Wegner built this monster for us for project "N-XSS". It is a 418 LS3 with a TVS2300 running 15 lbs of boost. Custom front drive system, one off CNC inlet to accept 102 mm throttle body, and the list goes on. I will have specs as soon as Wegner sends them to me. Front drive system will eventually be available for purchase, pricing has not been set yet, but should be available in 2 different packages. We will let everyone know when it is available. Enjoy!

Casey is a master at what he does. It is a awesome system. I have watch Randy Johnson run the snot out of his car for what must have been 40 autocross laps and road coarse laps at Muscle Car Challenge, and zero belt issues.

wow, great numbers!

makes me wonder why a magazine only got 800 on their blown LS7 recently! Maybe a boost # thing.

15" of boost or 15lbs of boost? Makes a big difference and just wanted to check.

Good catch...14.4 lbs. of boost to be exact

That's not a lot for those power levels. I for one would love to see a graph showing power, torque and boost!

I take it Wegner is still open? (I thought they filed bankruptcy this year?)

I take it Wegner is still open? (I thought they filed bankruptcy this year?)Very much, they filed Chapter 11, to reorganize, I believe. We never had any issues while they were going through the process. I would not hesitate to business with Casey again anytime

Casey sent over the dyno sheet the other day. Numbers are SICK and may warrant bolting the tranny in 6th gear permanently

That boost is niec and flat, blower obviously still has some headroom, does it just have a manifold pressure plate or is it using a BOV to tune boost?

It's crazy to see such a small (physically) engine make so much power. No tubes everywhere, or big blower off to the side of the motor. Nice compact engine that makes almost 1000hp. Crazy how technology has helped improve things so much.
