no vn s1 engines and no rockers crank cannot be balanced its mainly up to a good cam and tune

yeah i thought it was you (charged vn). it took us a few laps to firgure out why ur engine rev's died so quickly and why it made a weird sound every now and then. hahaha.. and and yeah still waiting for a drag meet to come up so i can run in it. i should run a high 9 if not it'll be a very neat...

so any one actualy KNOW of a place were u can get turbo setups DIRT CHEAP.. i mean. would you really want a dirt cheap turbo setup?. the cheapest kit i kno of was about 2600 and was for a vn and really.. was'nt worth the money. thanks for the import tim u've forver been and always will be...

i've been looking everywere for a full turbo setup.. fuel system turbo the LOT.. for 1500. i've never come across anything anywere near that price. i'd change my rockers.. that may have been my oppinion.. oops. might aswell tho. it will help the resulting powercurve

a tuned xr6 with an exhuast has 165rwkw.. well it does if u go to a well used ford tuner in ballarat. which the one that beat me did. and like i've said previously about the 1/8th times i've only just gotten back to work and hopefully when the next test n tune comes along i'll have my stuff...

we have a contender for the gold medal of useless..... of the day.. with one hour remaining is there any more stupid comments?

wow.. looks wierd with all the space were the tb used to be.. still a bang up kit. i'm hoping to get one in the near future i just hope my comp ratio wont be a problem... oh and is the reverse plenum a must have for the intercooler kit?

we have a winner for smart arse dumb **** of the day!... wow u've never heard of an expression. and yes there still are sheep stations here... cross the bridge or head to wolpola. no more then a 20min drive from the city centre...and i dont kno what u mean by dwindling citrius orchards. i kno of...

u seen how much these systems are worth!!... i've never seen a manifold worth buying under 1500 bucks!!.. bang a turbo on that with oil lines and exhuast worth and fuel pump and injectors and rockers and blah blah... i'd be on the phone to tim from raptor s/c and getting a pro street...

been there and done that. hamburger with the lot.. only thing i did'nt **** with (ask anyone that as seen my thread) was the crank and pistons. i made 155rwkw. i'd say 145-150 with a GOOD TUNE!!... but expect high 130's... and expect ignition problems with an up'd comp ratio. and a big bill. one...

??? the only holden that has done that was a s/c'd one and off the lights. and i sat near its back bumper. not one more inch was given from there. and if that was u drivin that, ur the only one i ever mention that's had half a chance and often use it as an example to my mates to get them off...

??? whats the benefits of the extra 3k for the stroker over the already 5k of the cam and rockers. if u read my other forum u'll see what i've done and i got 155rwkw. what added hp can be gained from running a stroker kit in it? i dont think there is anyone within 10 digits of my area code that...

I'm back lol wow did'nt think i'd be back on this topic or ever find it again. just decided i'd come back and check the forums for a mate to give him basic tips on doin up his old buik v6. wow how topics have evolved!... well were do i start yes i'm still running a ported maf sensor the chip...

what software is there.. if any to tune a v6 ecotec vs. ? is there any or do i have to upgrade to a haltec of similer

now running 155rwkw with the new exhuast and VT air box. i'd love to run a v8 but i'm in victoria and the police here are horrible with there power to weights and yeah.. not allowed to drive a v8 anyway. but having a v6 that it suitable for boost is'nt a bad thing. its snappy sounds great and...

i'm still here and still not careing at all about the critacism from alot of the other people in this forum. but since last dyno tune (unfiltered 147rwkw) to filtered 155rwkw and still hav'nt played with the manifold or plenum. not heavily anyway . cheers i might post somthing down the track if...

the whole point of this discussion was about manifolds.. c.o.m.e and mace ones and it kinda spread into the porting of maf sensors... no real answers to the best bang for buck with the plenum spacers and tb's etc.. everyone thats ment to be doin a test does'nt seem to be posting results so were...

i've already spent a few BIG dollars.. whats a few more.. were just trying to get what i've got running 100% then i'll go from there.. but i've got a fuel supply problem.. something to do with the fuel pump or fuel reg.. also one question! are vs commodores ment to hold pressure in there fuel...

even in the rain the pod would be useless.. i agree that it would have lots of lag. i just had my ute on the hoist and came to the conclusion that we could have it up the back and have the pod filter suck air in the gaurds of the tray.... but i'm still not 100% certain that a turbo back there...

