Looking at rear wheel KW figures.
They get about 150-160 from the basic Terracharger M90 kit.
170-180 with the stealth intercooler.
200-210 with the tower intercooler.
220-230 with tower and a camshaft
240-250 with tower, cam, modified heads.
Only cars making more than that have the Whipple kits on and they make anywhere from 280 to 330 KW at the treads.

Cheers.
Tappy.

Will these heads be for L36 with superchargers, or for stock cars as well ??

They will be available for L36 N/A engines as well.
The only difference is the injector notches in the factory heads but we plan to have a couple of chamber sizes available.

Cheers.

most likely making a fool of myself here, but i've got a couple of mates who have gone with forced induction for their cars (VN sedan & VX ute), and after a few thousand k's added to the clock they have had nothing but problems, the VN being a powerdyne charger and the VX being Vortech charged. I havnt gone into the nitty gritty of ALL the details with them, however i was pretty keen to get my VY6 supercharged. They have sort of put me off the idea at the moment... Any advice/reccomendations to avoid this happening to me if i were to go with a forced induction? thanks for your time

Yeah i think these motors seem to prefer the roots type, alot of good chargers are like this, the YT ones, the ones for the LS1, even the standard on the L76. Maybe they are more suited and reliable on these motors. Look how well the Eatons have done.

The compression ratio of the NA engines is what you have to watch when adding forced induction. Ideally you want to lower the compression ratio, otherwise you may encounter problems.

Cheers.

Just a quick question.

What ratio rocker would be best for my VYII ecotec Berlina? I was looking into getting the 1.95's. Its a completely stock N/A engine and won't be getting to many mods done to it. Thanks for any advice.
