![]() Us V6 owners spent less on our rides, saved more with plans of tuning, and will spend more than the V8 guys to get real power out of our rides. I really think that there is a huge aftermarket gap created by lack of tuning that has done little to dissuade V6 ownership and so it goes without saying that if and when tuning becomes available, mark my words IT WILL SELL BIG.bigger than you or DS expected respectively and I really suspect that if the tunes are "all that", then it will be some tuning companies bread and butter for a while in comparison to other markets. I dont even think I heard this much demand from the HEMI crowd number for number. The Pentastar V6 market is locked in and ready to roll with custom tuning, demand and presence can be felt in any relevant given internet medium where the option is given. I know I've said this already, but I'll say it once more and let time do the talking and history prove me right. Mike_Levy wrote:Sorry I was thinking of the 3.5s SOHC heads. You said it yourself, how you get there is unimportant. we actually want the same thing, so why are we on different sides of the coin when we share a common goal. This can be confirmed on the Pentastar website in the specifications section. Lastly, around 10% of our power is cut from the 3.6l (factory tuning) for smoother driving. If Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, BMW, Mercedes, Ford, Chevrolet, GM, and Dodge werent going for an engineered HP per liter in the R&D stages, there would be no need for your coveted V8 engine as ample output could be achieved with smaller displacement and cut manufacturing costs associated with V8s. The Pentastar V6 is DOHC with four camshafts so I dont know where you get the SOHC argument. As for Honda and Toyota, Toyota was the first to manufacture VVT and licensed it to others, Honda was the first manufacturer to engineer and design it to greater effect (Vtech) so they have their hands in pretty much every modern motor design that uses cam phasing or variable valve technology.think about that for a second. or performance as you state.pushrods work damn good though. Firstly, engineering does alot to determine potential output. ![]() Now Mike, let me address a few inconsistencies with your post. To the poster attacking Mike, there is no need for those tactics here, if you want a civil discussion then lead by example my friend. But wtf do I know since I'm looking into buying an 'engineered' V6. The PentaStar over the Hemi? Is he stupid? I don't care how highly engineered it is, its still short 65hp and over 100ft/lbs and theres no excuse to choose it for anybody who can afford the Hemi, let alone anybody who has any intention of modding. ![]() If everybody agreed then what would people talk about? Conflict breeds interest. I've been modding cars for longer then most V6 owners have been alive.Īnd your unwritten rules make for boring forums. You think I'm a kid, I'm probably older than you. You sound like a ricer with your engineering talk and hp per liter. Surely their DOHC motors must be better then your SOHC. You want engineering, go buy a Honda or Toyota. In this world, performance is what matters, not how you get it. Okay, get that through your head right now. Mike_Levy wrote:I was done with this thread, but now you pulled me back. You, apparently, did not get that memo and thee life needs a little bit more purpose, son. Maybe some people do their research and realize that the Pentastar is up to par or surpasses the engineering of a HEMI, but hey that's spanish to you since I am not talking out of my ass, right? How much do you need to compensate-how sheepeshly brainwashed are you-how much were you bullied as a kid (which seems like a few years ago) to say V8's are the end-all-be-all?įorums have a unwritten rule to automatically beget respect while amongst like minded individuals. So V6 owners are poor and children.gotcha. The BMW and Benz owners (especially M and AMG) can afford one after a day or twos work and buy without a second thought. The kids who buy the V6 Challengers, Chargers and such may have to work 3 weeks to buy a Trinity, and thats if they have no other bills. spx#page=1īesides, AMG and M owners are far more likely to mod their cars then 3.6L owners, and they have money to do so.
