I was wondering the power curve diff between your guys setup and mine, then I noticed the stock intake still.
I bet with a boss intake the car would be close to 1100!!!!

Interesting HP results from a supercharger that free flows 1450 CFM. There are many calculators that will convert CFM into max HP potential. However, I believe that converting CFM to lbs per minute is more accurate.
D1SC free flows 1400 CFM
Novi 2200 free flows 1450 CFM
P(psia) x V(cu.ft./min) x 29
(10.73 x T(deg R)
This formula tells me that the Novi 2200 will support up to 922 flywheel HP. However, Paxton claims 1000 flywheel is possible in a perfect world.
Conventional CFM to HP compressor map calculators suggest that 966 flywheel is possible.
I'm certainly not suggesting that they fudged the numbers. However, I would like more info on how they achieved over 1200 at the flywheel with the 2200 Paxton.
Mine is currently making 960 rwhp, that is on the 6 rib through the auto trans, with a larger pulley 2.95. JT trim, very similar to the 2200, just the Vortech name plate.
I found it interesting too, that the blower is rated for 1000 crank. I'm guessing with the 8 rib and a 2.75 we should be able to crack 1000 rwhp as well.
These blowers are just nasty. Paxton & Vortech, definately the best bang for the buck
Out of curiosity what are you using for a crank pulley? My 2200 with 2.95 blower and 10% crank pulley is spinning roughly 63000 rpm (which is max reccomended) at 7200 engine rpm and I only see 21 psi with BB 302, ported heads, and cams. I would think that you would have to significantly over spin the blower to reach the HP levels both you and the JPC car are making, in any case both are very impressive.
^^Thats awesome Beef!! Now i just need the funds to order a 2200..
