question about turbo 6s me and a friend are laying the groundwork for a turbo anglia 105e, possibly running a 100e front end, will be a complete custom, wondering if it would be better to go with an 8 5.7 or 6 ls1 pushing like 1000 or go with a v6 and get somewhere around 500-600
what do you all think, obviously this wont be happening overnight, but we are gonna be putting some loot into it, personally fabricating most of the car and parts, the question is is a 6 really that much smaller? we are not sure what platform, engine wise, to go with. we are bike guys doing a hotrod from a sportbike riders perspective, so alot of people may not like it, no matter what, any advice info or tips on what 6 to go with would be apreciated, we were comntemplating going with a twin busa engine setup, incase you all didnt know busas, those little 1.3 suzuki motors, are pushing 700 rwhp now, heheheheh, so getting 500 rwhp/300 rwtq out of each wouldnt be much of an issue, and since its going to be a mostly carbon fiber car, it wont weigh much at all, basically a go cart, so the comparatively low torque numbers would be a moot point. anyhow, let me know whats up fellas
