pretty sure they came out with 260 kw which is the same as 260 rwhp or 190 ish rwkw

[steve1977]

not shaw about clubby but ss make about 180rwkws

[QldKev]

Depends which model

VTII - 250kw
VX - 255kw
VY - 260kw
VYII - 285kw

The rear wheel HP, as a rough guide is roughly the same as the flywheel KW.

Way way way too many variables.

On a VY my guess 190 to 210rwkw???

My VZ SS Auto 5.7ltr 2005

APS Mainline Dyno - 188RWKW - 252.1RWHP with just twin 2 1/2 catback

Now - HM Headers 4 into 1's, 3" Outlaw Cats, CAI and Mafless with Xforce Catback

APS Mainline Dyno - 242.5RWKW - 325.3RWHP

That sums up the answer pretty right! :goodjob:

My Series 1 VY R8 Clubbie M6 218 rwkw before mafless tune.

My VY Series 1 Clubby was 202rwkw standard.

Agree as a good approximation, but for those who prefer power readings in kw then to convert 1kw = 3/4hp.

VTII - 250kw at flywheel so 250rwhp = 187.5rwkw
VX - 255kw at flywheel so 255rwhp = 191.25rwkw
VY - 260kw at flywheel so 260rwhp = 195rwkw
VYII - 285kw at flywheel so 285rwhp = 210rwkw

My clubby made 250rwhp on the dyno it's a auto not happy

You're not happy with that result? Sounds about right to me.

Given variations in dynos I agree with wikky. That's about on the money for a 260fwkw car, especially given the autos suck more power than manuals.

Manuals usually make a little more as they suffer less drivetrain loss

However, as previously mentioned

Flywheel kW approx. = Rear wheel hp

So given the fact you made 250rwhp (Flywheel approx. 250kW) I'd say it's on the money

Future reference, 1kW = 1.34hp

Having said that, my VY II SS M6 with an otrcai (MAF, no tune) and cat back exhaust only made 171rwkw (Flywheel approx. 230kW?) Go figure

Cheers,

Dynos are a tuning tool. Not point in comparing them, unless every car is run on the same dyno on the same day. And even then, there can be big differences.

[kRaZeD]

My stock vy auto (stock cat back too!!) Made 187 kw at the wheels on chevs dyno.

Absolutely true :)

[5.7wld]

Yer kRaZeD like i said mine only made 184.4rwkw and i have cat back twin 2 1/2 inch exhaust dumped at the diff.
