VE Calais V/Red Line
Hi all i have a VE Calais Redline 2011, and wanting to give it a bit more grunt, could any of you guys give me a few ideas of a good cam package, or up around near the biggest cam i can go with out having to put a stall in it and it is still reasonable to drive at lower revs, thanks.

Im looking at doing the same on my VE Calais Redline. Extractors, exhaust, (High flow cats) X over and maybe Cam and lifters?

Whats a Calais Redline? Do you guys mean Calais V? Pretty sure Redline is only a top tier SS variant is it not? Is my whole life a lie?

Not OP, but he is sporting an aftermarket L77 badge. You can get them and others like them online for L77,76 & 98. They are designed to look like the LS3 ones.

Ha ha ha, Holden offered a Redline in the Calais for the Series 2 VE. It came with Brembo brakes, OTR along with other options. Irs a awesome car, just want to do some work to it and I’m not sure where to start.

Yes, it is a genuine model, but Holden have never offered a vehicle with an OTR. HSV did with the W427, but Holden never have.

wow, it came with an OTR factory? My 2016 SSV Redline didn’t even get that. I’ve bought a VCM OTR for it, but haven’t installed it yet. Did you get brembos all round, or just fronts?
