100+ package Might soon be available!!!!!!!!!!

[94conv.]

just curious, as far as power goes, how does the cars with just the vortex supercharger or maybe even another aftermarket supercharger compare to the calloways? I know there is no substitute for a calloway, its a pedigree along with quality but I was just curious on the power ratings or comparisons.

For a comparison, the same track / same conditions should exist...

The only time I saw two forced induction Vettes run side by side @ the same time, same track, it was a 1987 B2K Callaway -vs- a 1988 "B&M SuperVette"

Both cars were on street tires, both cars had straight exhaust - B&M SV had "true duals" while the B2K used the "semi-stock" megaphone exhaust, sans cats.

The Callaway ran a 12.7, B&M SuperVette ran a 12.8 :eek

This was back in the "early days" of efi forced induction, 1989 or 1990, if I recall :cool


I hope this helps

B&M SuperVette is all the way on the right:

Here is the B&M Engine compartment:

Josh I do not know what the price of the unit is. I would say somewhere around $300 as it is done by the folks in Germany. Also Josh if you can let me know who else is interested in the 100+. There is power in numbers The more people I know that want the upgrade the more leverage I have in getting it to the table and off of the drawing board. We should know at Carlilse for surewhen it will be available . Keep the faith it will come. The folks at Callaway know how much I want this kit. Everytime I see them they always say Yes Pete YOU WANT THE 100+ KIT we will talk about it. It is alot of work to make that manifold . It is just getting the time to do it as it is very labor intensive. So we are making progress. Thanks Pete

Surf - I forwarded your friends name onto Callaway - If anyone else is seriously considering a 100+ package for their B2K, Please reply here and Callaway4Fun will add the name to the list - As he said, the more interest, the better the odds of taking this to the production table - It is a legendary package that is blessed by the Callaway power Gods :cool

Im sure they know his name quite well up there. I guess Id better call him and let him know you signed him up :L

Surf, If it the gentleman in AK, w/ two 1988's, we discussed the 100+ extensively in Chicago this past November :cool

He mentioned this would be for the 1988 that has some "mod's" already

Thats him....but he lives in Arkansas(AR) not Alaska(AK) Just kiddin man....its the same as the O vs A for us Callaway owners. Most people dont even know where Arkansas is :L :L :L

I believe his 88 with true duals, wonderbar, no mufflers made 406rwhp. It also has a Tommy Morrison balanced and blueprinted ZF6 in it. He said its the best shifting transmission he's ever driven. The car also has Aerobody and its a vert. A very nice b2k example.

Love it!

It will have the leather treatment and a roll bar soon as well as the 100+ Kit

Pete, your out of control & I love it. :crazy What year B2K's were the 100+ an option?I am presently restoring my 87 just the way it left Callaway so only options that were available for 87 are possible.ALSO,you will love the interior & bar.After 12 years mine is as good as new with that great Connelly leather aroma.Good Luck.

 

[8388]

I believe that if you up grade any Callaway with Callaway parts, it won't take away from the value, infact it may even help, especially if it's all documented.

Callaway 100+

Callaway offered that upgrade to the other years . I believe there was 1 1987 2 1988 1 1989 1 1990 2 1991 I believe there may be a couple more out there. I do not think it would hurt the value only add to it . I do not know when the 100+ kit became available but I know that when my car was ordered it was available that was in December of 1988

Absolutely and 110%

I agree 110% with that statement - Wonderbar, 100+, AeroBody, Wheels & Tires, Floor Mats, or even a shifter knob, If it is FROM Callaway Cars and has doccumentation, it adds value no matter what year the car is, and when the upgrades were done :cool

 

[90Callaway]

Put me down as interested in the 100+ kit. I'm hoping that there will be actual dyno numbers available once they've completed the kit and of course pricing...

I would happily volunteer my car for R&D provided i got a HUGE price break on the kit :L :L :L My car is certainly no stranger to having run on the rollers

100+ Project developement car 1989 #016

Hey Josh I have already volunteered my car for the product developement work. The least I could do for Callaway being that I am always asking for the 100+ upgrade. I am relentless Just ask Mike Zoner! LOL

I think I'm too far along on my 87 to change direction.Looks like I might have to get me another one for the 100+.

Tony, You'll be o.k. - the only thing that you have done so far that would not be reused is the refinished TPI

You got me thinking.

 

[8388]

I'd up grade to 88 and newer turbos.

Confused

What does the 100+ consist of?For $12,000+/- it better be more than a manifold change.

Tony, it is a package consisting of the following:

The Callaway "100 Plus" (Horsepower) option content is a rare & powerful option that was only installed on a select few B2K's.
This Option added 100 horsepower to the already amazing power ratings they left Old Lyme with.
The option consisted of a wide range of enhancements which all worked as a system to upgrade the entire engine and the results speak for themselves

Option content is as follows:

*Intake Manifold
(custom intake/plenum assembly)
*Fuel Rails
(high flow/high capacity rails)
*Fuel Pressure Regulator
(modified reg. for the addl. volume)
*Fuel Rail Tubing
(SS tubing)
*Throttle Body
(ported 52mm TB)

i thought the bottom end of the motor was beefed up as well? ie getting a strong forged connecting rod in there.
