Hey @Matey I am thinking of fitting an SC14, once I get the heads redone. Should be able to squeeze an extra 35-40hp without stressing out the small charger. They are fairly cheap too. Full kit with brackets I'd say would be well under a grand. Only issue will be getting a tune as that will be close to another 1000 bucks.

Hi @MateyExhaust with straight through offset muffler and rear resonator is probably the best fitted with a100 cell cat converter.

I was told by a pretty knowledgeable bloke that high flow cats would be a waste as the standard cat is not a restriction unless you are around 200+ HP.

That's an L67 charger, considering it won't easily bolt on the headache to make such a charger work would be a nightmare. A Raptor is a straight fit and probably around the same money.

Apologies Trevor it does say fits Buick. I don't understand how, since an L67 charger won't mount on a Buick. They must have an adapter.

Love it but I think its a waste of money, with the L36 you would need to upgrade the insides to take the extra power, this is why the L67 is a much stronger built engine. I just don't see the point in adding extra horsepower unless you want to go down the quarter mile for trophy's.
Be better off going on a good holiday that can give you memories and to give yourself a rest from the world problems.
