hey all a guy guy came in2 my work with a vp 3.8 he had extractors cai full performance axhaust (auto lol) factory internals he recons he spent 2000 bucks on a computer upgrade wich gets his vp 2 a 0-100 in 6 seconds flat is this possible or is he pullin my leg? he also sais he could get it down 2 about5 and a half seconds with a bit of work basically is this bloke full of ****? lol
cheers vks any posts would be appreciated
i think SICK SS said it all
High 6's would be possible I think, 6.9 or 6.8.
They run 0-100 in 8.0, add on those mods and an all important tune and you can take a heap off that time... So yeah i'd believe high 6's.
Well my VP does it in 6 seconds flat, but it's a 5 liter. A good VN V6 with a exhaust and full out tune would be between 7 flat and 6.8 I'd say, but no where near 6 flat
Isnt Hozy running 6 flat with his Ecotec, he posted a 0-100 run up before
Nah it's not 6 flat but its under 7
Yeh its definately pretty quick, heres the video in the link

my vr v6 with standard computer and chip, cai, ported/polished heads, extractors and 2 1/2" exhuast got 7.99sec 0-100km
Looking at the video Hozy's prolly close to 6.7 ish it's hard to tell exactly really but it should be around 6.4 without all the fuel and spare in it I'd say. It's a good example of how peak power means nothing at all. Most 5 liters with an exhaust but stock tune would be around that time and would show a peak power 30 or 40 rwkw more than Hozys car
it was far from accurate, thats, with no rev, and a stop watch (on my fone any how), times were 7.80 7.99 8.03
since those times ive had the diff and gearbox replaced and im saving for a low km motor, as the car has done around 230 000km
once the motors done ill be getting timed properly
what bull****...
I dunno, we've got some really steep hils around the Bridgetown area here in WA and I reckon I could get a stock VN to do a 6 flat....![]()
downhill maybe.

Well I have a comment and you guys might thinks I'm full of S#!T but that's alright, I own a New Zealand built 1989 VN commy with a reconditioned seriesII motor (143,000 on the clock at the time of recon) chip tuned and pod filter with 2 1/2 inch exhaust, lowered, fuel 98 with octane boost, fastest time I have done is 0-100kph in 6.7sec, that's with no spare or extra weight in the car. Since I have the work done on this car it has never run under 7.2 sec from 0-100. I have beaten VR's VS's VT's (all V6's) maybe just lucky! or maybe just a sweet ride
he definitly wasted his money on fitting another ECU, especially as it won't get him 6 sec flat 0 to 100 with those mods. if he wants to front with atiming slip from the local 1/4 mile drag strip i'm sure many will eat there own words but not before, this reminds me ofthe 480rwhp n/a V6 guy![]()

LMAO @ immortality , i remember that![]()
That's the only thing when they talk of strokers they never talk power?
And for $2000+ for one i would hope it would clock sub 6 almost:d.
