Just took an eb xr6 with a 5 speed for a spin. Its got a set of pacies and a 2 1/2 lukey exhaust and a huge k&n pod filter. Just wondering what sort of fly wheel kilowatts that set up would be making roughly. Seriously considering buying the car

they made 161 stock, so I would guess about 170kw at the flywheel - if the exhaust is a good one and it has the 'spaghetti' pacemakers possibly even a little more.

Off topic, but should I remove my fuel pressure regulator when I put my dev 3hl cam in? Should I just replace it with a standard eb 4litre one?

Oh and I would expect that car to have around 120 rwkw, or about 170-175 at the flywheel.
