well if they do decide to build one, my truck will be back to stock and a new colorado ss will be in the driveway lol.

 

and i will have one also however


GM will never build it. its against their "we cant build anything high performance because it might actually compete with the corvette or there isnt a market for high performance" rule

 

I had a 3.5L/5-speed regular cab power nothing truck that was just an absolute blast to drive. I would put it up against a stock 5.3 silverado anyday. The big issue was traction, coming off the clutch meant wheel hop and big time. Counldn't make a 1-2 shift at WOT for all the wheel hop. There was a ZQ8 version that ran consistant mid 9's in the 1/8th mile. www.coloradofans.com is a good website for the colorados

 

a rcsb colorado I5 against a rcsb silverado 5.3, would be about the same times stock for stock. who ever gets the best light would win.

 

As long as your not just pulling that out of your *** that pretty much sells me on the Colorado....I can handle that kind of power, that's pretty decent actually for a 5 cyl

 

good luck finding supporting mods for it as in boltons

unless i just wasnt looking in the right places, i couldnt find much a couple of months ago when i was comtemplating getting one

 

I'll be going strictly turbocharged....as long as I can find larger injectors and HPTuners supports it within the next 6 months I'll be golden. I'll fab up a header if I have to but I'd rather use the stock manifold if I can for now

 

how many psi are you planning on runnin
you're doing this on a stock cam hmmmm

i want to see results
keep us posted on progress

 

Max 10-12psi, and yes, I'll be using the stock cams to start out with....I'll probably run a meth setup as well just as a precaution

 

Do they have cams yet for the I-6? If so maybe a machine shop could cut off the lobes for the back cylinder. Just a thought.
