I don't know what the small turbos on this engine can push this engine to, but I'll tell you right now this thing can go much further. I'd be shocked if it can't.
The thing is based on the LFX 3.6, which has some forged internals like the crank, but is a bit weak in the rod/piston area. These things are strengthened in this engine.
Now, we have already seen someone here do a custom twin turbo job on a basically stock LFX and push it to nearly 600 REAR wheel horsepower before it blew up at the track. Now this owner has gone back and bought stronger internals and the engine should be much stouter.
With that in mind, not to mention the other changes to this new TTV6...I feel like we could see 475 - 500HP and 500+ TQ with just an aggressive tune done and nothing else.
