Thanks guys :)

In regards to the suspension setup his still keeping it IRS at the moment, from my understanding, because he wants the quickest IRS V6. Plus he still drives in on the street and the IRS is handy when negotiating speed humps LOL

Saying this though he'll probably need to upgrade the rear end out of necessity from a reliability perspective, given how hard the power is going to be on the IRS.

In regards to a total build cost, I'm not sure as the build has evolved over a period of time, I'd put the figure at lots all things considered

To replicate that engine, including turbo setup, fueling, tune etc I'd loosely put it at around 20k which would be influenced by the amount of DIY work and mates rates etc.

There is still more in this engine combo, as it's only running 31psi, where it can be running mid to high 30's. I suppose time will tell if it will get pushed that far or not.

Cheers,
Steve

For a V6, this car has the record from my understand, in both IRS and outright V6 commodore. It has factory ported heads.

There is still more in this build as well as it was running less boost then what it was when it was making 420rwkw (33 down to 31psi).

For people interested it will at the LS1 nats this year, hopefully everything holds up for some low 9 runs :)

Man thats one hairy ride, big ups to all involved, to keep it irs and handle more grunt would a piggy back rear swaybar help keep the arse straight when boost hits? It won't really affect the spring rate but should keep the arse end flat and can be unbolted in minutes to drive it home.

RESPECT
