Thanks I appreciate it!
I learned a TON in this video. Thank you man 🤙
Glad I could help!
This is 🔥🔥🔥
Awesome info brotha 💪
Thanks 🙏🏽
Good stuff, thanks!
Great video man!
Thanks!
Looking to buy a paxton kit soon so this was definitely helpful
Glad I could help!
Great video.
I can’t complain about the low-end torque on my ‘13 GT with a Paxton novi 2200SL, but I have BBK long tubes and high flow cats.
The exponential boost delivery is just ludicrous.
Thanks for the info!
No problem!
Just bought a 3V with a Paxton 2200 this video helped alot just had blow by last night and engine stalled hopefully I didn’t blow it 😂 freshly rebuilt too
Bro thank you, you just earned a subscriber 💯💯 you really helped me to all the issues I was having with my car
I appreciate it 💪🏽 glad I could help !
@@Jrgnthestreet u did forget to mention a couple extra ones. So first the coolant overflow tanks expand significantly and are prone to leaking and also belt slip. I have a couple belts slips. I swapped to a dayco belt and it immediately solved all belt slip issues.
Yeah I thought about those but I feel like they’re less common with most people. I personally never experienced the belt slip with the 3.8 but even if I did I feel like it’s an easier fix than most of the other issues. And the coolant tank just slipped my mind lol
@@Jrgnthestreet all good man. what is your ig i just have a couple questions for you.
i got it i sent you a pm.
Very well done!
Thank you!
Solid! Definitely considering a separator and blow-off. I got a procharger kit for my 2023, and a bit nervous about that killing my warranty, so any safety measures are better than none. Was thinking about doing it myself, but I don’t really have the setup to do everything right, so end of July I can get a shop to do it… but that’s so far out 😅 … didn’t realize I would have to remove the crank pulley bolt, thought it went through the stock accessory drive and it was just a simple bolt on 🤪
great video, awesome editing too
Thanks I appreciate it! You’ll definitely wanna get a crank support kit for any prochargers as they are known for snapping coyote cranks. The plus to a pro charger is if you blow a belt off it’ll still drive lol
This was a lot of help. My 14 gt coyote is knocking. And I'm hoping it's what you mentioned
Glad I could help
Saving up to by a Centrifugal Supercharger. Already got my Ben Calimer MT-82, Headers, Oil Pump Gears, etc. Thank you for this video, will most definitely be using it in the future for troubleshooting!
Glad I could help!
Make sure you have oil catch cans.
🔥🔥🔥
Great vid man thanks.. Would you have gone tvs knowing all these things or would you stay the way it is?
I honestly don’t know because tvs have their own set of issues as well and they’re more expensive and then there’s the almighty turbo which was my more likely choice I probably would have went that route even though turbos can be a pain as well atleast I’d know that I’d be getting the most power possible .
Good tips
Thanks!
The no-filter always messes with with me cuz I'm old and we had to drive down dirt roads makes me feel like I'm sucking an emery board through my intake. I guess it depends upon where you live.
🔥
Hair spray also works wonders !!!
There are ways you have to drive different with this setup to avoid some issues. I noticed you have to really DRIVE the car and get it warm first. If idle too often or short trips and driving low rpm’s high gear, get problems
I recognize that TH-cam library beat
Hey man send link for the turbo guard been looking for one
Nice buddy
Thanks!
Thanks
No problem!
Coming from a procharger on my 2014 GT. These issues are spot on! As for the low torque, at least it's better than stock lol. The major problem I had with the procharger was the fan shroud and fan provided by them. I alway had issues with that fan always burning the wires and blowup my fueses/fan resistor( wiring was not a wiring issue)
Have you managed to fix that? If so how and if not could you wrap the wiring with heat protective wrap?
@@engel4365 I never got to fix that issue before my car got rear ended by an 18 wheeler. I tried everything! Rewiring the fan directly to the battery, only powering up when I turn the ignition ON. I went through 3 fan resistors and so many fuses, I even bumped up the relays for higher amps thinking the fan was pulling a lot of power. The issue my not have been from the pro charger kit. I do believe pro charger could have done a Better job designing that kit so we wouldn't have to use that hideous fan shroud with an aftermarket fan. My issue was the fan wires were getting way too hot to a point that the wiring and resistor melted causing my car to overheat and bust the cap off the coolant tank because no FAN cooling the engine. Yes I also heat wrapped the wires but the head was coming from the copper wires itself.
Knock detected by the knock sensor is for detecting detonation in the engine. Not things physically clanking in the engine bay.
