lol @ 3,000 kid i know with the v6 2.8 swapeed to a t61 and he still spools by 2,900,his fiirst turrbo was the same one im using but with a lil larger ar on the hot side and that spooled by 2,500 .with the smaller ar mine shoudl deff spool faster.and yeah ill be spraying on the motor.only a 25 shot though.

25 shot will help spool

but taking that away its hard for me to see how you can spool a (bye spool i me full boost ) T-61 before our motors do :confused:

ill have to ask him again im pretty sure he makes full bost by 29-3000 rrpm,then again he dosent run high boost on his car anymore he runs 7-9 psi

edit i forgot to mention my turbo is ball bearing so thats gonna help with spool time alot

Best of luck, keep us updated.

problems already,when they shiped me my turbo they forgot to send me the blockoff flange so i can use my external gate,so i gota wait for that to get shipped out htis week.
lol i put the new turbo next to my old regal 3.8 turbo and dam what a size diff

Also, you really can not base hp/ tq and possible ET's off another car.... it can be different

yeah i know that but i get a really good idea from it,the first turbo he used was a 16g dsm turbo and he put down 255 to the wheels &6psi bone stock.and hes gone low 12's withthe t61(14 or 15 psi) but it cost him a motor (broke #5 ringland) and this is still on an engine with alot less work then mine. uguys need to remeber our engines maybe smaller but we have a****load more aftermarket support,and not to mention a ****load of goodies from gmpp.even without that 60* v6 is a whole nother engine from ur 3.8 motors it responds to stuff alot better

:scratch: Ok.

There is a miriad of cams, heads, stroker kits etc out there.

Most of the 3.8 owners just step up to an lt1 or ls1.

Hell, my combo is pretty simple and I'm doing all right.

And, back to the comparing someone to has similar mods to you.... there are countl;ess 3.8 owner's who have tried to replicate my mods/ car combo and have not come close to my ET's

Eh, oh well.... the drag strip shall show your results

lack of driver mod i would assume.

i'm closing in :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
