VF HSV Power Figures!

[Calais-V]

Just read in Top Gear Australia May edition and they have stated the power figures for the F Series range.

Clubsport 317kw 550nm
Maloo 317kw 550nm
Clubsport R8 325kw 550nm
Clubsport R8 SV Enhanced 340kw 570nm

And best of all
GTS 430KW 740nm - the same engine as the camaro ZL1 (Supercharged 6.2L)


Very very very exciting in my opinion!

And just think, They will all still be de-tuned.

so wait the ls9 is detuned into the lsa... and that is detuned into the HSV? wow someones gonna have some fun.... i really want to win the lotto now.

just did some interesting reading.... the main difference between the LSA which would be powering the GTS and the Mighty LS9 is that its a 1900 supercharger not 2300 and the compression ratio is a little lower than the LS9. so it looks like the walkinshaw 2300 supercharger would be a bolt on no?

still i recon you could squeeze 500+ at the fly. seeing as the LS9 has 475... with little work!

It doesn't make sense, the current hsv is already at 317kw.. Every model has gone up in power not stayed the same. Yes detuned, but surely not the same as the current model.

Speculative at best.

Good to see them getting back on the fi bandwagon

normally our "detuned" engines make the same horse power as the Corvettes.

"The Z/28 engine is adapted from the LS7 used in the C6 Corvette Z06, which was developed in conjunction with Corvette Racing. It is rated at an estimated 500 horsepower (373 kW) and 470 lb.-ft. of torque (637 Nm) in the new Camaro Z/28, with a maximum engine speed of 7,100 rpm – a broad rpm range that contributes to higher power and allows the driver to hold gears longer between shifts on the track. That helps keep the engine at peak power for quicker lap times."

Camaro gets 373kw so a 430kw GTS sounds pretty good.

Also this story says its 500hp
