is this realistically gonna last, he hasnt mentioned the engine being opened so presume purely a bolt on kit?

[ringram]

Yeah Roger knows all about it. At 6spi it should be fine, but Im not sure on the dyno number. You would want to see how it drives.
Should be all good and up the boost when you feel like a new bottom end

(Based on stock rating of 396bhp plus (396 times 6/14.5) = 560fwhp @ 6spi, thats if you get all the extra air in and convert to power.)
So unless it has cams or similar the number sounds dodgy.

isn't that one of the two you helped out with ringram? remember they were having problems getting the tunes locked down at the installers and it ended up with half the UK techies getting involved with sorting them out. Fitted by that company that is no longer operating - did a VXR and CV8 at the same time.

[ringram]

Yeah main issue turned out to be a fuel pressure issue even though that was supposed to have been upgraded. I guess its a thirsty beast.
Roger ended up with it to sort out a number of other things. A call to him by anyone interested is probably worth while.

wasnt WRC the company that kept going bust and reforming in one brand or another? Seem to recall a few of the TT 350z owners being a bit burnt

clearly it isnt running 700bhp then on standard bottom end!

[le sarthe]

If that has got a standrard bottom end and churning out those numbers it won't be long before it performs like a bottom end after hard Friday night of 12 pints and a serious vindaloo and keebab.......

[ringram]

Well if its not getting even 50% more in than a normal engine I cant see how it does make that number. Unless of course boost number is wrong.

[TTLS1]

having built a few of these myself...711hp @ 6psi on a standard LS2, no, I don't think so. I know this AVO kit and on standard set-up your looking at 600 odd fwhp @ 8 psi depending on tune, MAX.

[ringram]

Exactly

[TTLS1]

richard, have you still got that LS6 intake?

[ringram]

Nope, another Richard collected it a few days ago with the TB.
Roger has a few spare from SC installs. Id guess Mark at Rapid does too.

[TTLS1]

righto, no probs. I'll contact them, I need one for another little FI project I have on the side.

[anonymous-user]

I have a standard LS1 (VZ/354 hp model) intake and MAF knocking about my garage if anyone is interested? Soon I will also have standard cam, headers, rods, pistons, heads, crank and throttle body.

Holden from VX on ran an LS6 Z06 intake
