    Yeah I'm just pointing out that its an oddity these days for such a highly developed NA to exist.

    Theres no way that a chip and cam alone would give 155kw even at the flywheel. you would need an exaust system and intake system upgrade with that and you might get close.

    With that compression you would need to run 98 octane premium and an additive minimum.

    Hell yeah LOL super uber high comp hand grenade. I like that idea of raising the compression just not as high as him. The port matching was nice though and machining something off the TB butterfly so that it opens the full 90 degrees. hmmmm
    *starts drooling* LOL It must sound awesome I love the sound of a straight 6, theres nothing quite like it.

    actually the rwkw figure you stated is a bit optimistic for a standard engine, its more like 75-80 rwkw, even in a manual. A manual car is just slightly lighter and gets better bite from the clutch, thats why they feel faster.

    90-95 rwkw is around what a standard vp makes.

    Unless in a Turbz or a Veeee 8.

    Yeah in N/A, the 5 Speeds rock. That's why there's more people doing Auto to Manual conversions, then the other way around.
