Coyote is the better option. Better yet just put a coyote in your new edge.


Pick your poison.

 

Coyote is always the better option

 

Coyote will be a better option. Between the supercharger or turbocharger kit needed, then forged internals, and the various seals, rings, bearings and other stuff, then you will most likely want head work and cams. Then factor installation cost in if you don't do the work yourself. Your better bet will be a coyote. A bolt on E85 coyote can make 450whp and hit major rpms. Then you don't have to worry about the added weight from a supercharger or turbocharger, and you also cut about 80lbs alone with the engine swap (even more if you use tubular suspension.

 

To put a number on it your looking at around 10,000

Don't forget the coyote only has 400 hp not 600 so in addition to the addition cost of the newer car you will probable have to add at least 10k if not more in the coyote to get to 600 hp

You can hit 600 hp for about 2k if you really wanted to.



?and ? fed coyote.

 

Slap on a vmp kit for 6 and,his 650 whp and call it a day

 

Ok so the avg cost for a coyote swap is around 15k? Would that be the same amount for a built 2v hitting 600?

 

Cheapest way to get 600 horsepower at the crank (as far as I know)


- Used 4.8L or 5.3L chevy vortec $600

- Gap the rings a bit, hone the cylinders (not absolutely necessary, but thorough)

- Junkyard Turbo- $300 (max) basically any turbo will work for this as long as it isn't so small that its absolutely choking your exhaust flow

- Used Holley double pumper $150 with mechanical secondaries and a boost hat (or have the turbos draw through the carbs if you're a real man/hot rodder)


- Turbo plumbing? $ 350 (I really don't know at all lol)


-Cheap homemade meth/water injection kit $50 (get your engineering brain on)


- Run 15 PSI $priceless

 

What is your overall budget? You can buy a turnkey lightly used 07-09 GT500 making 600+ and suspension work done too for $30k or so and it'll almost always be a garage queen. That is a LOT of car for the money.


A used Coyote base model 2011/2012 with low miles in good shape can be had for the low $20k range. And then a blower kit is $5k or so and basic driveline mods will be another $3-$5k.


Just to build a 2V that can do 600+ reliably is going to be about $15,000 for just the motor and blower. Probably going to be into it for $20-$30k including the cost of the car on a complete 2V build. The ONLY reason I myself have another 04-down car is because of the deal I got on my car and its a numbered special edition car. I paid for the entire car with suspension/bolt ons and a Novi 2000 and the fact that its a numbered car for the same money as just a new Supercharger kit.

 

15k will be the max budget. Not all at once lol. But I do love the new edge. I think a coyote swap would be my best bet. But toying around the idea of a boss block stroker combo.

 

You could literally buy a turn-key naturally aspirated (the best all around way to make power IMO) 600 hp crate motor brand new (probably with a warranty), and still have money left over for a good brand new transmission and swap it all into your new edge for that budget.

 

I wouldn't be to concerned with hp numbers honestly. Even with only 400 whp you need to upgrade brakes, suspension etc to be able to actually use the power. Something to consider

I have some suspension done. Sfc, lca, shocks an struts and lowering springs. Cc plates. Panhard. Brakes is something I haven't touched yet.

 

I do have some bolt on parts as well. I just need everybody's opinion on where the best investment would be at. I appreciate everybody's reply.

 

Tires are your most important piece of equipment followed by brakes then suspension then the rest. Honestly all bull**** aside an without any bias you smiles per mile to dollar factor calls for one single upgrade. Call kenne bell order their 2.1 intercooled kit. Heck they finance! You will have 425 at the wheels always in tap full boost from 2200 rpm and the damn blower never fails and the install is painless as far as forced induction goes. After that you can just worry about the looks and handling of your car. Kenne bell 1 stop sgop and done

725 gross horsepower. Easily over 600 when dressed with accessories.


$11k

Nowadays, you can actually build a Big Block Ford for less money than a Chevy.
A 532 stroker will make around 775 "real world" horsepower, and you can build one for less than $10k.

 

Here is the recipe.

I agree with all the suggestions... But it's still fun to build a 2 valve honestly... You would be surprised how much fun a properly set up 2 valve gt can be... Especially with a power adder and some weight reduction ?

If money wasn't an option and you want to keep your NE body like I do , I would go coyote swap all the way. It just has more potential in the long run

How many NA 2v,s are running 10's?

How many 500hp and below 2v's are running 10's ?


?and ? fed coyote.

 

Honestly you could go all out on the 2v and make 600 at the ground through a auto. And get beat at the track by a stock motor NA coyote.

Just the way the times are now. So many factors come to play. It's not just the HP# now.


Now imo the balls to the wall built 2v would have a better "cool" factor. And would sound a 1,000,000 times better.

9 second coyote swapped GT with a VMP..... Full weight car, manual transmission.

The coyote is what i plan on doing as of right now. This 4.6 is on its way out in the next few years so i'm going to ditch it and throw in the 5.0. Might be a few years though.

 

Tfs heads, lumpy blower cams, cog pulleys, eddy intake and a trans that will take 7500 shifts is nasty as hell tho. When you start doing "builds" a lot of it goes out the window.
