well vortech and procharger will give you the best numbers

I know someone who had a Powerhouse turbo on his V6 and with supporting mods ran 10.99 in the 1/4. How do you like those numbers?

Well you could try this set up. It looks like it could get you into your range.

Be more constructive with your replies, you shouldn't have agreed with him!!!!!

Just kidding



Don't worry about numbers, go with what is reliable and what works best for you. Some kits will give you higher numbers, but are a lot more work to maintain/install, where as other kits may not be as powerful but are much easier to isntall and maintain.

Just do some research on turbo's and supercharger and read a lot, because outside of selling your V6 or dropping in a V8, you won't get what you are looking for.

Actually, the intercooled X-Charger X-Treme is CA smog legal

Check it out!



Plus here's an emissions test from just last week. I'm not due until 2013 though.



Carbon monoxide levels are 0%. You can practically breathe the exhaust

I used to have a 98 v6 with basic liability and was looking at an 04 GT with basic liability. The GT was 50$ cheaper a year.

However, when I went from 98 v6 basic liability to 06 GT decent full-coverage, not so good
