Hey there,

Stillen is doing a Callaway supercharger install on an ’03 Vette – starting tomorrow. Going to do before and after dyno runs on our in-house DynoJet. Hope to be able to post the charts and some info on the install within the next couple of days. Watch for updates.

Thanks

That sounds really nice! I will look forward to seeing the results you folks get from that. I have always enjoyed the cars that Stillen has put out over the years and I am sure that this one will be just as good!! :cheers:

Hey there,

As promissed - here is the before install dyno run. Not bad if ya ask me - 311.72 RWHP and 328.46 RWTQ. Will be very interesting to see the results AFTER the install. Will post pics of the car also (purchased an RK Sport hood through us).

Those are awesome numbers!!!! What aftermarket exhaust is on it?

Sounds like normal numbers for a pretty stock C5. I see a little knock retard going on at 3000 and again at 4500 in that dyno graph. Pretty normal for a stocker as well. This is going to be fun!

Callaway supercharger? You mean Magnuson? Does Callaway own Magnuson these days?

Hey there,

Yes, its a Magnuson - but its sold through Callaway. Callaway has some partnership with Magnuson for delivery of Corvette superchargers. The tune actually comes from Callaway. If it were a supercharger for a Mustang or say a GTO it would be a Magnuson.

You should stop in some time. We are also the North American Distributor for AP Racing brakes (a good upgrade for a high horsepower Vette) :)

Hey there,

Completed the install and did one initial dyno today (problems with the dyno). Here is from todays pull. Have the customer coming back in one day next week and will do a little more dyno time and post a better chart. Figured I would at least show ya this :)

Hey there,

Sorry for the slow reply. These are from my phone - not the best, but hey - thats what I have. We also have a video of the dyno run - which I will TRY to post tomorrow. Like I said, have the customer coming back in next week for another set of dyno pulls also. If the last pull is even close though - thats pretty amazing - over 150 RWHP increase.

Enjoy

Looks great! Now I know what that Vette looks like and I will not mess with it if I see it on the road!! As soon as our black Vette has some work done in the next couple of weeks I would like to come and visit you folks again. This way you will be able to see our other project Vette. Have a nice evening!

Ahhh, there we go! Very nice you guys! I would imagine that that customer is going to be extatic when he/she gets their Vette back for the first time and drives it!!:burnout:

Hey there,

The customer called me late yesterday evening. Said it brought a HUGE smile to his face. Had a bunch of kind words to say because of the service he received also (of course) :) Will be interesting to see what the next dyno pull shows. Seems like a HUGE increase in power to be just by doing a SC install.

Hey Greg,

Would love to have you stop by. Shoot me an e-mail when you are coming by (PageN@Stillen.com) so I can make sure I am available to see the car :)

Thanks
