s/c w/ 86k on engine?


My cars got 86k on it which isnt bad for a 2000, but im concerned it may be too high to put on a s/c. Would it be safe to s/c, or should I do a SSMS power pak along with forged internals?

if properly taken care of and maintained you will be fine with something like the vmp 9psi procharger kit

I was gonna go with the 9psi vortech kit....and yes the car gets very well maintaned. The only problem my car has had was a bad smog pump...which was of an annoyance to fix. Other than that, just routine stuff.

9psi vortech will be fine
i'd personally do a split port swap

hey why would you mod a V6 when the GT is just so much easier and just better and like everything you'd ever want
