RE: 06 3.9L VS SC3800
Hi Josh & Welcome to the MCF,
Please post pic's of your 06 Monte. Give us a review of your Monte and
what you like or dislike about it.
I have been searching for information on the same question, but have not
been able to locate a comparsion. You will just have to cruise the roads and
find a Sc/SS 3.8 & line them up . Oh, and then give your report
Did you purchase your SS tips from a Dealer ? Did you weld them on ?
Would love to see pic's...Please
Safe/Happy miles 2 U...`Space

off the line the 3.9 will take the sc, on top end it's the other way around

your information ? When you said Top end, did
you mean Top Speed or the end of a 1/4 mile run ?
My friend hooked up a G-Tech device to his Mom's LTZ with a 3.9 &
he claims it did 0-60 in 6.62 sec & 1/4 miles in 14.83 sec @ 93.8 MPH.
I haven't tested mine yet...have you ? Keep us posted...EnJoy[8D]

hey thanks for the warm welcome, my wife's mother is a professinal photographer so i am going to see if i can get her camera to take some pics, well my 2006 monte carlo lt3 is gold with black cloth. 3.9l tint and the tips, i like it it rides good, no wind noise all the digital features compass temp ETC. , dislikes no trunk light or hood light.
The tips were a dealer item at $75.00 A PIECE plus tax they are a bolt on clamp style so no welding required but you do have to have your current stock tips cut off 3 inchs but if you buy them, they do give you very detailed instructions. i took mine to a local muffler shop and he cut the pipes for free i just had to put them on, all you need, after they are cut off is a 15mm deep well socket and a wrench. very easy to do.
i have had many fast car's my latest was a 95 trans am lt1 bored .30 with tons of interal mods and free mods 1800.00 trans mission and about 10 grand in the motor ran constant 12 .1 at 114 on 93 octane, the only then i need to do was lower the gears i had 3.23's and i couldnt get a faster trap speed. killed me.
I took my 06 monte out to the local drag spot, havent been in a couple years, they repaved it so the lines were not there but my trap speed was around 91-93 so the post that space rider claimed is true i look forward to seeing low 15's to high 14's out of the stock form. I was really impressed with the top end of the 3.9 l and would find it difficult for the s/c 3800 to have much more topend if any faster then the 3.9 i was just wondering if anyone has lined them up. I know in some of the rpm range of the 3.9 is doggy so in some spots i must agree that the sc 3.8 would out accelerate it in some spots.
thank you any comments or questions let me know, josh oh yeah do you guys have any stickers for advertising the website or anything like that ?
