Rhys's Holden Commodore VY Executive

"I bought this as a 'gift' to myself when completing my electrical apprenticeship. It was already turbo-converted and making 378hp back in 2015. I soon had it back to the dyno for a touch-up tune on a new stock bottom end and made 421hp 818.8nm @15psi through the factory Getrag gearbox. 11 gearboxes later and an injector failure resulting in a bottom end. I decided to T56 convert it and go the forged route. Made 568hp 1289nm @24psi on a damaged GT3582... I later decided to redo my entire setup from the ground up. It now makes over 700hp with the dyno session cut short due to a turbo failure on my custom 70mm turbo. I have a G42-1450 waiting to go onto and then it will see 1000+ hopefully and a low 9 possibly high 8 second pass. I also have a billet 4.2L stroker & solid roller camshaft combo being made that will see this to over 1300+HP. Not your average mang-mang yet still nothing special by today's standards. End of the day it is still a dirty V6 commodore."

Sam Doney- For assembling & blue printing my bottom end, Nelg's Ali Mods - For the killah intake manifold work, Niche Welding - For all the oustanding fabrication work in the engine bay, JPFab - For the last minute couple ali welds to keep me progressing, Corn Fed Boost - For the killah turbo manifolds, Nathan Kyri From Kyri Race Heads - For the insane camshaft & head work, Justin Pitsikas From BYE Performance - For the killah tune as always & slotting me in between job's, Everyone who helped with advice or steered me in the right direction from the moment I got into the turbo Ecotec scene which led me to where I am now. Finally to my missus Jess, for not raising an eyebrow or a word said for all the money spent at this rebuild & not our new house that still requires a backyard to this date... whoops!
