Here is one dyno comparison that I know of. This is a local kid who went with Wes to save some money. He was told by Wes that not only is it the same port job, but also that Wes himself had watched Brian port the superchargers.


Here is Scotts before Wes porting Dyno






Here is Scotts after Wes Porting Dyno




It looks like he gained about 8-10 H.P. and lost about 10lbs of torque.

I couldn't agree more!!!

Brian, I appreciate your opinion and truly value any comments you have to say about Ported Eatons. Yes I made up the name WASP, and as most of us know Wes (or the Wasp II) no longer looks like mine. (now it looks even more like yours, )
Well it's does.....
There is no doubt in my mind, that you and your company (APTEN)
have many years of R+D, blood and sweat into the proper porting
for the S/C's you specialize in modifying.
My hats off to you for that and I'm sure there is some power to be made in all that R+D

All I can say is, after the install of the WASP, the Diff was night and day and immediatly felt. The Boost is outright amazing, I have 10-12lbs of boost at 1/4 throttle, and every bit
of 15/16 at WOT using a 4lb Pulley ONLY, (not warm enough for my upper pulley to go back on yet, BUT SOON )
When you stab it, the Eaton just pulls and pulls and continues to pull LIKE IT NEVER DID BEFORE. Best $300.00 I ever spent.

Had Apten been willing to show me pic's of something I was about to buy, I may have wen't with it in the first place, but weather I got the port jobs of port jobs or not, I did get something that added serious power sound and boost to my Beast, and I have no regrets at all.

As for you Gator, your gonna need the extra Power, cause I'm still gonna WHOOP YO ***, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....
Unfortunatly, thanks to YOUR lack of plannning, AND NOT ANSWERING YOUR E-MAILS, it may not be at Cecil.......
I'M NOT HAPPY @ THAT,
but no more openning's, missed deadlines, and I wrote and got no response (don't even know if I could make it now anyway, things are real crazy over here right now ???

 

BTW

Funny how you guys forgot to mention Scotts Boost wasn't working because of a problem HE LATER FOUND AFTER THE DYNO.

And even more funny how you forgot to mention he has a post right now about him going to the track yesterday and running
the best ever ET's one after the next, and he's now in the 12's, AND STILL HASN'T COMPLETELY FIXED HIS PROBLEM
(he's doing that next weekend I believe he said)

Bet he's happy as a pig in schitt right now, HE SHOULD BE
I talk to him fairly often on private e-mails

 

I've talked to Wes through email, Brian in person, and a few other vendors. I haven't went with any of them yet, but I found them all to be knowledgable about the product and responsive to questions.

I think the bottom line is if price wasn't a factor, everyone would go Apten. I believe in their engineering and that their design will get the last drop of potential horsepower. What is hard to find info on is how much is the difference. If it is 3HP for $300 more, that wouldn't be worth it to me.

The other aspect is reliability and warranty. I'm interested to see deep into the race season if any of the blowers start to fail. Maybe none will or maybe a specific design will be more prone to failure.

Anyway, I'm taking a wait and see approach.

NO to all you smartazzs, i'm dropping out of this thread because i'll get banned otherwise.........read between the lines on that......in the rules its says no vendor bashing or putting vendors down.........i do not advertise any service and will not. the only reason people send me blowers is because other people have talked good about them.......so trash me all you want, (the few of you who are)...all it will do is make my name bigger....i've gotten near 100 emails in the last two months just because of people saying they were pleased with there blowers, or they liked the one i did for myself.. Like i said, i got a job..this is just some side money to me. Everyone who sends me a blower knows that. I'm sure not everybody who has received the apten job hasnt been 100% satisfied. i've seen where it only did 18 hp on a truck in a post here about a month ago...i'm sure he was mad that he didn't get the advertised 30-40... BIG DEAL>>>>>not everyone will be happy or get the same results. and DYNO DYNO DYNO.....this place sounds like supra forums...track times are where its at , and i think scott is happy with his new times.

 

why would i even say such a stupid thing....i live in alabama, i'm sure not gonna go watch brian port a supercharger, if im not mistaken , he doesnt even do the porting. he just represents it or something. maybe they should put you on the pay roll.....

 

Hey Rob, Seat of the pants can be misleading, I added headers and high flow cats and the truck feels faster but alot of that has to do with sound. Until I run at the track or dyno I wont know crap, Have you Dyno'd or run yet ?


Wes Youve advertised under the radar or in a grey area for months now, I dont understand what would make you stop now. Im sure as long as you gave info from the point of view as it applies to your charger on your truck the moderators wouldnt mind. If you have no facts to back your product I also understand your position

trying to start new post

 

You Bastard!

255's going in this weekend and the 50 lbers going in next week, on my stock longblock.
Will it hold together?
Will it chit the bed?

Stay tuned after the 17th

But, It might have a built shortblock real soon.........hehe

 

Never Dyno'd in my life, and prob won't.
I have no interest in Dyno #'s, ET's is what it's about to me.
Seat of the pants may be misleading, but Extra Power, Extra Boost, and Extra Lose Of Control is no imagination.

BELIEVE ME THE WASP KICKS ***, and it added MUCH POWER,
there is no mistaken it

BTW here's some interesting reading from Scott




Hmm, wonder what it will dyno at now
