Here is one of the first R&D dynos of our new VT3 kit based on the upcoming VT2 kit hardware + built internals and more boost. Further fine tuning should yield even better results.
Fuel is pump 93 only.
Boost pressure is ~16PSI
CR is 9.8:1
SC unit is Vortech V3 Si
587WHP SAE
394ft/lbs SAE
The new ESS S54 VT2 and VT3 kits utilizes an air-air intercooler and cast aluminium intake manifold similar to our CFR series S54 kits to make it lightweight and optimal for track use. Pictures of the new VT design will follow shortly.

HOLY SMOKES!!! On PUMP! GAME OVER!
And here I'm thinking that the upgrade to the CFR600 will suffice. Time for me to think some more and maybe consider going the drop-in piston route on my CFR.
Very impressive AJ!

AJ, What is expected price for Stage 3? Will you do the motor builds in your new AZ shop?

Very nice numbers. At first I saw 508 because the graph line split the 8, but then realized it was 587. Jesus Christ. Not critizing but inquiring about the CR. If you drop the CR to 9 like you did, shouldn't we expect HP? Now I know on race gas it would be well over 600HP.

AJ said he's not done tuning yet so it could be more, but heck that's very impressive!

Nice No`s AJ, looks like the V3 Si trim is very close to the V2 T trim. :str8pimpi
Now lets see what can be done on race gas.

Pricing has not been set yet, but I would expect the Stage 3 to be a ~4-5K upgrade kit from the Stage 2 +installation.
And yes, we will be doing both kit assembly, shipping, installation and engine builds from our new Phoenix, AZ facility.
Attached is pictures of our new shop in Phoenix which is currently being customized for our use.
