AU Output

NV_D_XG · 19-02-2008, 08:18 AM

Could someone please tell me what the AU XR6 02' model puts out at the engine and at the wheels?

And to use as a bit of pub ammo....would it beat a 98' Manual Holden VT?

Homes · 19-02-2008, 08:25 AM

why don't you just google it yourself

NV_D_XG · 19-02-2008, 08:33 AM

Tried, to much random crap came up and i couldnt get my "specific" answer...ontop of that i can only find engine power and not at the wheels. thank you very much!

**Stav** · 19-02-2008, 12:48 PM

You'd get 95 to 120 rwkws roughly.

sorry, just seems like a silly question to me...gotta take longer to wait for a reply here than it would googling the figures - VT & AU sixes are gonna be similar enough anyway

NV_D_XG · 19-02-2008, 01:24 PM

No one willing to be more specific ?

HLC · 19-02-2008, 02:16 PM

157kW at the flywheel.

My car with just exhaust. put out 124.8 rwkw.

so expect somewhere around 105-115 rwkw stock.

Dark Horse · 19-02-2008, 03:55 PM

164 kW @ 5000 rpm and 366Nm at 3150 rpm

Or for a VCT

172 kW @ 5000 and 374 Nm at 3500 rpm.

VT V6 puts out 152 kW and 320 Nm.

Performance in a straight line, the AUIII XR6's were a lot closer to the XU6's than the Commodore 'S'.

Into the twisties, you should have the satisfaction that the VT will disappear from your rear view mirror entirely....

NV_D_XG · 19-02-2008, 03:59 PM

Ive made the right choice of ute then

cant wait to get it, definitly go the VCT. My mate with a VT will be shattered. CLOSED.

MGM · 19-02-2008, 05:03 PM

my ute dyno'd at 137 with redback 2.5" and k&n panel that was full of mud then 139 with k&n pod

stiddy · 19-02-2008, 08:22 PM

lol 'Definately get the VCT' why because its got 8kW more than the HP... pfft.

It would be if they fitted IRS to utes...

Nope, i want to stick with ford, as i just wrote off my XG ute, and i since im upgrading i was just curious about the added benifit of it being able to beat a VT. I know barely anything about he AU series as ive always been XF-XG orientated.

As if i'd buy a civic...sheeesh...i'd rather beat him in style.

T-Pak Addict · 20-02-2008, 01:23 AM

Stock AU I6 Forte on LPG 98.4rwkw dunno about on petrol but would be at a guess about 105rwkw

how long is a piece of string

as said above u will get results between 90 to 120kw at the wheels, depending on the day, tyrepressures, humidity, dyno, etc etc etc

the good old argument of how much is much ....

ST · 20-02-2008, 03:55 AM

The XR will win all day every day. As will a standard au i6, not even in the same league.

groops · 20-02-2008, 09:40 AM

With Paccies, hi-flo cat and cat back lukey system I was outputting 118rwkw. Haltech with tune got me to 141rwkw. Apparently my stock rwkw was higher than normal by about 10% so I'd say about 105-110 rwkw as standard. I have a mate with a VX S and I used to pull away from him in my sedan...with Haltech I keep up with my mates vx Monaro. and leave mates VX S for dead.

NV_D_XG · 20-02-2008, 11:22 AM

thanks guys!

sikford · 20-02-2008, 01:49 PM

i dynoed my fairmont with nothing but a 2.5" cat back with 1 muffler and a hotdog and pulled 135.6, then changed the exhaust to give it more of a note and some more back pressure being an auto and it still made 134rwkw. It's VCT but still a good result.you'll cain commodores ***'s all day man. too easy, my mate disappears behind me all the time in his V6, bahahaha.

stiddy · 20-02-2008, 08:18 PM

An AU XR6 is better compared to the V6 supercharged version. Then they are line ball with eachother.
Even a tricked up V6 '7/11 special' ecotech with mods will struggle to hold its own against a stock XR6.

You're too right stiddy, the VCT was designed to compete with HSV's XU6 (blown V6), and it still thumps out more torque than HSV's offering (fwkw are dead even). perhaps that's why it didnt stick around for very long

NV_D_XG · 21-02-2008, 08:10 AM

Im pretty sure the ute has the VCT...

My mate thinks his VT puts out 140 kw at the wheels just because of the lukey cat back. I laughed. Alot.

Well after a complete exhaust system, intake and flash tune with new cam i should be rolling pretty well.
