Re:Turbocharging my Jeep
you think a straight 6 is huge... have you ever seen a straight 16? yeah, i saw one on speedvision one night it was a vintage open racer, it only made like 160 hp but had about 1,300 ft lbs of torque.

Re:Turbocharging my Jeep
inline 6s are all torque no revs. at least OHV ones. v6 are far superior in all aspects. |
Re:Turbocharging my Jeep
most 6 cyl engines are meant to please women and homosexuals. ie the 6 cyl camaro and mustang. i cant knock jeep straight sixes my dad has one with 202,000 on it and she purrs. i think gm should have just built the camaro with the turbo six and no v8 ever though. also i think the gm 3.8 liter v6 is the best engine ever made.. ;D

Re:Turbocharging my Jeep
So you must be a fan of the old Buick Indy Lights V6?
Off topic, but I prefer the sound of an I6 over a V6, so it 'must' be better.....heheheheh |

The turbo TA runs 13.0s from the factory. The older turbo camaro ( I think 1981 ) did suck ass though !!! |
Re:Turbocharging my Jeep

Your right the 1980 ( I thought it was 81' ) trans am sucked ass. The one I speak of was built in 1987 and was a 25th year aniv. trans am. it was powered by a 3.8 turbo buick motor that had a few "little" mods to it. The famous comedian Sam Kenithson killed himself in one. They only built it for one year b/c just like the GMC syclone, it smacked the vette, and GM couldn't have that !! It doesn't help my arguement any, but I think the 1980 turbo TA was an inline motor, but the 6.6L bandit trans am only made like 190hp !!! that year or the year before. |
