Howsee Donating Members 785 Member For: 17y 2m 20d Gender: Male Location: Carindale, Brisbane Posted 06/10/11 10:59 AM Share Posted 06/10/11 10:59 AM Figured it's about time I posted up into the 300+ club.I have a FPV GS 315 sedan with the 5.0L S/C V8 and ZF, dead stock it made 396rwhp/ 295rwkw and managed a 12.81@109MPH the day after I picked it up.http://i1112.photobu...owsee/Dyno1.jpgAbout a month later I sourced a K&N Filter which raised the power up to 408rwhp/ 304rwkw, so spent roughly $125 cracking the 300rwkw mark.http://i1112.photobu...owsee/Dyno2.jpgThen about another month after that I bit the bullet and got the car tuned by Lee at RDP in Redcliffe, raised the boost up to 8psi and made a decent 492rwhp/ 367rwkw with a truckload more torque.http://i1112.photobu...owsee/Dyno3.jpgCar goes really hard now compared to standard, definately the best $1600 I've ever spent on a car. Only area that the GS is now falling behind with is the braking capacity, so will eventually be looking at putting bigger brakes onto the car.Dyno sheets are attached.CheersHowsee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pazzo Donating Members 11,132 Member For: 14y 2m 4d Gender: Male Posted 06/10/11 05:34 PM Share Posted 06/10/11 05:34 PM Heard on the LS1forum that Mario from autotechnic in knoxfield ran a gt stock and got 296rwks. After a tune and just a tune and 2psi more they got 365rwks. Think I made a mistake ordering a new FG XR6T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
