Very impressive, but it would be more impressed if he could do that all-motor. :icon16:

So if someone twin turbo'ed a LS1 car imagine how fast it would be if a lil 3.8 did that.

read the link... he's at about 38k. It has been know to cost a lto more to do that with a v8 car...

and about the single vs. twins, well shit, you KNOW how long that argument can go on for so I won't even start it :grinyes:


It's still stupid fast no matter how you look at it

'Bout as fast as 3.8 plus 2 extra cylinders :icon16:

Seriously, not bad tho, the path was already paved for those numbers 20 years ago as Hypsi would contend, follow the recipe. :cheers:

Eventually the N/A will pass you, all he has to do is wait for v-6 parts to scatter down the track. :lol:

Ehhhhh aside from the displacement, the two engines have NOTHING alike. Not a single part can even swap from a series 1 to a series 2 engine.


And about the v6 parts scattering down the track.... nobody has yet found the limits of the 3800 series 2 block, and both intense's GTP and zzp's are knocking on the 8s IIRC

If your pushing 9's with a 3800, its not going to take long and you will be out all that cash. The same can be said about most v-8's tho.

yeah that 3800 2 series is the shit, i know i pushed the piss out of my old rs..sprayed the living shit out of it.....good small block...

Sounds rediculous. Cool, but I wouldn't do that to my car like that.
that little 3800 will blow hell up if that timing takes a jump or it misses. Although I was offered a custom job for my LT4, which there is NO reason toraise the CR any higher, for twin turbo.s. wtf i said no way he wanted like 8 grand too which aint so bad for a nice set.

8 sec's and he'll blow the motor down the track :grinyes:
But with his sponsors he should be up and running again, well after he removes the parts from his legs and feet :eek:

Unofficailly MY 3.4 GA SE is running in the mid 13's N/A.
Too add boost, I need about $5k in lower end mottor work, then I'll be set :naughty:

That's crazy money to spend on a V6.
You could buy a GTO or TA with a V8 for that :disappoin

But then he wouldn't carry the title for owning one of the fastest v6's on the planet. Everybody has fast v8's. :icon16:

and if you spend 38k for a gto or trans am, youre still only at 13ish seconds

who cares if its a v6...some of the fastest cars on the planet are 6 cylinders..get over it
