For another consideration at a lower cost, there is the ~Cartuning Performance 3.8L Turbo Kit~ , dyno shows 296 HP at the wheels on a NA L36 3.8L.


Your trans will hold up for a while but it all depends on your driving habits.

Just an excuse to get a ZZP upgraded trans...

Yeah, that could be a problem.. I have not seen or heard of the RSM 3.4L supercharger package. Sounds cool....

This guy has been running the RSM kit for quite a while now with no problems. And really, RSM kit is the only real choice for those that want to keep the 3400 and make some decent power with it. Other wise your options are to swap in a 3800, either the L36 or L67.

He can mostly be found over on another Monte forum.
