SC V6 QUESTION...
OK guys and gals, I have a guy I know who has a V6 either a 2012-2013 not too sure, but he recently super charged it he says and is supposedly putting 423hp to the wheels and 397tq. Is that even possible?? I have a 2011 V8 and after the big cam, stage 3 from TSP and all the mods needed to go with it I was only getting 470 to the wheels and 432tq. We added an LOD intake, retuned and am now at 510... So my question is 423rwhp possible from a stock rod V6 ?? Thanks in advance.. :noidea:

Yeah it's possible. Do you know which supercharger setup he had?
Remember, you have an old school OHV v8, and the LFX is a high-compression DOHC with Direct Injection Take a look at the v6 dyno thread, and go down to the boosted ones. https://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=475389 |

I have 1 v6 that I'm building and it's pretty fun, I was curious what a modern v6 was going to be capable of. |

My friends new Dodge pickup isn't Direct injected. GDi is by far the worst thing to ever happen to gasoline engines. Great for the replacement industry though. Washes the cylinder walls down, low speed pre ignition, carbon built up, special oil has to be used the list is endless. If you think you are going to buy a new car with GDI and drive it without doing MAJOR maintenance constantly good luck. My experience so far has been frustrating, always changing performance along with terribly washed down oil. At 4k the oil is cooked!

Camaro Bob, look at this oil analysis running our E2-X system for GDI engines. This is on a twin turbo V6 making over 20# of boost at over 13,000 miles on the oil. As our system provides full time flushing and evacuation most of the raw fuel, water, acids, and the rest of the damage and wear causing substances are removed as soon as they enter BEFORE they can settle and mix with the engine oil:
https://i1083.photobucket.com/albums...ps7l9mvzrs.jpg This patented design separates and contains 95% plus of all of this so substantial reduction in KR. Oil remains clean longer, wear is reduced, and we prevent up to 85% of the coking deposits (wish it was more but that 15% comes from EGR emulation back-filling and a slight amount from the valve guides. Fuel economy is also improved slightly as the engine operates at full timing advance with the KR reduced. Some trucks are still PI, but almost all passenger cars are now GDI. Cheers!! |

His sons 08 has 175k trouble free miles still runs good and hes not one to take care of things. I'd have to disagree, GDI is garbage engineering at its finest. The consumer assumes all the problems and the manufacturers try and solve poor engineering by engineering new oils. Pretty sad. My next vehicle will not be GDI. Once consumer's wake up to GDI's constant problems things will change. What gets me is this car doesn't get any better fuel mileage than any other car I've owned without GDI? absolutely no sense use such a complicated fuel system that's hard on the engine, needs specially engineered oil and MUCH MORE to maintain. Where are the savings for the consumer? THERE ARE NONE! If you ask me it looks like they finally engineered a toss away car. Another thing with these cars the dealer service depts. are completely dumbfounded trying to answer questions or repairing them. They made the car so complicated only a well trained engineer could understand them and repair them. I am a engineer, when I go to the dealer its priceless!
