wow 63hp gain awesome!!!OK, I finally got my hands on a dyno chart for a supercharged '03 CL-S 6-speed. Until our web guy can get it posted on the site, here are some numbers to whet your appetite. The car had headers and mufflers both before and after. It was running about 5.5 pounds of boost.

2000rpm +12hp +31ftlb
3000rpm +19hp +33.5ftlb
4000rpm +34hp +44ftlb
5000rpm +57hp +60ftlb
6000rpm +32hp +28.5ftlb
6800rpm +63hp +49ftlb

We make no guarantees regarding the life of your front tires with this kit. I hear it's capable of keeping the tires smokin' all the way thru 2nd gear (if you are so inclined). !!!!!!!! and 50lbft torque

sidemarker

wow those are some good numbers

does anyone know if the SC will void the warranty?

nvpscore

where did u get teh dyno, i went to CL and looked under dyno graphs, just see the headers..

typeR

if someone can figure out away to get the power to the ground this is low 13's

I told you guys it was impressive!

I have had the dyno for over a week, but no way to scan the damn thing in. This thing is going to be a monster!

........still waiting to see who will be the first to "pull the trigger" on this thing......

hey dean i will be the first getting it next week!!!!!!!!!! let you know how it feels

Nashua_Night_Hawk

so how much is the over all peak lb.ft and WHP numbers?

CLSmike

With my 75 shot it lights them up through 2nd if I do it right (right meaning wrong in speed figures) raced a nsx today and the guy is still looking for me. All those things are is a rwd cl type s with better handling and 2 extra cams

Mike

what's with the huge dip at 6k??

types1967

63hp and 50lb torque just the blower!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

types1967

its just a typo

Nashua_Night_Hawk

R we looking at 280 WHP? is so looking good... it is nowhere near that BS 315 WHP!..... As I estimated it should be near 275 -285WHP.

types1967

its just a typo with hp and tourque at 6000

CLSmike

Whats with the 25 horsepower drop from 5000 to 6000...thats usually where i pull hard.

JRock

And all that at only 5.5psi. That's awesome. Run that sucker at 10psi and rack up the kills.

CLSmike

run that sucker at 10 psi and we would need a high flow fuel system, but it would be a fun ride til you found that out

Rescuer

the comptech guy that came to the West coast meet with the supercharged 6 speed said that next year they will have an intercooler for it so you can up the boost

Mike

what are the #s supposed to be?

Rescuer

why are there 5 threads of the same thing posted by him?

moomaster_99

That BS powerfigure is probably the with the headers...hmmm, 30+whp with the SC....I guess it would be int eh 315 ballpark wouldnt it.

SiGGy

Since a 6MT CLS /w headers & intake dynos in at about 230-235hp I would expect 300hp (right around there) with 60hp gains from the SC.

315 might be doable...

Giddy up

With traction I bet you can run a 13.5 -13.2. So who's going to go buy one?

H@mmerm@n

Moderator Mike dyno'd his CLS with H/I/E at 236 peak HP, so add another 63 and you get 299. So your estimate was a bit conservative...don't break your arm patting yourself on the back.

EricL

The manual does have lower losses (viscous, inertial, etc) in relation to the automatic.

And, with the current compression and setup (and no BIG intercooler), expect the car to be ever more sensitive to ambient temperatures when getting dyno numbers (for comparison purposes)...

joedokes28

Is it just me or do those HP/TQ figure seem a little for an S/C on a car that is making 260hp stock. I might be wrong but those figures of 63hp and 49ft/lb seem less than a Jackson S/C makes on a B18c

evil98gt

I thought that those numbers seemed decent for only 5.5 lbs boost. intercooler will help a crap load. i dunno if its avail or if anyone researched it. but on the GTP's the high boost creates detonation...do they make a H2O kit for your cars with a supercharger...or is the supercharger something really new....these cars are very interesting. i think u guyz have started to hook me in

gavriil

I agree with the 280 HP at the fron wheels figure. It might actually be conservative. Hrere is a reference. I remember when the C5 Vette came out in 1997, the first dyno run gave 282 HP at the rear wheels. When the 1st year C5 Vette came out it made 340 HP at the crank. So there.

Another way to calculate:

Crank HP

Stock 260
Headers +20 (I know CT says it's plus 30 at the wheels but power is not cumulative when multiple mods are involved)
SC +60 (I know CT says that;s at the wheels)
Total 340HP.

gavriil

It looks like the SC is tuned for peak efficiency at mid rpm. So dont necessarily look at the peak RPM HP numbers. At 5000 RPM this will be once strong car.

scalbert

I know Florida is flat and lacks elevation changes along with most highways are very straight. But what about Sebring, that is a nice road course??

Point being, how long would a juiced vehicle last on a road course. After the first lap the blast is gone. Most drive their CL daily and do not care what it could do in the 1320 foot run when spraying; most want day-to-day ability. If all I cared about was great strip times I would have bought an SS and sprayed it. However, I purchased a CL for the comfort. But yet the potential suits well for the intention and enjoyed on the back roads where nitrous has no presence.

gavriil

gavriil

I can imagine a SCed CLS being really nice to drive while in motion. On the highway for example. Not from standstills and not in a race track with lots of tight turns. Which is fine because most of our driving I bet is on the highway. This SC makes this engine grow from 3.2 liters to 4.4 liters. Nice gains.

scalbert

The deto comes in around 12+ PSI boost on the GTP, typically. As for water injection, I was the first to try this with the GTP and still have limited hopes in it. But as I learned, it is a band-aid only.

gavriil

CT says on their website that the SC gives an extra 48-50 wheel HP.

gavriil

You own a GTP Scalbert?

Red Rider

Wow, lots of power lower, looking at 5000 on the dyno makes me drool.

H@mmerm@n

DOH! My mistake. :o

Mike

I merged the threads so ignore the double posts

scalbert

I did prior to the CL-S:

spiroh

The car that was supercharged already had the headers installed. So what I'm wondering, how much power would it put with no mods, and just the SC.
