I managed my power figure with less than a grand, if I spent 7 grand on my engine I would imagine substantial improvements!←that's true, but the VE isn't the price of the XR. With your car, and mods, he's still got a cheaper car... probably not as good, but 247rwkw none the less. I've seen older SS's going for 20k, add 10k for a twin turbo set up and it'll be hectic!! Total cost about 30k. Further to that, you could buy a V8 LS1 commy for around 15k, and add the 10k to twin turbo it and look out.. nice little sleeper there!

It does not matter how my rwkw you got because you are always going to find someone whos got more then you.So the most important point is, Holdens are and fords are no matter what they do to thier common hores. Just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XtRmn8 570Nm @1800rpm Donating Members 2,441 Member For: 21y 2m 5d Gender: Male Location: Perth, WA Posted 19/10/06 09:31 AM Share Posted 19/10/06 09:31 AM I would be suprised if it pulled 150rwkw stock!Stock 182kw BA's pull about 135rwkw. Hard to imagine a 180kw V6 Late model camira pulling 150rwkw stock, more like 135ish I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
