Default Re: Squires rear turbo system.

so honestly people can one start saving money up for a turbo setup i am tempted to call house of power and get into the details of this build up. It might be atleast a yr before i am able to do anything need to get some student loans knocked out before i splurge on power or might have to sell the system and downgrade the audio but upgrade power lol.


I am thinking i would like to start with a turbo setup on the stock motor and use that for couple years and then look into getting a fully built engine and really crank up the boost.

Now what do you think once the turbo is done get TVT 3.6l V6 with all the goodies does around 400hp before Forced Induction or should one go with a V8 drop in and use the turbo on it. What is compression ratio on the V8. i think our stock motor is like 10:1 and tvt plans to sell both high and low compression.


I think cost will be very similar in both but with the v6 being forged you could really crank up the boost and run 15lbs -18lbs on it and make that biatch scream lolz. The nice thing about the v6 is the savings in gas mileage versus the V8 but who is counting MPG i am trying to get down to 10 seconds. The v8 will yield even more power than the v6 but honestly how much do we need like i said i am happy to get to 10 sec flat in to long run and i think 650 hp should take care of that. I think the v6 on 18lbs of boost will take care of that but the V8 sure sounds nice.

i think the issue will not be power but laying down all that power nicely and safely items that worry me are

transmission (stage 2 clutch)
drive shaft ( one piece custom)
differential (phantom grip)
axles (????)
