  • Supercharger Question

    Is it even viable to s/c an 08 GT with the 3500?

    Everything I've searched just comes up with people who talk but never actually do.

    yea no one wants to put so much into the car, but if you want to be the first please by all means. Just an FYI the biggest problem and this was with the two failed turbo attempts was with the tuning

        That's what I'm afraid of...

        Being first to do something means nothing to me.. I'd rather see it done elsewhere to know its even fesible.. I don't understand why there isn't much for performance for these cars.

        Oh, and I'm building this for a show car. Just trying to put all my ducks in a row.

                  yes that's true. it's just no one wanna risk the money and the chance of a blown engine, just like back in time almost no body wanna risk the chance to be hanged to say that the earth was a sphere.

                        I am not ruling it out just yet.. I am still researching it. if I can't figure something out by February, then it's on to a different idea.

                            Interesting... That's a great question.. I will have to look into this. Thanks.

                            you think the STS (Squires Turbo System) will fit under the rear bumper on the street edition?

                            I don't really plan on running a lot of boost, but obviously will upgrade the tranny.. I'm still trying to figure this g6 out.. I love the car but the lack of performance parts is boggling. G6s are abundant like civics around me. You'd think they'd have something worth while.

                            The tuning is what's scaring me.

                              For dollar for dollar value a turbo is better. I personally like superchargers but cost value a turbo will work better. Because there is no supercharger kit exsits except for a 3400 Super Charge kit from a company that was out of bussniess and that kit had shaft issues anyway.

                              So to fab up a kit and make one fit I would imagine your around 5-7K.

                              A custom turbo set up you should be able to get done and installed with tunning for around 3500-4500 depending on shop.
