Why detune the car with the 122? They are proven not to do more than 400rwhp which is cam only NA..
But point taken on ancillaries.
Really!? 400rwhp.... My old one must have been broken as I am sure it kicked yr monster NA engine at the track and on the dyno! But point taken on ancillaries.
Think someone has had too many shandy's !

I was interested in the charger but massively priced out the market! Would make more sends to sell privately I guess. If this sells at this price then it would effectively mean a perfectly functional SC monaro could be worth more broken then as a unblemished complete car. Interesting thought!
The parts are rare, so the parts are expensive. Because of this, they've always hovered around a retail break point, and when values dip below that, the specialist breakers will break perfectly good cars for their parts.All the bits new work out around £10250 (for a ls3 na), Its ok looking at an engine price & a box but its all the other bits you get with a used conversion
gear remote, prop, alternator bracket ,starter bolts, bellhousing bolts, clutch master & pipework etc etc etc & THE specialised breaker knows
If you already have a car you have the ancillaries so then it would be a yes to buy new
I also did offer the chap a supercharged ls powered 3 series for cheaper than to build one but declined , cheaper to buy than build .

Ah, ok. My error then as usual!
.
No shock there really !! .
But I won't be SC again, BIG Cam next
With the SC's it the clutch and fuel system that also adds extra expense.
The way NA was keeping up with the SC set ups at TR to well over legal speeds was rather surprising, I just cant see the point in the expense when you're only going to benefit from it once or twice a year !
Stick a BIG Cam in mine, maybe a better intake, and that'll do me fine

Are you sure you havnt been secretly listening to me!?Except you spelt UNsurprising wrong..

Erm, no, you are quite incorrect, when I had a simple bolt on charger (122 and not the VXR500 112) stock internals, stock headers etc etc, it made 460 RWHP, the meth kit added another 20 RWHP, nothing complex,expensive, messy or horrendous about
Did you map it for the meth kit and what percentage mix did you use?ringram said:
