- 2011 VE SV6
Hi guys, recently off p's, saved some cash, looking to upgrade from a ve sv6. Need some boost in my life.
Found a nice 2002 cv6 monaro (supercharged ecotec) for 16k with 170,000kms on it. Plenty of people swap the supercharger for a turbo and get an easy 250rwhp but how does the engine for more serious power?
Here's the real question. What will it cost to get to 400whp? 500whp? My gut says I'd need a new transmission in that territory? probably a diff too.
Don't bother telling me to get a v8 monaro, if the v6 isn't cost effective enough I'll just look at other cars that come with turbos already
Thanks
