    My Vy Clubsport

    A couple of changes lately. I got rid of the xforce exhaust and got a Liverpool Exhaust custom dual 2.5. It craps all overt the xforce. It's not as loud and has a nice deep tone to it, with none of the xforce pop and cackle. Also I was thinking of getting new rims, and needed 2 new rear tyres...

    Ran a new pb! And I went to see Steve last week and got him to calm my idle back down, after I got him to rough it up a year or so ago. I was getting tired of the car rocking at idle which is where it spends alot of its time in heavy traffic. I must be getting old! Here's a video YouTube -...

    Got some ET Streets for Christmas on 16's as well as a Ripshift! For anyone looking at doing the same thing with 16 inch rims over 310mm HSV rear brakes. Below are some pics with 3mm spacers. I get 6 turns of the nut with my street rims, and with the 16's and spacers I get just over 4 and a...

    No mate. The car made more power with the dual 2.5 system. I think the dual pipe helps speed up the gasses so it helps make power better than the big single.

    Got a Dus ported throttle body fitted. It feels alot snappier than it did, I am actually surprised at how it feels. A great mod for the price. This pic shows the difference compared to the stock TB

    Steve from Oztrack touched up my tune today, as I have added high flow cats and changed the 3.5 single to dual 2.5. The result was 294.4rwkw! Not bad for a 'little' cam daily driver The first run today it made 285rwkw so I gained about 9rwkw. Here's the sheet from today. When I was there they...

    I was looking at going dual 2.5's to quiet it down a bit. It sounds great, but she is pretty loud now the ballistic cats are on.

    I was going to sell my single system, but I have decided it sounds too good! Here's a video of it on cold start. The camera was 5 or so metres down my drive on full zoom so the sound wouldn't distort on the mic! YouTube - 220/220 cam, 100cpsi Ballistic Cats, Sureflo 3.5 single (loud) Cold start

    I had some 100cpsi Ballistic cats fitted at Sureflo today. They made a massive difference to how the car sounds. I drove all the way home with the windows down! They have made the car feel a bit more responsive, and stronger in the midrange. Money well spent. Here's a video. I forgot to switch...

    Here's an in car video of my first run the other night. The camera shakes a fair bit as I had it wedged under the headrest! Dropped the clutch in 2nd at the start and it revs to 7k in an instant, then on to a sloppy start 13.2. It also gives an idea of how the exhaust sounds as I drive...

    I enjoy running on street tyres at the moment. I want to crack a street tyred 12.5 or below, then I will look at MT Streets and 11's.

    I ran a new PB tonight of 12.7@112mph (180kph) on street tyres. There is more in it now that I have the Z Grip and can start to launch at higher rpm than before. I am stoked that I've finally cracked a 12 as the car is driven on the street everyday :)

    I haven't run it at the drags yet, but I am going this Wednesday so I'll let you know. How do you like your Z Grip? I was worried it was going to shudder to much for a daily driver, but mine is great! Have you had your on a dyno since the dual 3 inch? What did it make?

    Ran my car at a Dyno Day on he weekend, it made 288rwkw. (DD Dyno) While I was there Steve (oztrack) kindly touched up my idle for me. When the cam went in I asked him to make it as smooth as possible, I have changed my mind. Here's the result (taken on my phone camera)

    I have finally had the clutch done. I bought a Textralia Z Grip. I was a bit worried that it might be a pig as a daily, but it is fine. In some situations it takes a few more revs to avoid shudder, but it is worth it because it really bites. I didn't realise how bad the stock clutch was...

    Anyone have or know anyone who has one of these???

    If you want an OTR check out mine. It is a Duspeed OTR and can be ordered at oztracktuning.com.au. It scoops in air from behind the grill. The plastic piece you see in the pic is so you can easily remove the filter to clean it, or run at the drags. I think they are still $595 and you can easily...

    Here's a pic of a VZ maff. Maybe chris_1987_VL can take a better pic of that section of piping?

    Sluggish ls1, help plz

    My thoughts exactly. I don't know why they would have changed the maf to a later model one, but I assume they all do the same job.

    Sluggish ls1, help plz

    What is this plug in the pic? It looks like the maf sensor plug, and the plastic tube looks like a Maf out of a VZ??

    no rear muffler

    Don't do it. It sounds like crap, all pop and fart with no tone. If you want it louder save the cash and fit a proper catback.

    Maybe CHE told him it's impossible to crack a 12 with the 3.07's LOL!

    Cam in LS1 - big improvements?

    As I said before most 23x/23x cams easily net 300+ rwkw but they sacrifice low down useable power. I would be ****ed with my tuner for anything less with that size cam. But it depends on whether the owner wants to impress with dyno numbers, or have a quick street car.

    I guess you changed your mind about a descreet idle? LOL! Good luck with it mate. Post up your results.

    Cam in LS1 - big improvements?

    By small, I mean most people these days go for cams in the 23x/23x range. These cams do make big numbers on the dyno, but, (now this will get the big cam lovers going) a small cam makes it's power in the range you use everday on the street. Not just the top end, which you only hit on a dyno or...

    Had your cam done yet Ricecooker, or as per usual, were you just talking it up??

    Cam in LS1 - big improvements?

    That's with stock throttlebody, heads and cats. I have dynoed my car at the same place since it was stock. When it was just mafless it ran 248rwkw on the same dyno, so the cam gained me around 35rwkw peak power, but it has ALOT more torque. It's a DD dyno. I am waiting for someone to do a dyno...

    Cam in LS1 - big improvements?

    I have a 220/220@112 LSA with .581 lift Comp Cam with XER lobes. My car made 283rwkw, the little cam is great. It idles with a bit of chop, but still has stock manners, which is what I was after as I drive in heavy Sydney traffice everyday. It is VERY torquey and will easily send me sideways...

    Cold air intake

    If you go with an OTR you will also need a Mafless tune. If your not going to get it tuned, just do the trusty old 2 hole mod. Steer clear of SS Reductions Kits.

    best cats?

    Having no cats gets you a fine. Having aftermaket cats, they might make you refit the stock ones to remove a defect sticker. I am sure that 100cpsi (high flow) cats would work just as well as some of the 10 year old cars out there that have never had the cats replaced.

    Prep for Drag and Dyno

    I run the same size rims and tyres on my car, and I have found that 25psi works well for me.
  40. VYClubby

    Prep for Drag and Dyno

    Also put some octane booster in your fuel. Remove the air filter if it isn't the factory air box. And at the drags drop the rear tyre pressure to 25psi.
