    Default To all v6 and v8 owners stop the madness

    Just a heads up to all the v6 and v8 owners! I have noticed more and more rediculous claims.
    No your na six does not make 260rwkw and no your tuned ls1does not make 300rwkws if your dyno guy told u this have him tested for heavy use of crack!

    Otherwise the Formula Holden teams would all be fighting it out to buy this motor, since their highly tuned V6s struggle to even get 230kw at the flywheel.....(even with only a 20% drivetrain loss it fails to crack 200kw at the treads).... so it really must be the cop chip doing it....
    Not to mention just for a comparison a vn series 1 v6 with a gt35/40 on it pushing 14psi. Its making around 300rwhp which is around 220rwkw.
    Stop the madness

    This thread was more to do with guys at work arguing about power of there utes etc lol. It's like one big dick measuring exercise lol

    I do realize not every one is like this, just when I read these posts it makes me smile

    Not all V6 owner are like that...
    Some are, but then again, some v8 owners are complete retards also..

    You cant tell a steroytpe not be a sterotype. Just let them be and be happy with your own 355, you dont need to prove anything.

    Ha ha a Vs turbo ute just claimed he made 250rwkw na before turbo. Just between just commodores and street commodores it's a pet hate. Lol
    I feel sorry for dudes if they purchased a car with dyno sheets etc.
    Yea prob plenty of v8s stretching it as well.

    Im not a V6 owner that thinks my car has a million KW, i know its slow, Mazda 3s can keep up.
    its a Family car, thats the whole point of them being so big to get all your shit and your family in them. And they are a nice easy to drive, and being extremely reliable.
    But i know what you mean with all the V6 owners that think they are in a V8 supercar lol

    lol not to stereotype v8 owners but i had one bloke in a VE SS continually try to drag me from about 4 consecutive sets of lights... this is with the V6 badge on the side of my car, the nice big S badge on the rear and all i have is an exhaust

    im happy for people who own v8's and yes one day i would love to own one... until then please stop trying to tell v6 owners how much better you are than them
    although i have to admit we do make retards of ourselves with claims of 380hp N/A but then who hasnt been on the go fast powder and figured anyone can build an accurate dyno LOL

    Dude, seriously get over yourself....For every wanker that owns a V6, there is a wanker that owns a V8. Not every V6 owner is the stereotype you make us out to be.

    My NA rb 30 pushes 200kw with the air con on and the windows open (it causes a sick racing slip stream from the vents to the back windows which pushes my car to its limitz)

    Just having a rant as find some claims laughable. But yea should have said 8s as well. Just easier to call bullshit on a six I guess lol. Had my new apprentice telling me his six would make 250at the rears. Just couldn't get his head around this been near physically impossible lol
    Tell me about it but I got it for a little over a grand already like that. Can't complain!
