Stay tuned for her turbo build. It'll be starting later this year.

 

^Oh Damn! How much boost are you looking to get out of it??

 

friend of mine ran 6 lbs and was sitting about 300-350 crank power,,,, looking at about the same?

 

I'm aiming for 8-10lbs. The stock block can safely hold about 12 lbs. I don't want to push it too far though with this block. It'll run like that for awhile, then she's getting basically a new performance block from Intense Racing. Total engine rebuilds will be about 3, one has already been done. She'll end up having well over 200K miles on the body, probably more. Total cost, I have no idea. Money isn't really what I'm concerned about in this case. It's hardcore raping V8s and shutting certain people up about V6s. I want to eventually hit 11s, maybe 10s with her. 10s is kinda pushing it though. I still want her to be street legal and fun to drive whenever I want, not just on the track. I'm hoping to start buying parts this year and getting that going. I have to get a new DD before tearing her apart again.

 

I'll sell you my car as a DD

 

Haha nah that's ok. I'm looking to get a 5 sp Cobalt. If I get this job I'm interviewing for on Monday, I'll need something fairly fuel efficient. It's about an hour away. I don't want to put too much stress on Sof running that far 5 days a week.

 

you know music man is going through this right now and is no where near that and been doing this build for a long time... ? not saying you cant do it, jus def gunna be quite the build to reach 11s

 

I'm not expecting to reach 11s any time soon. That goal will be with the new engine for sure. 8.9 on the quarter was reached by a turbo V6 Firebird. It's possible.

 

i know i read that artical, however that, was a 30k$ bid,,, are you really gunna put that much into it? i just dont see the point,,, buy a used porsche lol

endured 7100 rpm for 5 miles at bonneville, and 700 hp in their 1/4 mile turbo track car. it wont be boosted as much as it will run pump gas, but 500 hp from it when its done wont be a far stretch
