I have searched and searched for a FULL exhaust system (headers -cat-muffler- tips) for my '06 monte. I don't have the funds to go custom made, not yet anyway. But, nonetheless, I don't want to have to. Any help is greatly appreciated from this noob.

I've had lucille for a year now. Not much as far as upgrades except for a custom ported and polished intake, and xenon light conversion.

 

theres not a whole lot of parts for that engine out yet, i do know that the 3500 is a modified version of the 3400 for emissions, so not sure if 3400 headers would work, but headers for the 3400 are about 550-700 bucks, so i would think 3500 headers would be a little more, since it hasnt been out as long, to give you a price range.

 

Cool beans, i'll have to look into it, i don't want to push tghe envelope with an engine swap, i'm in college. But i would like to add some more beef to it. I looking at a twin turbo kit for the 3500. I'm curious if anyone has experimented succesfully with this. Note: I'm a shadetree mechanic and a college kid that needs his car as a daily driver, I don't want to blow any manifolds.

thanks for the quick reply trweyn

 

lol @ blowing the manifold, this isn't fast and the furious

As far as I know, there are no bolt on turbo kits for the 60* V6's; only for the 3800's.

If you're talking about a custom setup- then why twins? A single turbo has proven to be plenty effective with fewer plumbing complications. Worried about spool time? Then don't get a massive turbo that can flow enough air for 800hp; and don't cheap out and get some garbage $100 Chinese ebay turbo- there is plenty of new technology out there in the turbo world to keep spool time down.
