Nice. HSV is going to be awesome. They will come out under powered but pop down to the local tuner and they will be animals.

So in theroy with just 16kw difference the much lighter vf ss will be faster then the current gts/r8.
Or will the diff ratio of the hsv get it over the line?

Good Article.... So looks like HSV will be 400+ KW's.... Nice

The 6.2L LS3, where is this engine made? Not Mexico like the current 6L?

thanks

Probably Mexico or Canada.

I cant see HSV jumping all the way to 400kw straight up. The clubby/maloo will probably have 330-340kw and the GTS will probably be 15-20kw more. In saying that though, they'll be just an exhaust/intake/tune away from well over 400kw

Exactly. Holden will only want to be 5-10kw higher then the ford 335 engine. Then they will just slowly up the output like in the previous models.

No point going all out when you can milk it and get a better profit.

As mention no way they will jump that high in output, have to have a trump card up your sleave to sell the series 2 to the HSV die hards.
