lumpy Forums Junkie Location: Adelaide, SA Registered: May 2002	Re: XR6 Turbo Wed, 16 July 2003 12:34 Rolla Boy: The new V6 from holden is likely to be the GM engine from the Cadillac CTS - in std trim is a quad cam 3.6Lt with variable valve timing pushing out 190kW at 6,200rpm (6,500rpm limiter!) with max torque of 339Nm at 3,200rpm. Apparently would be easily bored to to 3.8 Lt to net 200kW. It's kind comforting to see the General "get with times" about 15 years too late! I would like to give the Supra a run against the Ford - you can diss it's 6000 rpm redline and family car stylings but at the end of the day it's 4.0L of capacity, with reasonable breathing ability from the twin cam head, and has a sizeable turbo on it - even at 6psi it pushes out 240kW so should be a bit of a contender. However it still has the same block from 1960!. I doubt it is going to last with higher rpm or higher boost..... And as I am fond of saying about both holden and fords - you can put a big v8/turbo 6 in it, you can add a 6sp gearbox, 18inch rims, big exhaust, bodykit and lower it, own t-shirts and caps with it's picture on it, but it'll still just be a falcon [Report message to a moderator]
