Supercharging an SV6 Commodore | fullBOOST
#fullBOOST #HoldenCommodore #Supercharged - Авто та транспорт
do literally everyone commenting asking about the mask, i had a bad accident at work prior to this video and as a result am having to have dental reconstruction at the time of this video i was 3 days out of my first stage of surgery and wasn't even supposed to be out and about but i made the effort to be there so for the sake of being on video i covered up my cut up and sliced face. as for only making 270 when it made close to 300 and 327 prior, after this video my tuner invited me back to his shop and we found few small things wrong with the car that we have buttoned up and fixed both mechanical and in the tune, full video is on my channel of the results for anyone who is genuinely interested.
Thanks for coming down and showing us your car mate 👍
@@fullboost Thanks for the invite, was great to meet the team after watching your content for so many years :)
Thanks for coming in again :) to be clear we replaced your plugs with 1 step colder plugs, and fixed up a loose MAF sensor connection that was causing surging on the night. Power is back to what it should be, we did put it back on the dyno for a further touchup. But still our favourite V6!!
@@fullboost Thanks for the shirt guys :)
@@Xrp_will_hit_320_dollars because i was 3 days out of my first stage of surgery at the time this video was recorded as stated above, not only for the fact of being on camera but also to have some minor form of protection from bacteria and infection as my wounds were still healing
This was shown on my Channel about 6months ago! Awesome SV6 honestly 👏
was a great day chilling out with you thanks again ross for inviting me down to film your review i had a blast :) if you're interested since this video was filmed my tuner was a tad worried so he invited me to his shop on his day off so we could button some things up and get it up on the dyno to fix afew small problems, if you're interested i have a video of that day on my channel
How much hp?
Good to see it finally on fullboost
270 @ the rears isn't bad for V6 commo, chuck the stock wheels back on for sleeper mode and you'd surprise a lot of people
Very clean build!
I love the genuine transformation from daily, to modded, to more mods!
And from a self confessed non car guy!
Good on him, and from a guy who admits he doesn't have the money! 👍👍
That's something different. Thanks guys.
A really nice tidy car, and something different from the usual Barra or LS build. Great job!
Just when Holden made a decent Commodore they packed up the company. I had one of these as a hire car in NZ. I was surprised how quickly it got to 220kph although I did have a Euro built Commodore 4 cylinder turbo up near 240 on the speedo. NZ, great place with great roads!
Bro our roads up north are falling apart
@@Jake_Hamlin I hear ya Jake. South Island roads are pretty good. You guys just got smashed by crazy storms over there, the roads would be trashed.
When I was driving in NZ the locals were all helpfully holding sheep from behind to stop them running onto the road.
If it's euro built it's not a fucking commodore mate, also there were plenty of nice commodores before the vf, I love my LS ve calais
@@dionborbelj9853 If it says it's a Commodore- it's Commodore. VE's were nearly nice. A Euro Commodore 4 cylinder would be so close to your car you'd be in a tizzy. The dash rattle of the poorly built 4 banger turbo coming past giving you wind burn would be intimidating. I'm glad you love your car though, that is all that matters.
This was on Ross reviews.. Great idea... good to see something different,
I bet if he made it more of a sleeper it would, make a few people cry at the lights.
Nice car . I like the effort you put in her, just curious but is it possible to put the front callipers on the rear?
I would like to do that to my vf.
Thank you .
Nice to see an SV6 that would actually move along quite nicely. The wheels definitely aren't my cup of tea though. Stock would look nicer (and nice and sleeperish imo.)
I'd love to see #Harrop do a kit of the Alloytec!
Cool Commy!
Hahahah thats sick. Love it.
Barra it
Hahaha it’s like if Holden did hot4s magazine
I remember that mag.
really need to see a twin turbo SV6 that is built up on the channel
Wow does sound like it’s going to snowball
Nice car making quite a bit of power... Not a fan of some of the cosmetic enhancements but overall, it's a good car...
