ESS VT2-585 + ESS X-pipe dyno
We had a customers car in this week that had our VT2-585 supercharger kit and high flow cat X-pipe installed. I wanted to share the gains our X-pipe made for those that have inquired as to the HP / TQ it adds when paired with one of our supercharger systems.
This car had the stock rear section on all runs and was using 91 octane fuel. |

whats the dip at 3k rpm? let off the throttle or?
and I like how the graph is a little smoother on the runs with the x pipe. im assuming that's a result of the car being able to hit its timing targets better due to better flow and less heat. good stuff, I hope to add a 550 kit one day |

wow, 40 whp gains from just an xpipe. I wonder how much a difference there is going from a race pipe to xpipe though.

WOW!! Insane gains!!
Still amazes me what these aftermarket X-Pipes and Test Pipes do, both for NA and FI application.

Doesn't the Akra HFC x-pipe have a dip as well?
This dyno isn't helping my decision to "be happy" with my car's power. I keep telling myself that my vt2-625 loves 4 cats + 2 resonators

How well do the cats hold up with the supercharger kit? In my previous Aston Martin that I supercharged, the stock cats melted and disintegrated. Even the replacement high-flow cats didnt survive.

This was done at our facility in AZ. As long as you have a baseline on any dyno the whp really makes no difference high or low as long as you can measure the delta gains. This car made 335-340 whp stock on this same dyno. Delta gains with the VT2-585 alone were 150 whp over stock and 190 whp over stock with the X-pipe. This type of comparison is all one should really care about.
