    Default Supercharged VZ Alloytec

    I've had a good look through all the old threads and can see one or 2 people have but a blower on their alloytecs, but I just wanted to see if there are any new guys out there who have done it recently. I am pulling our raptor kit off the VN and putting it on our VZ and just want to get some idea of the different power levels people are making with a blower at around the 8-9psi mark. Anyhow, hopfully a a few of you have some graphs to post up.

    Internal's will be fine. All we are doing is the pacy's, twin 2.5" exhuast and hi flow cats, intercooling it, injectors and a tune. It all comes down to how good your tuner is really.

    From what I remember ImpulseSV6 was pulling around the 280rwhp mark with his setup, bout 9psi boost, stock internals. also iirc, he had roller rockers done too, but nothing else major. Hope that helps, oh and that stuff is fairly recent, talking 6 months or so ? I'm sure he'll swing past to give you a heads up heh.

    Could well have been, don't know, havn't seen the video's. I would imagine though that it would quite happily blow the doors off a 15 year old VR and a museum based VN any day of the week as it is. I know my stock SV6 does already. Have fun with that.

    Cheers.

    Well all our gear is on the way to get the blower kit on our VZ so hopefully should be a goer in the next few weeks. I'll be happy with anything around the 200rwkw mark. We are doing a 3.71 LSD as well which should hopefully get it going a bit better. It's pretty lame at the moment unfortunatly.

    Tim just asked me to detail a few things we are doing with this project as all the supercharger gear is coming off the missus VN and going onto her VZ. The progress so far is we picked up the VZ on Friday. Tim is sorting out the extra bits we need for the conversion and Chiptorque Townsville are handling the rest. The twin 2.5" exhuast arrived today along with twin high flow cats and the pacemaker extractors. Now we are hunting the diff gears and LSD. Tomorrow the blower kit/intercooling comes off the VN and the blower will be rebuilt by Tim and then put back on the VZ. Anyhow if people are interested I will continue to post updates. Otherwise I'll shut up and stop dribbling on the forum. Damo

    Yeh we probably will, I'll be happy if we crack the 13's. I have a turbo VP lined up to race against for funnies when we go to the strip, don't think I will beat it though.

    pretty much anything will spin tyres in the rain. that video looks painfully slow. looks like 8 seconds to 100km/h
