Supercharge or V8

[SAV_117]

ok fellas ive been thinkin should i supercharge my car or buy a V8 i have a stock vy v6 but i dont really wanna sell it and all i really want is the same power as a stocko V8. so tell me what your thoughts are Supercharge my V6 or buy a V8

[zerodown]

Obviously not happy with the current power so what happens should you supercharge the 6 and then want more? **** a block of land away building it up further for what is still in essence a tin box sounding 6?

I say go the 8. At least if you ever want more power you have a great starting point.

If this was a poll for a factory s/c 6 or factory V8, I would go the s/c 6. But if the supercharger is a mod to a basic 6 then I would go the V8. Therefore I didn't vote.

[SAV_117]

i would deff be happy with a stock V8 power i wouldnt put the supercharger to just my stock 6 i would prob have a few engine mods just i really love my car haha and just the condition its in is really really really good lol

"all i really want is the same power as a stocko V8"

you answered your question mate....I'd go the 8

I clicked supercharge because i had the same dilemma and asked the q on the vr-vs forums and ended up going for an l67 conversion which im starting soon.
but if youve got a few spare dollars in your pocket which i havnt then spend it on an s/c v8 then you get the best of both worlds

[greenfoam]

For a VN-VS the L67 is a great idea but for the VY, there can only be one sensible option

[Farlig]

its a shame you haven't had the option of buy v8 and supercharge that lol

Supercharged V8 ftw

Speaking of charging an 8, I know Yella Terra have a bolt on blower for the 304 engine. Not that would be cool.

There $8000 supply price for the stage 1 kit isn't so cool.

[Wagon_Wheel]

Yeah i was going to say why not both? Supercharged V8 FTW

[Cobez]

Why make a poll and ask everyone else what you should spend YOUR money on?

Buy what YOU want to buy, not what everyone else thinks is the way to go.

[SAV_117]

because if someone has a really good explanation as to why it would be better to either put an 8 in mine or buy an 8 that i will change my mind

[hail storm]

By the time I brought and fitted the Raptor,roller rocker and done exhaust on mine it cost me just under $8000.That's what I wanted and I couldn't be happier with it.

Now if you were to sell your car and add that $8000 to it I'm sure you would get yourself a good VY SS or close to it.

Just some food for thought

[hail storm]

oops,just edited my last post,I missed a key word!

[greenfoam]

This is madness. You'll get a LS1 or better in the VY for 8 grand or just buy a whole car with one in it for not much more. It's on a whole other level compared to a supercharged V6

[adamc11]

Sell yours and get a V8. Don't go swapping your engine over. And trust me, you will soon get sick of stock v8 power and want more, so S/C 6 would be a waste.

why shouldnt i change my motor ova???

Its not worth it. For the money you pay for the motor and conversion, you could sell your car, and buy another one.

[88GreenVN]

Second that ^^^ new car time.

[Emackulation]

Ls1 is like SSJ2 compaired to the Sc6 which is SSJ1...

[Travy]

you need to look at the costs of both exercises and work out which is better value for money.
