Hey crew been gettin alot of advise lately on gains from edits, not entering into a maf v mafless debate , is there any trueth in the statement that a standard VY SS ute can NOT be edited to reach 300 KW?

bone stock it's unlikely to get quite that high (and I'm assuming you mean fwkw) - it'll get pretty close though.
With some intake and exhaust mods + the tune then its almost a given

Yeah im talkin flywheel which i believe closely relates to rear wheel horspower . I have the mods you spoke about IE exhaust , and intake yet still quoted max 250 to 260 rwhp.

368rwhp
and ROUGHLY (many factors come into play (drivetrain losses etc) and you will never know unless its engine dynoed)
368fwkw
If you wanted 300kw at the flywheel (fwkw) you would roughly need 224rwkw (kw at the wheels) which is the same as 300rwhp (hp at the wheels). So basically rwhp = fwkw.

Equates to cam lol
300 fw aint hard with good exhaust, even just 2 hole mod and good tune.
I got over 300 maf tune, full exhaust.

300fwkw is simple really, my ute with full zorst and intake + LS1EDIT tune, made 342rwhp, with roughly means 340ish fwkw.

with cam mine is 381rwhp or 284.9rwkw and thats big for cam only.
342 is a pretty big number for boltons.
Seems mad that a cam, springs, 1.8s etc only made 40hp more
