Twin Turbo V6

RE: Twin Turbo V6
except the fact that you would need internals similar to the regals in order to boost it to those levels. displacement means very little to a motor. its about whats inside. the camaro 3.8L is far from bulletproof. it will grenade under low boost conditions pretty easily without an upgrade to the bottom end

RE: Twin Turbo V6
Wow, didn't know that. I need to keep that in mind when I build my V6. I believe that they are a stronger engine than other comparible V6's. You can build 'em to take a heck of a beating, but it is not cheap. I've been planning to build a nitrous engine for a very long time. But I had the bonneville back then, now I've got a camaro with the same engine. I guess the 3.8 is not as rock solid as I thought. Gonna have to do some work on the bottom end first.

from what ive read camarov6.com you can genneral get close to 10 lbs without to much upgrade....again i have a feeling sombodys gonna blast me on that but that is what my memory is telling me. but without continueing to re-enforce the engine at that amount of boost will not grenade it per say but will greately shorten the engines life.
