Seriously.

I don't get it. There are thousands of parts for new cars, not the Camaro v6. What the F*#& people?!

I wish I had money/investors. This is so simple. Yes I understand the DI makes it a challenge, but this car has been available for sale since mid 2009. 18 months and no one can come up with a dyno-proven FI kit? I understand the hurdles and time management, but to an extent. There HAS to be SOMEONE out there with the SOLE job of getting an FI kit fabricated, installed, tuned, and ready to ship. Doesn't make ANY sense to me. Empty promises, false hopes, and hundreds of customers waiting, anticipating, hoping someone somewhere will follow through. I am completely disgusted with the aftermarket companies right now.

But Im not bitter about it or anything.....

Next time ask them what it take to make it a priority. After all, Camaro is out selling Mustang.

Well not to jack this thread, but I have been in contact with Procharger... I can't go into details, but I could be possibly taking my car to them in a month or so to help them get a kit out for the V6.

I'm very shocked that more cars are being boosted further east, rather than in Los Angeles. lol Which sucks on my part!

Dude, time for you to make a road trip.

Seriously, I was hoping to make it to CamaroFest II can't. Maybe some of the other guys with F/I can make it and you can compare notes there. Maybe you will be the first in NV???

I have contacted a few local shops here. When I first talk to them they are all up for it. Probably because they don't know there's no "full" tune for the v6. lol Because when I try and call back for a follow-up, they either don't call back or don't sound as interested anymore. lol

And personally, i'd much rather go SC at this point.

I would love to see someone do a custom SC just to prove it can be done. Keep looking and you'll find someone. Heck, if I can go to FL maybe you go to AZ or NM. There are a couple of shops down there that seem to be working on V6s. Just an idea.

Short story is SC2150 and I built it in his shop and he plans to turn it into a kit.

I almost had my centri SC setup finished but couldn't get a custom crank pulley made. I still have the bracket I made for the SC and if I could find a reverse rotation version of my SC I would run it directly off of the stock belt system. I used a powerdyne bd11a which is one of or if not the biggest lowend centri SC out there so the space is there! Check my old thread for pics and more info about what happened: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=116284