Super clean and practical daily drier and the power looks good! It’s on par with a tuned ss and the average xr6t but still got nothing on my Ecotec lol
Still waiting on the boost to hit in the ecotec
pretty good considering back in the day a 350 chev made 275.
Credit to the owner for doing something different....with some better gears will definitely liven up the car....when you get all the work you want to get done...im sure it will be a beast...see you on the road
I like it something different 🍻2 u bud.
Done well !! It's a shame they didnt use the 3.8 bottom end and bolt the eco head's on would have stout
Looks like the car isn't the only thing BOOSTED Hard....
,,.bro wot
@Mac2000 I'm not referring to Forced Induction, I'm referring to a Forced Miracle Elixir. 👍 U get me, comrade...
@@shannan1561 not sure why u thinking about that. Odd
@Mac2000 No worries there champion
@Shannan thanks chief
Modern mang 👍
I'd be pretty happy with 260-270kW atw in a daily. Probably good for 0-100 in the mid 5's, it would surprise a lot of the typical traffic light heroes that see an SV6 or Falcon and immediately try to race it off the lights.
Kickdown 40kmh
Much faster than mid 5 seconds im sure, the power and torque this makes easily puts it under the 5
Edelbrock make a top mount supercharger kit for the 3.6 LFX. Not cheap though.
looks like bad Jeep Wrangler wheels from Frankston
Nice boat
And that boat would piss on anything you’ve likely got on track and it’s a v6 family car! A commondork or bombadore all the same but you should give it credit because it’s probably better than yours!
Is thst the same v6 block we had in the uk Omega?
Good old Revhigh managed to blow up my Rs3 Engine sticking to what he knows

When is the next dyno night and where do you advertise them? I don't have Facebook but do follow you guy's on instagram but very rarely go on there.
I have a stock (for now) ZL1 Camaro and wouldn't mind seeing what it makes before I install a flex fuel kit, full exhaust and pulley change
@@davidt3196 We need to find a new shop as that dyno was sold and left the building the day after the last dyno night.
@@fullboost spewing and thanks for the reply. When you do find another venue where do you advertise for the event?
@@davidt3196 It's always on our group page

Is he wearing a mask coz he is embarrassed that he has a v6 commo
He supposedly had an accident at work and was covering up his wounds...
Bruh
😀
What’s with the cold air intake on his face
what's with the room temp IQ?
Looks like he does every last thing his misso tells him to do
Dumb cunts = masks
@@diaspo Mask does nothing mate.. especially not those cloth ebay ones from China.. No transmission outside either
@@WHDRWN Not possible. Can't be married and also blown.
Mangarific
By the time you had all of this work done, it'd be same cost & more satisfying converting to an LS......which, when you've done all of the work you'd have to be scratching your head as to why you didn't. Oh well.....
Where can you buy those tail lights
he realised what he has 😂😂😂 putting front brakes on the rear 😂😂😂
Is upgrading your car funny mate?
@@dpgemail no but this SV6 guy is funny as
V6's aren't worth playing with. He's got like $10k into the performance and it's making less than a 6.0L with basic intake/exhaust/tune package. But whatever, if he enjoys it then good for him.
Yeah, but what would a V8 VF cost?
@Gerald5000 well back in 2017 they would been like $5k-$10k more
Pretty sure 6.0ls only make around 220kw atw stock, and when you add the exhaust inatake package it doesnt really make them that much more, plus this is still a v6, even the 6 cylinder r34 gtrs only made like 230kw atw and they were twin turbo, you cant really make above 300kw on a v6 unless you do absolutely everything, this is literally stock engine plus a charger, thats it
@Phatv6 6.0L's make high 200s with those basic mods. You're aware the Japanese sports cars of the 90s had a gentlemen's agreement that essentially made all the cars limited in power right? Plus the RB26DETT is more than 20 years older than the VF's V6. Better to compare the 370z to this and afaik those make even more power (like over 350rwkw) stock engine with a charger.
