In my daily driver VX i have a full 550nm of torque from 2000rpm all they way to about 5500rpm where it tapers off to the limiter at 6500rpm. By the time i mash the loud peddle in my LS1 im allready 3 car lengths ahead before you fast guys come on boost and your still going to be pushing **** up hill to catch me. I love VLT's there insane. Ive had one and im building another. Alot of the guys i cruise with have them but the thing i love to mention most is the fact that anything thats done to a 6 can be done to an 8 with double the HP. Easy.
I agree with complety mate, well said

I don't know how anyone can bag a car or engine like that, yes an RB30 might be good compared to other 6 cylinders, but when an engine like this is next to any 6 its like Mr.Bean vs Vin Diesel.
what the fu#k duz it matter, 6 turbo 8 whatever, it dont matter whats better everyone has there own opinion, and thats good ROFL this site is geting to many people who like to discrimnate! lol v8,6 turbo,non turbo, christ people even have BT1 yellow only cruzes, thats judgeing a vl by the color of its paint! Racist lol we are all on this site cos we love cars,
taht turbo is bigger then my ****en BEDROOM!.. u wont see that ting kick in and start spooling until the last few bare seconds, u cant expect something that *** huge to just go SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSssss and start ****en hisssing away at take off lol itl kick in at its high speeds.. thats a PEACE OF **** BTW!!..(even though i dont even have a V8..will do soon ) i can run faster then taht thing man.. (sarcasm)
peace

i full disagree if a vlt had 250rwkw a vx v8 will need 400 to catch it on the street especially in a v8 and a vx which i have an has 265 rwkw an my younger brothers vlt has only 202rwkw an everytime we go at it hes always infront, dont tell me this torque an whatever vx weighs 400 kilos more than most vlts so there is no chance unless you got big big power or if you have that power in an older commodore like a vl or vk otherwise its very hard.
can anyone full disagree with this?
real men drive *twin turbo* v8's
also. power to weight plays a big game in comparing power figures mate.
imagine a 502 big block in a mini *creams*
and alot of people just drive v8s for the sheer pleasure of a thumping v8 cruizing down the highway... only good noise a vlt makes is a dirty big dose, and even that gets boring after hearing it for a while.
i could listen to a v8 on the limiter in my sleep and id also wear burnt rubber or methanol as a cologne if they stocked it!
peace
