Well it
looks like we are at it again... We now have the new Vortex ram
Induction system for the 08 vette. Vortex Ram Induction proven on
the race track and dyno to be the world most powerful Ram Induction
System.
We just
finished designing and testing our new Vortex Ram Induction System
(First Production Ram Air System for the C6)for the 08 Corvette and
have some interesting results. First let me explain how we get our
results. We do all the runs on the same day and within 30 min of
each other. The first 5 runs were done using the stock system.
Second 5 runs with the Vortex Ram Induction System. Another 5 runs
with the stock system and yet another 5 runs with the Vortex Ram
Induction System. All the runs were on our C6 08 stick Z51 Corvette
with a Magnaflow exhaust. All runs done with the hood down and a
high flow fan in front.
Results on
stock system between 378.4 RWHP and 380 RWHP
Results
with the Vortex System Between 390.4 to 393.2 RWHP
This is
with no programming done to the system. LTFT were between -2 to -4
and wide open AFR was 10.5 to 10.7 That’s about 17 HP gain on 10.5
AFR
If
programming is done and AFRs are set to 12.7 to 12.9 gains should be
between 26 to 30 HP not including the ram air effect.
This test
before programming was done to insure performance results without
having any check engine issues without the programming being done.
We do still recommend a good computer tune to further enhance the
power level.
We figured
the stock system was still restrictive and still picking up the hot
air from the engine compartment. Our Vortex system has again proven
itself to be the #1 Ram Induction due to its design and the first to
the market for the C6. Our ram air system has the Vortex Ram
Induction Box, Powerduct and all couplers as a complete kit. No need
for a throttle body spacer that does nothing.

Just
came
back
from
Moroso
drag
strip....Hot
muggy
night.
Just
took
off
my
OEM
air
intake
and
my
Vetteair.
My
car
is a
08
LS3,
A6
with
melrose
headers,
SLP
cat
back
and
a
Mike
Norris
tune.
Just
added
the
the
BPP
Vortex
and
beat
my
best
previous
time
by
.2
and
ran
a
higher
top
speed.
New
best
for
my
car
11.9
@118mph.
Previous
best
12.1
@
116mph.
Similiar
race
conditions
(DA
2500).
Can't
wait
for
some
cooler
conditions.
Car
was
not
retuned
after
the
Vortex
was
installed.
I
think
that
extra
air
from
the
Vortex
helped
me
achieve
this
improvement.
