I saw a dynoed v6 with only long headers bolted get 33 hp
GM is certifying that the v6 is 312 hp, which I thought was rwhp, not crank hp
STS claimed 500 hp at the crank, is that with or without aftermarket boltons. Is that even proven? So having STS would definately put the v6 at over 400 hp, right? If it is at 350, then I think I misunderstood some facts. Someone said something about getting the v6 to over 600hp? I am interested and confused, but more interested. i might not need to trade for a v8 soon for over 600 =)

wow, that was a little tough to read. lol First, the v6 camaro has 312hp at the crank. Most cars have been putting down 230-250hp to the wheels, all stock, and depending on automatic or manual transmission. So with the STS turbo, we are seeing 350hp to the wheels (~100hp gain). And I believe that was on 5psi of boost. Bump up to 6psi and with the meth kit, should be 400hp or more to the wheels (~500hp at the crank). It would take more work and more money to push 600hp at the crank on this v6. Unless you just did a 100shot of nitrous on top the the turbo.
