Dumb question, but for all of us peeps who are not engine experts. Can someone please explain the advantages/disadvantages of a V6 Turbo vs naturally aspirated V8, assuming that they produce the same amount of hp and torque ?
Thanks! |

If everyone said skydiving was better without a parachute would you jump? OF course not!... making that comparison doesnt fit at all.

TTV6vs Gen V (theoretically) Weight of the engine would be about equal Gen V V8 would have more HP and Torque. Fuel econmy would be about the same. once turbos are added, I bet they would cost the same if not a bit more than the V8. The LS3 is only 6.5k. All this assumes a TTv6 would be similar to the TTV6 seen in Jay leno's concept camaro. (425hp, 400ft-lbs) |

17 ZL1 what a car....

602 lb. torque at 11K rpms (2.1 SLR). more than most V8's but at a big time cost. that is why I am on both sides.... but I like when you push the gas on a V8 the power is there....

Chances of the C7 Vette having a TTV6, even as an option, is zero. So let's just move on to the next thing to freak out about.
