I'm not talking about throwing a Supercharger on and tuning it with a bunch of other bolt ons, we all know that route is a bomb with a slow burning fuse, 11:1 compression + Boost = Boom. It isn't if, it is just a question of when, but hey to each their own and believe what you want to believe. I guess what I'm saying is, people who live in glass houses should not throw stones.

To the OP, good luck with the build and I hope it goes well!

Just so that this thread is not a total waste - I would like to see a reputable shop chime in and validate or discredit the claims that the OP has made.

In my opinion, I cannot ever see a STS kit producing 20-30 psi. Just the quote of 20-30 psi in itself show some level of questionable knowledge as there is a massively huge difference in making 20psi compared to making 30 psi. Then the question is - can a V6 block handle even 20 psi? I am very aware that the crank are noted as being factory built strong parts but throw 20 psi at anything not forged and you will seperate the boys from the men.

So the question is - is this at all possible given the budget, platform and mods the OP mentions? 20 - 30 psi + 150hp shot = explosion on some of the strongest of built engines, no less a 305hp rated V6.

Someone should build an old school Buick V-6 turbo for a Camaro. Start with a 4.1L iron block, built right those will hold huge boost. Today's basic aluminum DOHC passenger car V-6's will just scatter itself at high boost/power levels.

To see some real V-6 power, do some youtube searching for 7 and 8 second Grand Nationals.

Not for 20k you aren't getting 30psi in a stock v6.

Haters hate.

C5 deserves better.
Besides, its his car and hes free to do whatever he wishes to it. I for one cant wait to hear more.
Just my .02, if its worth anything here since I drive a "6 banger".

Seinfeld666, have fun modding and welcome to C5
Aaaand he's banned.

I would absolutely agree with you if the guy wasn't an obvious troll. But he made claims that were just simply bogus. I submit that it would have been worse for him if he wasn't called out.

His weak link won't be the engine but transmission. Not sure about the rear. I say go for it and build it. GM thinks its a tuff engine, lets see if they are right.
I agree with you here BUT it was just obvious that he was fos.

Here is what Hurst is saying...
With a single Turbo...

It doesn't give final numbers. I"m guessing nowhere near the OPs claim. It just says 50% more power..... Whatever that means.

Not true.

Of course there are all kind of people in every group, but in this case the OP came in obviously trying to antagonize. And nobody told him anything that wasnt' true.

It works both ways. People who 'troll' for or antagonize more are in the same equation. Would this guy have done this face to face. NOT without a smile on his face.

Face to face this whole conversation starts with his comment, and ends with laughter from both sides. He was not serious. OR, he would be serious and explain exaclty how he plans on doing it.

So what? There are 100% electric cars running 10s.

We are talking about THIS platform. And we are talking about power and torque.

I also thought about this. The car mentioned from Hurst was claiming, I'm assuming just under 500 horse power and I have no doubt it was a stick. 3 to 4 percent less drivetrain loss and a more solid tranny makes a difference.

From my Headers, to x pipe, to Stype exhast, CAI, and Supercharger I have about 7k in it. Sorry you have to pay so much.

Honestly not being negative... but i would by the 2ss in your situation. and then with the rest either use it for gas money, or look for some basic mods that would be effective.

You gotta be a pretty good troll if your thread is still getting to people after you are banned. If he is banned why hasn't this thread been closed? The humor has worn off.

He wasn't banned for this thread.

Nor does it appear he was banned for his response to anything in this thread.

He did, however, speak strongly in another thread.

As I read through it this morning I found myself hoping he was serious and Torq was gonna do it.

The Hurst car is interesting. It claims 500 RWHP-ish. The link that was put up in this thread.
