Just curious how much power would a vp put on the ground when it has a vs ecotec engine and manual gearbox with vs electronics, 1:1.98 ratio rockers, bored throttle body, extractors and a foam tune.
PS greenfoam if you read this i want to get incontact with you for a tune or 3. you are hard man to get hold of.
ditch the VS ecu and run the vn one much more power to be had going MAP
I tune the oldschool way fear on the passengers face and knuckle colour cant go wrong

it's hard to find someone who can do a tune for that correctly at a reasonable price.
Ok I'll talk to you later once I finish some 5 litre tunes I'm working on these last few days. But please do get rid of the VS ecu, on the VN ecu, 140 rwkw will be doable on that setup if the engine is healthy, you could make the same power on the VS ecu but it will be trouble with a big T. The best power I got from a VS with that setup and a VS ECU was 138rwkw (but it was an auto). But like I said I can't take any tuning on for a couple days because I'm way behind with ones I'm supposed to have done since ages ago
well i know one person who just fully custom tuned his ecotech in his torana he might sell you a tune to suit it really well.goes like a cut cat

works for me. hell of a lot less work.
just need an adaptor for the coolant sensor hole to suit VN sensor and slap a vn knock sensor in the block

that would be good to.
Are vt injectors the go?
I would realy prefer to run standard petrol as i will probably go places i can't get premium at.
got those bit.
vp spec and vt specs for the sensor are the same.
Looked into that one.
same resistance at same operating temps.

95 octane is best they wont take a lot of timing the old ecotech

Oh yeah that's a good idea, get Sammy to burn you his tune![]()
hehe its supposidley going pretty mental now just a shame he has zero traction LOL

He should have paced himself and went to a stock Rb30 first, 202 to V6 is a big jump, bit much for him :P
the 202 was making the same max HP as a buick at the wheels anyway hes just gained a heap of torque everywhere before that rpm LOL

Yeah same max power, half the torque :P, those 30 extra cubes makes all the difference![]()
you don't have to much power till the industrial shed echos and the ground shakes.
gm8v71 with 2 damn short stacks. to drive the machine you needed ear plugs and ear muff and LARGE BRASS BALLS
delcowizzid, you forgot the MAT sensor i had to fit into the manifold!
yes traction is a problem .... but i am dealing with it the best way i can
centy: i noticed you've mentioned you want a lower octane friendly tune, problem is i only have a 98 approved tune .... i am planning to make a 91 tune so i have the option to flick between them if fuel is too dear or i can't get 98 etc but at the moment i haven't even started down the 91 path....
umm, yeah so bog stock eco, other than the sensors (vn CTS, MAT, MAP, and knock), then stock headers, into 2.5 inch cat, 2.5 muffler and out the back .... vn t700 with stage 2 shift kit and shes a goer![]()

i will have
ecotec, t5, 1:1.98 rockers, bored out throttle body, extractors, 2 1/2 or 3" single muffler cat back, (way loud) cold air intake, smoothed intake pipe and a free flow filter.
Later i may add the inlet plenum spacers to cool it down a bit more.
What more can i do without boost or changing internal?
I plan to use dynostorm on the car before and after for some real numbers.
with those sorts of mods im not really sure that my tune would suit your needs ... like i said its for a stock eco ..... just the rockers alone will make it want more air/fuel than my tune would deliver....
as for the way loud 3" exhaust, i wouldn't waste your time ... 2.5inch is even too big almost for a stock ecotec .....
as far as what else can you do to it ... probably not alot .... but a 'good' dyno tune would probably be your best bet to get the most power and economy you can .....
