VY UTE Upgrade

[ssute]

Just had fitted s/s 2.5in headers,sports cats and 3in bore mufflers.The whole system was designed to fit the VY Ute and the rear pipes exit in the same position as the original with no body modification required.The exhaust is well made and good quality with crossover pipe etc.Now the important bit,sounds like a deeper version of a TVR Griffith(it sounds the Dogs ,other drivers wind down the windows to listen to it go past.Performance is now more responsive and fuel consumption is also better.The exhaust was sourced by Alan at WRC(Thanks Alan) as i wanted a system that would fit my car without any modifications I am now booked in for Sat at WRC for Chris to work his magic on the rolling road,i will keep you all informed of the before and after bhp/torque figures.

Very pleased 374.5 bhp not bad on supermarket fuel.I will be back for the throttle body upgrade,400 bhp should be achievable.

All that extra power is great isn't it?

Thought you might get a bit more though. Got 370 on my VY ute, but that was just a re-map. Ute is totally stock otherwise. No mods at all to stuff like the exhaust.

Intend to do the exhaust etc at some point, but am hoping/expecting a bigger gain.

If your down this way again, give me shout, only just down the road from Silverstone.

Hi Roger 370 from just a remap sounds amazing, where was it dyno'd if I may ask and what type of dyno was used ? If it was Dyna Pack hub type this will give entirely different outcome to a rolling road !
