Was the homogolation rules also the reason that the VL and VN group A's ran twin throttle bodies, i know they use 4 now were they only using twin throttle body setups on the V8's back then?

I understand what your getting at but upgrading an intercooler for a race car imo is not just a performance mod but whats the point of having a car that'll produce power but'll blow up 3 laps into a race.


Group A homogolation rules stated that 500 cars had to be produced before they could race in the series, hence the reason the VL and VN Group A's were so different to the standard Commodores (the standard VL V8 didn't come out with a manual option or with fuel injection). Shit knows how the Seirra's got around this, none were imported into Australia through Ford. There were 100 R32 GTR's imported by Nissan Australia back in 1990 at $100,000 each !!

The XA's ran under Group C rules, I'm not full bottle on them.
