Heypal, do you do this with the supercharged motors for a low CR and replace the intake with a NA one? Or do you start with the NA motor if you want to turbo?

That video is of Jeffs car the current fastest 10.00 with a charge pipe popping off or something like that. you can do it with either motor but the l67/l32(supercharged motors)Are better if you want to run more boost on pump gas remember alot of turbos sweet spot is in the 20+psi range on these cars. At the end of the day you want either a built motor like the route I went. Or a low mileage l67/l32 bottom end with l36/l26(N/A motors) top end with a turbo and other goodies. Btw the fastest grand prix was on a stock bottom end for a few years its all in the tune best run of he Worlds fastest FWD 3800- 8.6582 @ 158.97mph(copied from zzperformance.com)thats on the stock bottom end. And the impala video is stock bottom end(st4 cam like myself) but he has stock heads...and a different bigger turbo

Just curious. Any body turbo the SS V8? I would think a V8 would be a better engine to start for more torque.

Yeah they have a turbo kit...from a guy that doesn't mind stealing money from you...just saying.

But their trans won't handle the torque so no one will do it.

Weak FWD trannies are a problem. With the SHO you can pay $4000 for gear sets with 500ft-lbs torque ratings. The stock trannies strip third gear over 350ft-lbs of torque. The big problem I have seen is putting down that much power without making the car only good for the strip.

Our trannies are about the same range on a full weight car. It was just shy of 4k for mine.