sircruisealotVS.... why would i even bother telling such a narrow minded twat like yourself anything to do with performance.. i dont realy even beleive u have eyes.. because clearly its easy to see how a ported maf would be an advantage in any case!. the only stroking you've done is of your...

do you agree with were the air cleaner is tho!?

anyone disputing the maf sensor statements read "come intake manifolds"

safe to say that in the right situation a ported maf or ls1 maf sensor's provide gain and as all n/a ecotec guys know every little bit helps. and that a 200rwkw ecotec is possible! but expensive. can we get back to the subject of discussion.. manifolds? who makes them.. (note manifolds.. not...

i am currently runnen the largest pod i could find in autobahn (k&n) and to be honest it may have made a difference from the stock vs airbox but it would be very small. the difference between the pod filter attached and the pod filter off were somewere around the 10kw mark (yes i know an air...

my receipt for my engine work says crow cams stage 11 but it might be 1 i'm not sure i just wanted a small tourqey cam and 1.8 ratio roller rockers. roller rockers do tend to make a large difference. i only went 1.8's because i was a bit nervous about clearence at high rpm and wanted to allow...

MaN|aC we dont have a 1/4 mile strip here but we do have a 1/8th and before the engine work or much of anything my best time was 10.36 at 70mph or similer not quite sure on the mph.

considering my motor probably was around the 100rwkw mark when i first started i rekon what i've done so far has been a few serious steps in the right direction. if i do hit 200rwkw ( i doubt it) but if i do it'll be with a different manifold. and i dont think that will happen.. but listen mate...

is there anyone that has done this or know of anyone that has done this. i figure that a turbo mounted towards the rear of the car would produce some rather large LAG issues but there are alot of people in the states doin it.. any results? suitable for low boost cars? (alright guys that hate me...

i was under the impression that a 3" would flow better and be more suited to a cam and roller rockers but despite that i'm going with 2 1/4 twin cats into a 3" single. i'm suffering from a huge amount of back pressure issues at the moment it was alright before the cam and roller rockers but not...

imortality i agree with almost everything you say.. if only other members were'nt so narrow minded. 200rwkw v6 n/a is'nt impossible only people that go to college and earn NO INCOME would say such a thing. the fact that i'm spending enough money to transplant a 6L (if it fits) into my ute.. i...

the 147rwkw and the 200rwkw.. i've been to 2 different dyno's and one is very happy i've learnt now and the other ruffly on toe.. but no dyno is 100% accurate.. i've ported and polished my maf.. i had it chipped to match it aswell i noticed a difference and so did the dyno. HOW CAN U ArGUE WITH...

maf sensor a reality a vt air box will fit if ur not a sheep... CUSTOMISE!.. and the maf sensor does make a big difference.. i have dyno results to prove it and so do 4 other people in mildura.. (north west victoria) i do have a chip tho.. the chip does not include the porting of the maf and it...

if ur cam is'nt VERY agressive.. 1,9's will clear.. i went for 1.8's just for a bit of a safty margin and yeah.. a 3inch all the way threw flows better then the twin options

5L's around here ar'nt slow.. there just slow all together... i'm talkin about oversized camshafts and rockers NOT OVERSIZED CRANKS AND PISTONS.. prices for stuff is different were ever u go.. there are a few good mobs in sydney that do heads that were mentioned in street commodores... and...

i hav'nt seen a 5L beat my v6 anywere.. start middle or end.. what torque has ur's got?

best bet is to go and get 1.9 ratio roller rockers if u think u might end up goin for a cam down the track.. to be honest my ute does'nt use that much more fuel with a mild cam.. its just that i drive it harder now LOL.. theres another car around here that has 1.98 ratio roller rockers port...

?? are you completely high... that exhaust would provide near no top end band at all.. i'm swappin to a twin 2.25 with hi flow cats into a 3" from just before the diff back.. thats what i'm goin for and with rocker's u'll basicly have the same setup as me.. port your MAF sensor out and fit a vt...

would'nt call everything i did a waste of money.. but theres just not out there for the ecotec motor.... very limited

i spent 5g on stuff for my ecotec and i'm pushing 147rwkw and over 200 on other dyno's. but i got a cam roller rockers port and polished everything.. learn from my mistakes.. same power can be reached for HALF the price some of it can be done DIY quite easily cheers will post results of my v6...

i'd go and grab a die grinder and grind the F*** out of ur maf sensor and if its a vs get a VT air box.. much bigger.. with cold air intake.. grind that out too!! make that heaps bigger.. then throttle body grind him out bigger to. polish ur plenum right up. then go 1.98 roller rockers and then...
