Lol Nice eye I copied and pasted. I had a list of things I've replaced I thought I deleted it all. I guess that one I over looked.

Have been in a car with sold engine mounts? Do you realize your car is going to be a giant vibrator when you install them?

Yeah I don't mind it. I have a polyurethane rear motor mount in right now. I am not too happy with it. I think it gives the engine too much play. Solid mm's will help if or when I boost it.

Not sure. I've been waiting on an Eaton MP62 blower to pop up at a decent price for a year. So my s/c manifold has just been sitting this whole time. I think I might of found someone finally. If he bails on me I am just going to do n/a this year then maybe turbo it next year.

Thank you sir. Just depends really. Lots of variables like the size pulley, or the turbo size. I see a lot of turboed tibs (v6) that are just pushing 5psi usually land around 240hp depending on if their tuned or not. NGM s/c stage 0 (maybe 3-5psi) nets around 210hp-220hp. The highest turboed tiburon I've heard of 580hp (not sure if it was v6 or i4). The highest s/c tiburon I've seen of was 700hp (to the crank). I believe that was achieved with an SVT blower.

those are FWD?
thought force feeding them would add more power
i bet a s/c V6 would be alot of torque steer, in a way too much fun power kinda way

Sorry I messed up the 550hp (700hp to the crank) was a turboed one. It still doesn't beat the Korean ones I've seen on youtube though.

This is the same guy he produces the s/c kits for our community. This is his supercharged. The SVT kit put down 440hp.

Yeah they are fwd. They're not a good platform. The aftermarket isn't heavy with products so the prices are high on anything. They're not a n/a beast or anything so bolts on don't do a whole lot. If I were to do I/H/E, UIM (upper intake manifold), LIM (lower intake manifold), and maybe some mild cams my car might go from 150hp to 185hp. They're money pits. I went with it for the fact it was just right thing at the time and I've stayed with it because it's different.

If you plan on doing a turbo set up for a v6 you have to have it all custom done no pre made turbo manifolds or anything. Supercharger kits start off at $3k and go up to $5k. Tuning is always a hassle with them. Stock internals are only good up to 300hp turboed set ups have pushed a little past that. The highest n/a hp one in America only put down like 220hp.

With all that being said I am not one of those kids with wild dreams of putting down some crazy numbers or some shit. I live in reality for the most part. Mine hasn't done me wrong. I've beat on her several times before but for the most part I take care of her and she has returned the favor.

Wow I forgot I had a member page here lol.

Some things have changed since I last posted here.
Let's see;
I got new wheels (before drop).

BBK installed

Megan Racing coil-overs (I got impatient waiting to save up for Teins).

Far as engine mods go I have a Mishimoto radiator, and Mishimoto trans cooler now.
Just some powder coating valve covers and lower manifold.

I have all I need to install the supercharger now. The only catch is I am sending it to Cali for some special treatment before she goes on.

Edit: O and OP has been edited.

O and how she sits now.

I think it's a good thing you went with Megans over Teins....every set of Tein Coils I have ridden on that are newer are absolutely horrible. Never had a problem at all out of Megan Coils.