@@vongdong10 not sure what 6.0l you see but most stock 6.0l make around 220 wheel, stock and with basic bolt ons push it up to maybe 250 if lucky, speaking from experience my dads vf ss with otr exhaust and tune only made that on dyno, unopened engine 6.0ls dont make alot, so yea a v6 with just a charger making 300 is impressive, if this guy did headwork, cams and maybe some more hed be pushing over that, chuck it on e85 and hed be easily 350, add on a cpr6 manifold and that can easily be in the high 300s,
Be honest with you, with that amount of work planned I'd just get rid of this car and buy one that had an LS.
Pink racing pedals give it an extra 20kw easy.
And face mask make it less resistant to wind 😂
I swear he said it was making 300kw?
At least he's honest unlike the glorified plastic mang raptor owners lol
Thetimimg chained weren't the problem. And even in VF's they are still a failing. Don't let anyone fool you.
The problem is with crankcase breathing. In particular, the driver side cylinder head. If you pull a sensor from that side or a rocker cover, after 150,000km you will see a bit of carbon crusting on that side. This eventually leads to poor oil feed and that kills the chain.
Even a well maintained one will still have this issue. Is it as bad as a tfso vw? Absolutely not. But it's still not cheap to fix
Do you wear the mask while you are driving as well?
Sv6 with charger Sounds bad but goes ok 🤣
SS with charger sounds good goes great 😀
As with every Alloytec/ecotec owner, the mask comes off when the shift starts at the Glory hole.
As an alloytec owner, I can confirm this is true
I was trying to think of something funny to say about the mask but you win sir 😂
Lol
Come for the comments 💀💀💀
Go 3.9s old man went 3.7s in his wm caprice l98 and wishes he went 3.9s
I've experienced the 2.92 3.45 and 3.7 and I'd go that little bit extra
"still sounds like a fart" 😂
i'd be lying if i said anything else
Who had COVID? You or him?.
Oh I've heard bad things by Rev Highs workmanship by couple of people. I hope this bloke didn't get played. Nice to see boosted alloytech's.
Is that 270KW/362HP at the wheels?
Yes
Doesn’t sound that bad though I’ve heard worst coming from a V6. Would have been cool to see the dyno graph it being a centrifugal blower, it just keeps pulling all the way to redline without any dips in the power band which isn’t a bad thing at all.
theres a full video on my channel we recorded after this dyno night to fix a few things up, got some dyno pulls in with graphs and my tuner also talks about all the technical stuff youd want to know about the tune etc if you're interested
Hey mang.. get this in the Americars?
it is the lfx engine pretty sure you can find it in your v6 camaros however im unsure of what gen camaro ran with the lfx
@OSRS OUTDOORS I'll check thank-you
worst wheels in the world there a meme now in aus id wear a mask if i ran those wheels as well
👍
At least he knows he drives a fart, but apart from that tidy job
I am waiting to see billet head manufacturers start making LFX heads with extractor compatible exhaust ports
Won't be too long now
I wouldn't hold your breath!
@@sexyfacenation why not they already do it for ecotecs, buicks just takes time to develop a head
Took over 10years of testing to get an ecotec/l67 head that didn't cause issues with other components
@@ESISTTIGER holding your breath for 10 yrs would be fatal mate
There’s easier ways to tell your parents you like your sister…
isn't that a pro charger ?
It's a Vortech. The blower is reversed unlike all the kits Capa made back pre 2000-2010.
You can also clearly see the V on the blue tag (that's upsidedown).
Interesting it only made 270kw with boost. Must be a lot of heat in the cyli ders causing knock. I say this because I extracted 255kw from the vf on e85 on the hub dyno. Real hard ecu to tune compared to earlier generations.
he said stock, they would make around 160 or so, now with 7psi, its making another 100 so it seems right.
I recently tuned the 3.6lsx. It came in with 210kw at the wheels. Left with 255kw on e85. I recently checked the dynos were still calibrated correctly. I use no software offsets and dyno hub losses are included in the readings
The VF is rated at 210kw at the engine.
This car is on pump fuel. On his tuners' dyno it makes 310kw. This is why you shouldn't compare dyno figures too much.
