Default Hello

hi, i just joined im a friend of Spike_Africa and he said something about v6 power so i showed up. I've been modding my v6 sinve june of last year, i started with simple stuff like UD pulleys and CAI.

Then i got sick of it and with the help of my friend i tossed on a vortech v-1 supercharger that i found used for 1500$. I ran 8psi with a SCT chip tuned by justin @ VMP. then i ran that for a while and went 14.7@95 with a stock rearend and a 2.2 60'

i got sick of no traction and my **** rearend so i got some 3.73's and tlok for it. I got them put in and the day after i had them worn in i melted my headgaskets . . . . so after speaking with my buddy (spike_africa) i decided to go with another v6. i picked one up from a guy in NY for 500$ and got it shipped down. the split port swap began. . . we got it all finished in 3 weekends including putting on the 11psi procharger and the LT headers etc etc we had to do some fabrication. Spike made a custom fuel rail and another friend of mine created a custom EGR delete.
