lol awesome. its funny they thought a car that does 15.9 stock like a JA would get beaten by a high 16 sec car like a dirty auto VS V6. i mean 5.0 VS auto's didnt even do 15.9's!

For a commodore forum, I didn't think their info was too bad, despite being a little mismatched.
We also had the euro version 2L with 132 kw and I believe 147kw in the Dash engine!!!!

Stock JA with mild cam???? Probably also with stock vr4 pistons and high flowed turbo ...but we wont tell them that!

Also, I don't think many VS 5L V8's would beat V6's in standard form, despite being rough and unrefined engines.