@@fullboost not to say I wasn't impressed when I saw those numbers! I trust the dyno. Perhaps the car was tuned previously and the owner wasn't aware.
Haha Melbourne roads 🤣 bro ever driven in SYDNEY or anywhere in NSW haha Melbournes roads are what us NSW LADS dream of mate
It feels like the owner doesn't know as much about cars as he thinks. The fact he told you Holden quotes power at the crank and not at the wheels is a warning sign.
He'd be right
@@toneloc9084 Yes, and we all know that. It's like telling a surgeon he needs to administer a general anesthetic before he cuts someone open.
He said he knows nothing about cars.
The guy is getting the bug...
Doing more mods. Give him a break.
Don't assume everyone knows that though
Does any car maker quote wheel hp?
Still sounds better than an LS
Still sounds better than a barra
@@CurtisLSA 💯
@@piffiiiiiiit everything sounds better than a barra 😄😁
Why is he wearing a face nappy..?
I think it's something to do with his religion
Face nappy lol doing that to that Holden he ain't smart
just to wind you up, just like his supercharged timing chain
😂
to trigger cookers
I have that beat ve series 1 sv6 ly7 324kw
The mask 😂 someone tell him
What the fuck's he talking about, "integrated manifolds"? Every Alloytech head I've ever seen had regular exhaust ports, and you CAN fit headers to them.
He means the exhaust manifold is a part of the head. So instead of 3 outlets on each head, there is only 1. The LFX engines from the MY11 (i believe) to the last SV6's have integrated exhaust manifolds.
Chris...you're obviously not on the tools.....😛
LFX/LGX (series 2 VE+) have a single port for the exhaust cast into the cylinder head.
Haha LOL 🤣
oh dear 😂
Maybe the owner needs another mask, clearly suffering major long COVID on this one!
What's with the mouth moffler 😂
What wtf the go with common sense ain't common lol
Full boost content is always killer but 20 sec in seeing that Made me stop watching it 🤦♂️
😂 absolute nonce still scared of a cold!! Puppet
Nice build mate. Love how much you triggered the cookers haha. They really hate personal freedom lol
Knows nothing about the lfx, chains don’t go. The only time u replace them is when u cam it.
Thats a sidi not an alloytech 🤦♂️
They're pretty similar...
3.4 or you’ll hate your life.
Why's he wearing a car bra on his face?
Dr. Fauci would love this episode, It contains signs of aids and covid.
😂😂😂😂😂🎉
Dudes still wearing a mask 🤦
Commodore drivers 🤣
Soft as sh!t
Why is this guy wearing a mask?
Sorry I won't watch videos with people wearing slave muzzles.
Been fun.
Cheers
Lol, toughen up mate.
The bloke had a work accident and messed up his mouth, he was waiting for surgery.
@@fullboostthe view isn't worth the argument. some people are just stupid
That's OK mate, no one cares, bye Felicia
Who tf is still wearing a mask
My 23 year old audi 4 cylinder came with more power than that thing did. 🤣
And ?
@@CurtisLSA I thought it would have more power than that.
@@CliffB5A4 Wont get hundreds of Kws like 500 + from a V6 commodore.
Think many i.e. the barra lovers need to realise this V6 commodore was never targeted as a high performance engine and has always been designed as a family car market more so.
Holden will always tell you if you want performance go buy the V8 version
@@CurtisLSA yeah I get that, I've owned vc vl vn vs and they weren't all that fast just made heaps of noise. The vs was ss commodore and felt different down low with the torque but at high revs felt similar to the six. I gave up on Holden's a long time ago because they break too easy and started driving jap cars and now I'll only drive audi.
@@CliffB5A4 i guess all car makes and models have their issues
Ive had VWs for work cars and the clutches go on them after 100,000 kms
Lame
Maskalicious Mang Man🤣‼️
I should Mask him a question...🤣🤣🤣
@@AndrewMitchell001 legit these comments are classic💪
Hey mate can I borrow your MASKing tape...😜😜😜
Bloke is a weirdo. Wastes money on an SV6 and is still afraid of Covid. Goes hand in hand I guess
