    Default VY NA V6 or VY SC V6

    Hey im new to this forum

    Im looking at getting a VY either a VY NA V6 or VY SC V6, im just wondering which one of the two will be a stronger engine, im not worried about which is faster, just which will last longer, i do have a heavy right foot, so yeah

    Thanks

    Basically the same engine...

    THe SC engine has lower compressions and some toucher bits to with the charger...

    Though i wouldn't say one engine would last longer than the other...

    Since u got a heavy foot you may aswell go the SC

    Default Vy V6

    I'm guessin the Blown engine has better Rods and pistons to suit and the ECU would be different, but as far as engine life goes, the VY N/A is designed as a family sedan and the S/C engine for performance, I'd go with the S/C if you are planning to take it to hell and back........

    If you going the s/c way, get the n/a vy and put a raptor s/c in.The only way to go. Walks all over the factory s/c

    Since both engines are engineered at factory, both would last as long. If you heavy foot it too much, both engines will die quicker.
