As many of you saw on the Facebook page, Super Six Motorsports is starting work on the 3.5L and 3.7L Cyclone motors.
I have been in contact with their owner / mechanic about its application to the Fusion Sport and we have had great success.
It turns out that the upper and lower intake manifold on the Sport are shared with numerous other vehicles. With that being said, that means availability of spare parts is very high.
I'm acquiring a set this weekend to send to SSM for "testing". They have currently only done work on the TiVCT 3.5L, which has different intake manifolds.
I bought Joe's (slowLSJ) throttle body and upper/lower intake manifolds and I'll be using Super Six to port the manifolds relatively soon. I'll be getting the throttle body ported as well along with swapping out my Borla cat-back for custom "MRT-like" exhaust with parts from Vibrant and then getting my car dyno-tuned.
It did pick up a reasonable amount of power. It ran 13.6@103 with a crappy 60Ft on street tires compared to 14.1@98mph. I am gonna go back this summer with drag radials and an aggressive tune. If can run a low 13s with those mods and E-85 ill be happy i guess I suppose
Any news anyone? I read that the upper intake flows pretty well already and is not really worth porting. But the Lower intake seems like it is worth the $300 to port.
rpaz61, did you ever get yours done and installed?
I wish their heads and cams weren't so expensive, that's probably where most of the gains would be. I'd like to just throw 4k into my motor on this stuff and hope for 275 at the wheels. heh heh!
I hear ya there.... wish we all had infinite $$$ and time to invest in upgrading the engine but we don't. And plus, thanks to IL emissions testing, I'd be better off finding an older car to play around with.
I agree...unless you you are determined to spend an ass load of time and money on your car it is not worth going into.
You are better off just getting another car and start building that
