Looks like some nice HP increase for headers/exhaust/cats ..... ~41RWHP untuned

Now all you 400hp cry babies can shut up now lol

I didnt read it all....this is without a tune?

Yeah just exhaust mods

"We then fitted a long set of 1¾" 4>1 extractors and hi-flow 3" stainless steel substrate Ballistic cats and tested it again. The car pulled 257rwkw, but because of the extractors and cats opening up the sound even more it droned a bit so we put one of our patented merge pipes in and tested it again. The power jumped to 260rwkw and this is without being tuned, keeping in mind this is a stock SS with Extractors, Cats and our Dual 3" System with patented merge pipe"

260 kW equals 356.2 hp atw

So around 420hp at the flywheel if my calculations are correct. (15% drivetrain loss)

Around 58hp increase at the flywheel


EDIT: Ok just a quick change it seems that the Commodore has a round a 15% drivetrain loss.

Either way thats friggin impressive...

Yeah just imagine what the HP gains will be with a set of Kooks, Magnaflow catback and a good tune......should shut the "LS2 or bust" people up

Yes, this sounds good.....

Sound Clips? PS, I'm not trying to promote anyone's product, just trying to give everyone a sample of the HP improvements and sounds that the new VE/G8 is going to be capable of.

This is incredible!! It puts the HP right where my GTO is!! As things unfold, some of our locals like Borla will make systems that do the same thing.

Awesome, thanks dude.

that does sound really nice

This waiting for the cars is unbearable.

LOL! You have a year to wait! For the record, it's killing me too!

I want a six speed, so it's going to be even worse when the autos get here first! :whine:

Thanks for reminding me. :comp:

I'm gonna have to strangle someone at the dealership in order to get my 6-speed here ASAP. Seems stupid for the manuals to be a month (or more) after the arrival of the autos. Maybe GM will ask Holden to build plenty of 6M cars in order to be available at launch. Either that, or I can put in an order as soon as they are accepting them. I could get a TPW & my "founding member" tag. :D
