Default turbo vid

its not an lsx car but just as fast. these vids i have an exhuast leak feeding the turbo and two boost leaks. i went to the track running it like that and ran 13.3-13.5@111 with 2.3 60'


but i fix the leaks and out of two runs i got out of milan i ran 12.3@111 with 2.0 60'. so with an open exhaust and better 60 should run 11s

o yea btw its a stock 3800.

How much boost can be SAFELY run on those stock 3800's? I'm talking about a well cared for high mileage 01 SS Monte engine (not a supercharged one).

so you have a l36 which has alittle more compression, but im running 15lbs with some supporting mods, you can run as much as you want as long as you kr free(knock retard/detention(sp?).

I built a GTP for my ex girlfriend and I liked it so much I bought one myself and im planning a turbo install over the winter. It was so funny to watch her beat a lot unsuspecting guys. One was a 2006 Mustang GT that I beat on the previous run with my 100% stock 2002 Z28 at the time. He didnt want to race me again so he pulled into another lane so she followed him in and put a hurting on him. He parked the car after that.
Now its finding a balance between parts for the Camaro and the GTP.
