wanting 150 kw's at the wheels

[tez]

Hi everyone, first of all my apologies if i have stared this thread in the wrong place .
My old wagon has had better days 340000 ks running duel fuel .
Well this year for xmas my old girl asked me for a new motor when it decided to let go , sounded like half a dozen marbles in a milo tin getting tossed about in the dryer
Anyway to the point i have spent a lot of $$$$ making this wagon look as sexy as it dose and its far to nice to tow out the farm and park under a tree.
Thismorning i bought a brand new conditioned long motor as standard and looking now to improve it so it not all show with no go...
Is it possible to pull 150-160 kws at the wheels with out turbos or surcharges , any ideas will be great , what has worked for you cash flow is no prob but keeping in mind my daughter will drive this car 2

For the amount of coin you'll spend getting that power n/a, you could buy a Raptor kit and get 200 kw at the wheels. And it will be more fuel efficient and better behaved.

Yeah a few people have got more than 150-160 with a bit of work. Is it manual or auto??

There is a bloke on this forum that has got 217RWKW from his N/A V6.
It is possible to get 150RWKW put a big cam in, shaved and ported heads and all your normal bolt on's and you should see 150 with a kalmaker tune to top it all off.

I got 148rwkw with only a mild cam, and some headwork. Engine was all rebuilt so its fresh too.

I have the smallest bumpstick here, COMP Cams to suit V6 Ecotec - Mace Engineering Group , so the stage 2 or 3 should see more power.

First up I know gilbs his car is sick he was my only real competition in v6 dyno days..

Second up sorry, you don't need half that crap just a good smart well matched engine...
My vx I just cold had:
Mace 1:98 rockers
Mace lower manifold insulater
Mace cooler thermostat
Hurricane extractors
Twin ls1 cats
Single custom 2.5 inch cat back
GOOD SAFE kalmaker tune
MRC PERFORMANCE twin throttle body manifold (the secret ingredient!)
Upgraded leads plugs etc etc
In a nice fresh (not rebuilt) motor

It pulled 150 odd kw and that was b4 Mrc performance upgraded the manifold design!

That engine bay looks smickkk mate!! Love the dual intake manifold! Any heat soak problems?

 

[ajvx01]

Yea was my pride and joy
The dyno graph shows the worst recorded heat soak from stone cold to really hot.

Sorry but you wouldnt need half that crap to make 150rwkw. 194hp isnt 150rwkw...
