Procharged v6

[v6maro]

So I'm thinking about procharging my car. And I'm pretty familiar with what I have to do in order to do this. I understand they don't make one specifically for the v6, but I'm pretty good at fabricating whatever I can dream of. So any ideas of parts or upgrades I need to consider ?

Start with a new transmission and rear to start with..you will need V8 drive line for starters.

Some people kill me, the engine will blow up before the transmission or rear end. I've run plenty fast on stock parts with a Vortech V3.

Stock V6 parts are stout! I thought I was going to have to upgrade to the SS rear diff but this little open diff in my auto has handled everything I've thrown at it and its seen plenty of abuse and 1/4 mile runs. I don't see any need at all to upgrade any of the driveline unless your running drag slicks and a converter. Even then I would love to see how much it could handle. I'm guessing the axles would prob be the weakest link but I don't think anyone has broke one yet. At least that I've heard of.

The open rear will go first on the v6 for all model years and then the TC for 2012 and prior v6's. My diff went out after 40k turboceharged miles making at least 50 less hp and tq than your car. I'm sure you've noticed that your car makes so much power that there is no more one wheel peel on a hard launch, locking up is not good for the open diff.

Lol yeah that's why I've stayed away from drag radials so far.

Lol that's a good decision, keep the launches reasonable. Even though I knew it would break eventually, I couldn't help myself. I liked pretending that I had an LSD, every one wheel peel killed me a bit inside every time.
