155rwhp from vn v6

[sik-holden]

well just got my vn onto the dyno and she pushed out 155rwhp.

Now its only got cat back exhaust, bigger throttle body, pod filter.

is that a normal amount of hp for what has been done to the motor?

its a vp v6 with manual box, and yes the standard clutch lets go at 155hp lol

115kw. thats not bad. manual box would read a little higher then a auto. not bad. do you know what it was before the mods? thats the only true way to see what sort of increase you have. before & after runs on the same dyno

 

[sik-holden]

it is manual.
and no i dont just tring to compare coz i ran a vs the other day with just full exhaust, pod and mayby chip and i started pulling on him up around the 4000rpm mark

You really don't need a button clutch for 115kW. Have you ever drive one? They don't exactly make for a comfortable daily driver.. More than likely your standard clutch is just fried, and a new one would sort you out. Failing that, a regular heavy duty clutch will do the job.

OK, just read your sig, does it have a standard cam? it seems a bit odd because the ecotec normally have a beter topend then the buicks.

this wouldent be timmy from port would it? lol

 

[greenfoam]

Thats about what you would expect from a healthy manual V6 + exhaust, manuals do read a fair bit higher than autos

 

[sik-holden]

luke go away this is buick talk lol.
and yer standard cam, well it sounds standard i havnt pulled the motor apart as it was running fine. and the clutch wil be for when i get the money to finish the turbo setup. i have another thred for the clutch.

110-115 is about as good as it gets for a stock VN manual with bolt ons. i getting a dyno tomorrow mine is charged 5psi hope i pull atleast 140rwkw.

yeah, mine (VR) made 112.8rwkw - 151.2rwhp with Auto, CAI and lukey catback.

Im looking to have another run now ive got the Greenfoam tune, extractors, high flow cat and full trans and diff service done. Any guesses?
