It's a turbo whatever it is...

Re: 443 HP 3.6???

Even with a turbo it wouldnt be close to that unless he totaly rebuilds his drivetrain... Thats a lot of power to the stock trans to hold and he doesnt say anything about tranny upgrades.

B to the S.

A BPU 3.6 isn't going to get that.

Re: 443 HP 3.6???

I dont see a turbo or anything but then again im no car guru. Even with a turbo id say 350

Read his list of mods.... I just don't think they add up.

Yea this guy is full of shit.

Re: 443 HP 3.6???

in one pic he points out you can see his CAI but last time I checked CAI are not turbos.

Either his car domain isnt completely updated or he has no idea what hes talking about. Or maybe that dyno is just not calibrated.

But then again, he is in the military and used his bonus or tour money to build it.

EDIT

I took a look at this myspace....those dont look like brembo brakes either...just the stock ones with brembo painted on.

Not gonna happen! I have my opinion on the dyno sheets, but i will keep it to myself until i do further research. I just watched a video of his whip and there is no way unless he is spraying... And spraying a lot!! But the tranny would go BOOM!

It is a nice lookin Whip IMO, but he aint pushin no 400+ HP

Re: 443 HP 3.6???

I call bullshit. 450whp.. that's over 530hp at the crank. That engine would not withstand that power without signifigant mods to beef it, along with the tranny up. Considering there are no supporting mods for the 3.6L to make that type of power, I call bullshit more. There are mods out for the Direct Injected RWD layout of the 3.6L since the Camaro now has that as a base engine, but it's a total different beast. Our 3.6L has a smaller intake manifold, minus direct injection, and traverse mount throws it off. To further my bullshit even more he asked some other MalibuSS guy on CD what strut bar he had, and the guy replied........its the stock one that come with the SS.....

The numbers do support a turbo's LS2, either GTO, Vette or TBSS.

~375 ft-lb torque to the wheels, 450hp to the wheels. Stock GTO's are 340whp, I assume 340whp.... the TBSS has a totally different tranny.. I assume it robs a tad bit more power from getting to the wheels... a turbo would easily smack up HP but not torque so easily... so a 50ft-lb gain on torque and 100-130hp hp gain is right. Magnacharged could do it do but they would bump up a little more torque than that.

Re: 443 HP 3.6???

Look at the curve on the dyno sheet, whatever put down those numbers was turbocharged or has a progressive nitrous controller. His car doesn't.

Re: 443 HP 3.6???

Also, look at his 1/4 mi time. Way off from his claimed whp
