Total rookie question but i have heard about a bunch of cars that come stock with turbos and i was wondering if you can add a turbo to a V6 camaro and keep it mild to where you could get a good HP increase but not hurt your overall engine or efficiency.

 

turbo v6 here, about to knock down some 11 second 1/4 mile times and still get 32-36 mpg on the highway with a high stall converter and a 4:10 rear gear
so yes it possible visit the v6 section theres tons of info posted on this subject

 

efficiency...
fuel
VE
BSFC
what?

I'd bet that if we wanted to we could come up with a dozen or more ways to talk about an engine's or car's efficiency that would have nothing to do with one another...

you've asked a question that really couldn't be answered, unless someone wants to try to write a book on all the effects of turbocharging a car...

 

Sorry was trying to to explain it best i could i took project89's advice and have been living on the v6 forums tryng to find my answer.

Basically i was just referring to putting a turbo on my DD to get some more power out of it buti am not looking to do any racing. Like i said i have been on the V6 forums alot and am getting a good idea on how to draw some power out of engine without hurting it. sorry for not explaining very well
