Default mods and 1/4 times

I have yet another question what are the best mods to do at first for this beast. Also where can you find a super or turbo for these. Does anyone know what psi you can run on the stock internals? He is gonna either super or turbo it soon so I am just curious. Also what is the estimated quarter time for a manual 06 V6 VS a auto 06 V6. not much difference right? But what are the estimated times anyways? Thanks

The Powerhouse Turbo V6 car has been run 12 PSI since last summer on a stock 4.0L.... no problems... they've made an awful lot of passes at the track! LOL! I'm guessing your quoting the SSM "article"....

Got a question... would a supercharger work better on an auto rather than a turbo? Figured since turbos need some rpms to kick in it wouldnt make that much difference right off the line. Make sense?

makes no difference really, with an auto when you kick it down throtle pressure is greater than govener pressure which make you downshift, getting you into the RPMS, with your foot to the floor governer pressure slowly overtake throtle pressure to makes its up shift, but your rpm's will still be in the meat since your foot is still to the floor, only untill you let off the gas will you loose your spool as your RPM'S drop