Yes however, the knock sensors are very sensitive in coyotes and sit directly under the intake manifold. things hitting in the engine bay can can be picked up by the knocks sensors and simulate knock which is why when tuning most tuners will call it “false or ghost knock”
I use hairspray so the couplers won't blow off just a old skool trick..
Just bought 04 with vortech supercharge..I have issues with air intake temp sensor code p0113.too much gas smell..any ideas
Might just need a new sensor or there could be a bad connection I’d check the sensor out for debris
I have a fox body with a vortex v3 supercharger and it loses pressure no mechanic can find what it is ?
Uhhh… if I had to guess I’d say either you have a vacuum leak somewhere and should do a smoke test if you already haven’t or… 🤔maybe you can swap Blow off valves because they are rated for different psi’s
Good stuff man. I was planning on a whipple for my 2020. However I'm interested in the new kit from ess. Apparently it's a great unit and affordable. I'm not looking for huge hp. 600 to the wheel would be enough. I don't want to end up replacing axels, clutches etc. Plus I'll be running a 275 rear tire so traction will be an issue. I just don't know if I'll need to upgrade my oil pump gears. I'll have fun with the car but I won't constantly be balls out and bouncing off the rev limiter
I haven’t done my opgs and (knock on wood) the cars been fine so far just be cautious like you said and unless it’s a drag radial I’d go a little bigger on the rear tire and make sure it’s a good performance style tire
@@Jrgnthestreet I just spent 3k on new rims and the rear is a 9.5 inch. Maybe I could run a 295 but I don't know. Michelin pilot sport 4s so they are a good tire.
Hmmm you may be ok
Going a bigger tire isn't going to help with traction....Its the compound and material that'll help... I ran 275's on alot of my cars. like camaro etc and people with 315's that were cheap as hell would spin like crazy while i'd have some chirp... Just food for thought. you gotta look at the material. Else you're adding weight for no reason
I know that’s why I told him to make sure it’s a good performance tire and he said he was considering the Michelin pilot sport 4s lol but I appreciate the comment either way
what option would let me see my timing and my knock on the nguage?
In the gauges you click on either the 6 or 4 pack then click on the one you want to change then hit signal then scroll through you’ll find it in there
💯
I had the cylinder 8 fouling out and wet
😎
Hi. I'm planning on getting the kit. Should I upgrade the clutch and fly wheel, and rear axles. Or no thanks for sharing.
Also what fuel system did you go with
Clutch and flywheel 100% or you won’t be able to use it like intended or you’ll likely break something. I had stock axles and they held up well. I was just on dw95 injectors and a boost a pump because I was just using pump 93 but I was going to switch over to fore innovations return style fuel system when I went e85
@Jrgnthestreet not going e85. Not spending $7 bucks a gallon.
@@Jrgnthestreet should I change the oil pump gears and sproket. I see other people doing it. Hope it's not too much money to install
@@brianpreston2911 damn idk where you live where e cost that much lol it’s usually cheaper than 87 here in PA. And opgs and crank sprocket are really one of those “you should do it but you may get away with not doing it “ type of things most auto cars don’t need it but manual cars should but most of us like myself didn’t and got away with it lol. Unless you’re bumping the rev limiter up or getting a 2 step then I’d say without a doubt do it . But either way it’s going preventative maintenance.
Do you daily with the turbo guard on?
Kinda, I don’t really daily the car I have a truck i daily but every time I drive it I just use the turbo guard
Those rims look nice, and they look thicc
Oops, I forgot tires
2nd summer I've had my paxton on my 14. Only issue I've had was the piping popping off. I even bought the jpc t bolt clamps which are stronger but still popped one lol.
Just one of the cons but I still love it. Max flo bov here too!
After I got the t bolts I made sure I tighten them as much as possible and even broke some in the process lol but overall they’re a lot better than the stock ones. And the max flo is the best!
So how much boost are you running? I ordered this kit with the 3.6 pulley but been seeing alot of people talk about the fluttering with the bov that comes with the kit.
I’m at like 8.5 psi with my boost gauge readings I’m on a 3.8 pulley .
@@Jrgnthestreet wow you were getting fluttering with the 3.8? I'm really gonna have to upgrade to the maxflow race.
Yeah I think I started getting it when I went to the jlt intake but with the stock air box I think I was fine
@@Jrgnthestreet yeah I got air intake that with the package. I just ordered the Race bov about 30 minutes ago so hopefully all goes well. I have an 18 ported mani, BBK long tubes,I'm hoping to at least get between 600 to 650 to the wheels.
You’ll definitely be in that range!
Won’t won’t bink!
wheres the fish
