decision time

orson250 · April 11th, 2009, 11:34 PM

summer is almost here...and for me that means a huge chunk of time to get some work done on the 'ol sixxer lol. by the time summer starts i will have about 1400$ that i can use for parts and i am looking to do some upgrading. i am looking into several things as a matter of fact and i think i can afford one of these:

1. a 4.2 swap from an f150 or something ( i might have sources to get one)
2. some ported and polished performance heads from supersixmotorsports
3. maybe a power pac from supersixmotorsports if i can get some money
4. custom ground cam / performance cam

of course i can always save money and wait until i can get a procharger or some sort of forced induction. looking for advice and all comments are welcome!

I thought you were going to try to sell your car and get a GT, like yesterday?? Just save your money and get turbo'd.

orson250 · April 11th, 2009, 11:52 PM

haha yea i know i kinda changed my mind pretty quick there. well the deal with my friend at school fell through and i won't be able to get enough to get a gt :-(. i would get a gt if i could get one and have it already payed off.

does tmaturbo sell turbo kits to fit 3.8's?

oh well that explains alot lol thanks. yeah i have been looking there for a while and really 3500 isn't ridiculous for a turbo. what kind of power could i expect to see from something like this? what extra costs would i need to spend to secure the power?

i would talk to chris about the heads. shoot him a pm he knows all about that stuff.
