What can this v6 become.. I mean if you had the money to lay on your car, how many horses could you get out of this v6 without playing with blowing your rear and things like that?? And about how much would all this cost.
I'm really curious what this engine is capable of doing?

There is pretty much a general concesus that you should be able to attain somewhere around 400RWHP.. This is not openly discussed, but I believe we will see this number in another 6 months or so..
This number is based on the motor as it currently sits in the car, with Forged Rods.. We are concerned however with the extra water passages around the cylinder bores.. To what extent they will play into a problem, we dont know yet.. But feel comfortable that the engine you have should be able to maintain about 400RWHP as it sits.. Some may debate this, and challenge it.. Some dont have enough faith to draw this conclusion, but I will.. You can rest assured, I have not been wrong about the 05 V6 yet.. I have pretty much gone out on a limb for this car, and still have not been proven wrong yet.. So my track record is pretty good.. LOL!!

Definately performance, but all the graphics, lowering (thats a push, as we've seen lately maybe its hampering), etc. The tires i would put in performance too.

X-Cal2 - $400
gears & tlock - $900
Zex & acc. - $900 (this doesn't include 2nd bottle)
tires & wheels - $880
BMR LCA - $250
Dyno tuning.. $300 or so...
adds up quick! LOL

tuner $370
intake $200
tlok $400 installed (they quoted $350 but its always more for some reason)
Tires & rims (GT takeoffs) $650
ZEX $550 (with first fill)
Gt takeoff muffler $75
i should be just over 2 grand with all that, and hopefully somewhere in the 13s lol.

)Heater - for Michigan.. a Must Have
Purge - Not sure if this is a Must Have... but I would think for the best time you would want it..
Pressure Gauge - A Must Have in my mind.. An over pressurized tank go be disasterous...
Blow Down Tube - I'm pretty sure this a Must Have at almost all tracks... It's a Must Have for me..
The base zex kit was $580 for me... so that's how I got $900...
