Looks like you're going to put our kit to the test! Love it! Can't wait to see the results!

Might have to make a v6 drag kit only at this rate haha.

Well, the good news for you is that you will be in the 11's before me. I think our cool weather is already done for this season. Been hitting mid 80's a lot now. I might have to bite the bullet and go after work one eves, think its my best chance for cool weather. Hate making a 2 hour drive from work to get there though.

I know the frustration... I'm missing all our cool air too. But sounds like our local track is a mess right now anyway with all their no prep concrete racing they're doing.

Coils made it in today. Hopefully it wasn't money wasted. Odd that it says GM/Suzuki 3.6 on the box.

Fabberge shipped all my new wastegates and 3" V-banded downpipes today. Should be here Tuesday. I'm pretty exited about it, these are supposed to be very high flowing wastegate setups so should make a little more power with these GT28's and solve the boost creep problems that the old setups cause. On the old setup the wastegate flapper could only open about 10-15 degrees which doesn't allow the boost pressure to escape fast enough. The new ones allow the flapper to fully open. This should help me have a nice steady number on my boost gauge and flow much better.

Here's an article about the new wastegate design from ATP Turbo if anyone wants to read about it. The new setup isn't cheap but I think it's worth it with the extra power I'll be making this go round.

3 inch downpipes that transition into 2.5" and hook up to factory exhaust or cat back. Looks nice!

JantzenOKC · 03-08-2016, 09:55 PM

3" high flowing vband setup with new swingvalve wastegates that open ALL the way.

Droooooooool.

I am so jealous.

I almost had Procharger talked into developing a kit for the V6 and using my car as the test bed....and they just backed out saying not enough interest they fear.

So I am just going to have to keep saving my pennies until i can TT. Go big or go home right?

Love this build thread.

I think a procharger would be pretty slick on these cars.

Procharger says they are "months" away from anything for 5th gen V6 camaros. They said they are working on new camaros and challengers first. That would certainly be a great option if possible.

Pro charger would be cool!
