Lets face it, the 2,5v6 is a bit underpowered considering its size (displacement).
so im considering the superchargerway, mostly because averybody else uses turbo.
but now i need some pros and cons. I know its a big rebuilt, but I think im up for the challenge (yes im a mechanic).
so far ive come to this:
stronger rods (possible from a saab or custom made)
lower compresion (+3mm steel head gasket)
eaton m62 or m90 supercharger (max pressure 0,5bar boost controlled)
intercooler from wv transport tdi
ecu remap
engine coolant thermostat max temp 70 degrees celcius
elektric waterpump (to keep the water flowing faster)
headers from bestmufflers.com
cams from 3,0v6
steel pressure pipes.
5w30 sunoco/valvoline racing oil for the engine.
THE GOAL. 280 - 320hp and whatever torgue it brings hopefully over 300nm
brakes,supesion and so on is already converted to steinmetz kompressor specifikations.
have I forgotten anything?
