    ^^No problem...

    As for the GenV...Eaton even says spinning it with a 2.8" is the lowest you want to go. It gets WAY out of its efficiency range anywhere under a 2.8"...at that point...you'd want to go to a MP112 Hybrid, Full MP112 Setup, OR a Whipple W140AX with forged internals.

    2-3K for the blower alone...that's not counting the forged bottom end you need. I'd say 5K.

    Anything over a Gen5 is nuts for a bigger SC!! If your looking for more boost a far better route is to switch to turbo, considering the cost for anything over a Gen5. And I agree with Blue 100% no way in hell a Gen5 setup costs 1500 bucks I have a polished and ported gasket matched LIM and ZZP pulleys on mine and All said and done I will easily have less than 1000k bucks into mine for damn sure!! I think spending over 1k is nuts to get a excellent Gen5 setup done, anymore than that and turbo kits can be found for just a little more. Hell Ill bet for 1500 I can have mine done and include speed daddy headers and 60# injectors and everything needed for E85 which Im planning on anyways for around 1500 and my Gen5 lim and Pulley setup cost 700 shipped to my house.

    then i have been misinformed, however a cost of ~700$ will put a gen v on my to do list for sure.

    thanks for clarifying guys

    Well see its forsure a possibility and I looked on the canadian oqcgp.com website and people are looking for polished and ported Gen5 their too. It all depends on when my damn reenlistment bonus shows up so I can finish everything. I'd consider dumping this and going turbo instead. Even with a mild turbo set up Id hit my goals easy. I want a 350 to 400 WHP Regal GS. Dont really care what power adder gets me their all depends on the cost I guess and where I can find parts.

    So let me get this straight then... the gen v is only for people that run out of pulley sizes for the gen 3? So lets say i have a fully ported gen 3 with way an xp cam and supporting mods, no intercooler runnin what a 3.25 pully or whatever. There would be no gain goin to a gen v? I just dont wanna wast money if i dont have to.
