hey guys well ive been up and down the road debating wether or not to go front mount, im currently running the sts setup my question is how much do you think i can get if i decide to sell it here are my current mods

pacesetter LT
custom Y pipe
sts gt67 turbo
meth kit
FMIC
42# injectors
sts electronic boost controller
cobalt seris boost gauge and pyrometer
pillar to fit both gauges

any suggstions i didnt want to put it in the classified because im still debating if its worth it or not my plans are..custom front mount with a t76, FMIC, 60# injectors, rebuild lq4 to handle 15# and call it a day..any thoughts or comments would be thankful

 

anything.....

 

The sts setup will run low 11s, possible high 10s if setup right and spool just as fast as a front mount. How fast do you want to go.

 

I agree completely.

 

Boost is Boost..

only thing i want to do is relocate my filter cause i live down a long gravel driveway and i off road some

 

Ben(Silver-Mod-o) put down over 450hp/450tq to the wheels on only 6#s of boost with an MP70. I personally have yet to see a rear mount setup touch that.

 

it depends on the dyno tho.. numbers dont mean anything.
i put down 441hp/535tq if you wanna play the number game

 

I suppose you are right, but he also ran a pretty damn impressive time minus breaking his motor mid run.

Also your setup is a bit more beefy than a cammed 5.3L.

 

yea with a 3600 stall haha i watched the log of the run when the engine blew. I dont think the RPMs ever got under 5000.

All i have is a stock 6L, stock verter, stock 80E, Stock 3.42s.. 6# and a lil 50 shot. And bens truck is anerexic at 3900#. mine weighed 5100 with the numbers in my sig.

Oh and i have Bens old cam in my shop

 

I did 500 rwhp at 8 psi on a stock 5.3 with an sts kit.
