Should I Get a SC? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

N3WM4N21 · 02-28-2012, 04:36 PM

I have a 2010 camaro ss auto with cai, exhaust, and long tubes. I am thinking about gettin a cam, supercharger, and a throttle body ( not all at once ). However I do not want to replace my internals or any suspension parts. Could I get the parts I want or should I just get some of them? And how much hp can the stock internals and rear end handle safely?

You really do not have any need to get a throttle body with force induction IMO, the gains is next to nothing really.

We safetly leave most cars around the 550 rwhp range without meth injection, and have gone deep into the 800's with meth injection. Believe it not they both last very long even with heavy abuse if tuned correctly.

Feel free to give us a call and we can discuss all your options in length. 609-752-0321

If you want to leave your internals alone, go SC. I am pretty sure a Cam is considered internals.

On an Auto you should convert to an LS3 (VVT and AFM Delete) or you should at least do AFM delete (swap out the AFM lifters for LS7 lifters) if you are going to do a Cam. Both of these applications require the heads to come off.

Check this out to give you an idea on power thresholds of the engine.

Big Daddy Kane · 02-28-2012, 06:14 PM

Yes, you should get a supercharger!

Synner · 02-28-2012, 06:31 PM

The answer to should I get a supercharger is always: "Hell yes!!"

I think he was probably referring to the pistons and piston rods....when talking internals.

I have been at well over 600rwhp for over 5,000 miles now and over 700RWHP for about 2000 miles since adding meth injection and upping the boost to about 11.5.

Octane, octane, octane, I blend race gas with every tank and run the meth. I have a superior tune from Dallas Performance, considered one of the best!

My car is not a daily driver however and when i do take it out i am not very nice to it!
