no v6 n/a can hang with a LS1/LS2. the FASTEST n/a 3.8 that i know if is in the 13's and he stripped his car down.
every v6 has to at least turbo / supercharge to run with anything v8. thats not to say you cant get a v6 into low numbers. look at the 3800 - people doubted that and it ended up running 9's. i think the 3.4 is capable of 11's, maybe even 10's. would need a lot going into it and a lot of boost to go with it (like 18-20 like the GN guys run).
is it doable yes? am i doing it? yes - currently gathering parts. Will it happen soon - probably not as I am going to have to collect stuff. I cant just toss a cam in there and get 50 extra hp. If you think that makes the 3.4 worthless then thats your opinion.
Honestly - personally - and i dont care who i piss off with this, but I think that owning a v8 is the "Easy way out". you have a ton of parts that are easy to come by and throw in. I like the challenge my 3.4 provides me in terms of making me figure out new ways to squeeze more power out of it. You say my car is not worth the time of day, I say I've found myself a challenge. We each have our own view of things and I'm not trying to change yours.
So why do you want to change mine - and why disrespect? Honestly car owners are car owners. And btw - at least we aren't modding imports. We bought GM cars cause we wanna support an AMERICAN company cause we believe in America. So why hate? Why not just embrace us as fellow car enthusiasts and let us be...
Thats all I gotta say on this anymore. I'm stayin out of this thread from now on. Still be on the board lookin around, I just don't have anymore to say on this.
