yes this is a daily driver  
low 12’s @ 112mph at 9 psi  
car is making over 400hp and 500+ ftlbs at the crank

im in the middle of building a brand new combination for the car and am just starting to collect parts  
so far the build is going to look like this  
3.4L v6 block  
2.8L crank to destroke the motor to 3.0L

and of course another set of heads ported by me

lsx cop setup  
and the big boy of them all  
an borg warner s475 with an 80mm compressor wheel and 83 mm turbine with an ar of .90

not sure if this setup will make its way into my current car or if i will buy an s10 long bed / or a 1st gen rx7 to drop it in  
any which way it will be badass

if u guys would like more info or pics/video just ask

You might have to look into a spool valve. They are laggy on 6.0’s I doubt it will be usable on your v6.

RPMS are gonna be your friend with that setup but T4 .90 helps alot. Curious why go S400 with T4 then? The T6’s are the ones with the bang for the buck, the T4 options cost some money. You could possibly find another 76-80mm setup on a T4 thats smaller dimensionaly and around same price

the other 76mm options i looked at are pretty much all p-trimed and will porlly choke the motor north of 7,500 rpms

the s475 aka s400sx when used with a t4 hotside runs just over 900  
though if i got it with the t6 hs it weould be around what 600 bucks i think

cause i can build the v6 alot cheaper besides noone has pushed one this far yet.  
few of us v6 guys are about to break into the 11’s im the fastest at sub 10 psi, the next fastest guy and the rest are all around 15/16 psi to run 12.40’s witht he same size turbos and those guys are running 3.4L engines.those guys are all running 4thgen cars so maybe thathas something to do with it.  
i take my current motor to 7,800 this new motor will be a short stroke motor with a bore thats .120 bigger should really like to rev.im planning on shifting around 8,700  
the canted valve heads wont hurt either lol they flow about 65cfm better then my stock iron heads, im just leary of running an aluminum head on this thing i hate to spend 30 hours in port work just to pop a head gasket and torch the dam heads  
and i just scored my rods on ebay for 250 shipped

scat h beams 😃

now i just need to find a local machine shop that can bush the lil ends for me and mill .060 off one side of each big end

edit nm i just looked up the stock vs stock flow numbers and the canted valve aluminum heads flow 92 cfm more then the iron heads stock for stock
