that is the coolest manifold i have seen on a V6 ever, it puts my custom 1 to shame. LoL.

[silverbulletvs]

Yea deffenatly, ill see what the old boys doing on thursday night for that cruise. have you dynoed your vn? how much hp have you gained from the twin throttle body setup?

Cheers Mike...

350hp out of a V6 :confused: dam thats impressive

got any pics of the car? :) ( or are they there an my computer is playing with me again :rolleyes: )

[silverbulletvs]

Haha your comps screwing with you mate. Theres about 10 photos. Go to my albums its there aswel.

[newsyk06vr2.0]

at power play 1 year it made 147.9 when stone cold,

and another time at another dyno day it made 137 with 333nm of torque, but it had XR6 turbo injectors in it untuned, and the afr's where off the chart. LoL.

when its running right i think it should make about 150 to 160 at the wheels

and all that is done to the car is, twin throlte body manifold, button clutch, 4.11's and a mini spool, stock headers with a 2 and a half inch exshust with twin cat and muffler system.

ahh reached my max download haha :D, 2hr 15min till it refreshes :rolleyes:

V6's are the way I think. There the best bang for buck, and when you put some good pipes on and get a good cold air induction you can really get them going.

Heres a quick vid of the old boy warming up the rear tyres at Oakey Sprints.
