Default LS1 Supercharged FD on road.

Just took my first drive in the LS1 FD today. Teh car is tighter than the TII. Everything seems to work great, as the first 1/8th mile were to the floor. i am waiting on LS1 edit to do the programming on the PCM for the procharger, for now I have removed the belt. The 3.5" exhaust is quieter than the dual 2.5 since I installed a smalll Moroso spiral race muffler under the driveshaft. This is a tight fit with all the intercooler and blower up front and it seems to be heavier . I will see if I can get some pics. The only thing that I cant seem to get working is the speedo. I have the Dakota Digital sgi , but I think i may have hooked it to the wrong wire. I was hooking it to the green wire in the emmissions harness, but I dont have any luck. If there is anybody out there successful with this who knows where to connect and what to connect to it would be great.

Default mounting location of Pro Charger

Does the Pro Charger mount to the lower area of the motor on the drivers side? What psi. do you intend to run when you have the car sorted out? Some of the innercoolers are the smaller "box" type, others are very long and mount up front. Which type do you have? That's enough questions for now, thanks.

Low mount F body. I believe the pulley is the 3.6 " so that may give me 5 to 7 psi depending on exhaust and intercooler efficiency, which is a front mount14"x 26"x3 1/2".
