As long as it makes more power than Leighs motor

 

How much rwkw does his car make again?

Given my engine is 320kw stock, the 325 kit becomes the 375 kit I believe... Seem to be big losses though, 375kw resulting in like 280rwkw on their hub dyno... Maybe I've been out of the game too long but I don't remember skylines etc having that much drive train loss..

Holden's don't have huge drivetrain loss, it's just that their power figures are bullshit to begin with... They've always been that way

 

 

[dezz]

Still feels pretty fast.. Sounds pretty good too for a stock car

[emts]

Yeah I remember them back to back Dynoing the 435KW HSV GTS and the 351kw FPV GTF   and the falcon had 20ish more RWKW.

Holden always over estimated, ford a bit more conservative.

I heard a car flipped at sandown wrx track day on the weekend. Possibly turn 1. Maybe tried to steer through the kitty litter.
I'll need to check natsoft to see what times that white 33GTR was doing...

Yeah holdens always been more about a 'real' power figure which doesn't equate to much 'rwkw' compared to ford who list their number as almost 'rwkw' number. Not hating on Holdens, I actually like both. Holden have better interior and features, and update the nicer things more often, ford have better gearbox / engines IMO

 

There's 2 ways to go about an SS, big dirty cam and exhaust, keep it N/A for just over 300rwkw (ish)? or just bite the bullet and slap a charger on it from the get go for 400rwkw (ish)

Factory LSA charger off the GTS on this SS apparently makes 442rwkw with a few other things done to it too

Sell Jetski and get a supercharger, at least you use the car. 

Keep bike cos it aint worth much, then track it when you can be stuffed.
