V9 is good for 600hp, the T Trim is good for 825, and the YS is good for 1000hp.

I know a guy with a V9 that is pulling 576RWHP.

What have you pulled with the YS and where can you get the T Trim or a YS?

What all have you done to the engine?

Have not pulled the YS yet, and I got it direct from Vortech.

I have a 9:1 LS6 shortblock, with 6.0 stage II heads. Everything is forged and studded.

There is no comparison do the math on the area of the core between the two units. Take into account the internal fin design that we use verse theres. We get several manufactures cores and run them against ours constantly. They are just a name and the only reason the have a name is because they sell mass amounts. They dont make specific coolers they just generalize horsepower levels to what they have and put the tanks of your choice on there. We custom tailor to application specifics. As far as heads up i say we get PSJ to throw a fogger system on his ride or talk you into going on a 64 cubic inch diet. Neither of which will ever happen. If you guys want i have a friend with a near 700 hp WRX. Ever try and play catch up to a 4 cylinder AWD? LOL
the WRX is a 6 cylinder

Looks good John

I got a different torque converter to put in the car since the current one was stalling to almost 7000 on the dyno.

So far have pulled 14psi, with 110 gas and 23 degrees of timing at WOT, hopefully will have new dyno numbers this week.

I don't really keep up with my imports. I could have sworn the EVO was an inline 6 though. Ah well. What Mitsubishi has a 6 besides the GT and the Eclipse?

Possibly a Galant VR-4 possibly. The bad boy is the Nissan skyline and i believe that depending on what year/version you could get it with the inline six. I have a picture of one of the motors that is twin turbo and has a roots style on it. Got it at overboost.com.

Yeah, I love the Skyline and Supra's. I know a ton about them, just not a lot about the other imports. There is a guy in Cali that is doing a Skyline motor swap into a 350Z. He is planning on having around 850 hp. Should be a pretty neat project. Skyline's and Supra's are both inline 6's. Well the Skyline GT-R anyway, I dunno what the 4 door models and the regular Skyline's come with.
