View Full Version : hmmmmmm.... 5.4L 3V ?
So I'm shooting for a 5.4L 3v motor in the new ride...
Should I keep it N/A or do some forced induction??

High compression... NA Simple killer power maker
actually I gotta agree, that going N/A is very very very tempting.. super tempting actually.
what compression would you go with kev?

alan you will eventually throw a turbo on it so don't beat around the bush and just go for it.
if I throw anything at it, it's twins... iam getting them for free.

Another vote for n/a. 10 to 1 compression. Boost is for lil cubes.

Just make sure that you have your math straight cus once you put the block together it is gonna be what it is gonna be.
If you are REALLY considering an NA setup, don't puss out. Go 11:1 (or higher), run some race gas (and maybe some spray) and take care of business.
Going half assed with compression on a built NA motor because you might do boost later is just dumb.

your tires are bald :tongue:
that's why im trying to figure out what route to go.. nothing is more impressive than a N/A motor to be honest.. but then again the rush of boost hitting is badass.
im getting twins for free, and would be a waste of a sponsor to not use them though..
but i want something fast, but not stupid fast.. then again maybe i do.. so fucken confusing.

I'd say N/A, since you are already know how boost feels. Maybe a N/A done right might spark a new intrest. :whoknows:
