    how many k's are people getting out of a supercharged 6 ecotec? is it much less than a n/a ecotec?

    also how many k's will the charger do before needing a rebuild?

    I have a friend, his L67 chucked a leg out of bed while driving only the highway at 2000 revs, so random. It had 104,000 ks on it

    There shouldnt be any difference between the two, even though the S/C engine would be made a little stronger to hold up with the S/C, if both engines are driven the same and looked after they should both live a decent life...

    True ^^^ if you are meaning the L67 Holden factory blown engine.


    If he means whacking an aftermarket blower on an ecotec, it might differ slightly. I guess it all depends on what kind of life the engine has had.

    economy should b roughly the saem youd think if they were driven fairly passivly. boot the right foot down and youd asume the S/C would start chewin the juice more than the ecotec.
