Supercharger for LLT (SIDI)

[UFO]

How the hell is putting a supercharger on a daily the same as turning it into a pure bred drag car?? You mention two different brake upgrades, two different lowering upgrades, two different turbo setups, rebuild the engine, trans, clutch, two different sets of rims, ripping everything out of the car etc. You make it sound like the hypothetical person isn't going to do the exact same thing to a V8, and probably end up spending more (BIGGER AFTERMARKET)

If anything a supercharged SV6 would be the better daily driver choice. No suprises this had already turned into another V8 vs V6 thread. STFU!!

You're telling me to STFU for no reason, as you've obviously completely missed the point of my post but decided to insult me anyway.
You're an idiot, and I'm not going to dignify your stupidity by wasting any more of my time by responding to it.
:upyours:.

I will just be happy to get a little bit more oopmh in my sv6 (what jarp has currently will do nicely) just a little bit more go and fun and retain a bit of economy. If I wanted to I could walk into holden tomorrow and walk out with a brand new ssv and only pay 18k out of my own pocket (loan), with my car as a trade in of 21k and the benefits of my grandfathers gold card from holden as a long service workman and the current job status i have yeah the v8 option would be more plausible in most eyes, but i have decided to keep what i have be out of debt (current loan....nearly there!) and put my money in a more worth while investment... a house.

UFO has a point! When you start moding very few things will stop you.

UFO, your moronic rant had little do to with the topic. IE SIDI SUPERCHARGER not a hypothetical douchelord spending 40k + on car mods. Calling me an idiot yet you wasted 30 minutes writing the stupid post in the first place. So I'll say it again STFU, the 'get a V8' posts are getting tiresome. :banstick:

Back on topic.

Jarp, I'll lend Steve the CAPA S/C bracket off mine and let him see what needs to be done to mod it (if even possible). 300-325rwkw would be nice from a supercharger. Would behave nicely on the street as well. The guy with the kit I have had it on an auto Calais for over a year on 10 psi and the trans held up fine. Dynomotive reckons 12psi+ and you'd need to start strengthening the trans. Good thing about centrifugals is they are linear (ie not instant boost) so much easier on drive train. And around town without boost will behave close to a stocker. Just check with your insurance first, NRMA are only bumping up my insurance by $53 a year which is awesome as opposed to almost 1k extra on an 8.

And yeah fair enough SV666, nothing wrong with keeping your 6 (as opposed to what they tell you on here). Btw my gf lives in South Morang, that place is hoon central lol.

Thanks for that Kuzman might be very useful. Not sure the CAPA solution is going to work on the SIDI due to this (quote taken from the Camaro S/C developer write up on View topic - RX Super Charger for the LLT!! :: Bowtie V6 - 5th Gen Camaro V6 Tech Forum, 2010 Camaro V6, 2011 Camaro V6, Camaro 3.6l, Camaro llt)


"I suspect they may be experiancing the crankcase issues every other LLT FI system has had (except ours). We have sold I think every STS or other customer our dual valve system to cure their issues with success that have posted on the big site and another is shipping his car here now for us to do the same.

The LLT/LFX crankcase evac system from the factory is barely able to provide proper evac & breathing bone stock, and so with any FI it is a involved solution and looking at the other systems that come in every vendor is going about it all wrong ...causing even more issues"

Ahh fair enough, keep in mind the Camaro's never had the LY7 (alloytec) so this may have been an issue with the alloytecs as well that CAPA may have rectified. Also there are some slight differences between the commodore SIDI and the Camaro SIDI. May not be an issue with your car? Just some thoughts.

Noticed this post today IPF Tuning - Company Info - SC Details, Unanswered Questions - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums - Camaro5.com so thought I'd pop it up. So as a quick reference IPF sell supercharger kits for the LLT and LFX Camaro for US$5695 including tune and intercooler(8-10hrs fit time). System produces 300+FWKW and 450Nm. Question is would it bolt up to a VE and of course is it worth it or not (although can imagine where this may go)?

He has a whole lifetime to buy a v8 man...

Looks like the v8 owners hit a few nerves when it comes to v6 vs v8 because simply they cannot believe that the sv6 is slowly reaching (from factory) the power of a current ss and from just a simple s/c upgrade for more power.
Its really sad to see "some" people talk Sh!t and ruin nice threads about v6 upgrades on this forum. If you have the decency, just read the thread and not act like little girls that know everything.
We don't vandalize your threads and post Sh!t on them, we expect the same from you guys. If its hard to take into consideration, then you got issues, go see a psychiatrist.
