HSV V6 turbo | The LS eater
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 09. 2016
- A long forgotten Holden Special Vehicle, the VT series factory supercharged V6 was good for around 240hp from the factory. George of Pro Flow Fab and Dyno has turned his into one of the quickest V6 street cars in Australia. Ditching the stock Eaton blower in favour of turbo power, George got the V6 into the ten second bracket using the internally stock L67 engine.
Since then the engine has been rebuilt with boost friendly internals and a larger Borg Warner turbo and a custom Holley Hi-Ram intake. The stock IRS rear end is still in place. The XU6 does not hold an appropriate safety ticket however so George was only able to attempt a couple of passes, but impressively the car is quicker than many boosted LS1’s...

Love this car. Our inspiration for Supermang.
More interesting than a Barra these days 👍
I see a lot people commenting about the "horrible" sound ? Lmao. I agree this is not the nicest sounding V6 but not enough to beat to it the ground.
And quite honestly I couldn't hear the dang thing over the hunk of RUBBISH that was heating tires behind it. This thing is pure Stealth.
JIGA BACHI I agree mate. I'm a Ford nut but I'm certainly not biased! a true car enthusiast doesn't hang shit on a car over the badge it wears. I'm happy to see a commodore running quick times with a v6. bit over the LS scene
chill pill who needs an Ls LSX However!
Had a 6 t rather the v8 just got over the fshh vroom vacuum sound went hard but love my ls3. That’s me personally
Better than a Barra

+sea doo Apologies 👍
is possible to import this engine to the US? if so how do they go for?
+Luis Calvillo No need to import, they can be found under the hood of late 90's buicks, one example being the regal gs. oh yeah, also you can find then in late 90's and early 2000's pontiacs, i forget the models.
+Karington Sheppard I'll look into it thanks..
@@ksheppard1234 Pontiac Grand Prix's and Buicks.
so used to seeing this engine in FWD cars like grand prixs and buicks. Wish we got these in the US.
It’s just a 3800. Plenty of them in the us
@nemo hoes in the us they only have front wheel drives but in aid we have rear wheel drive for those sick mang skids.
@@nemohoes1609 He meant the cars
Love the number plate lol and the lag on my BA xr6 Turbo really does suck!
German shepherd Lover Ever heard of Anti lag?
Awesome job
Fast is cool as they say but it still sounds like a mang mang though.
Man I love Australia 🇦🇺
Awesome !!
Chopping those Barras for days
Anyone know if a certificate is required in any state/territory for a supercharger to turbo conversion?
Other lane has already finish his pass and this car is just leaving the line!
Hmm is there anyway to change the exhaust sound :( corn fed boosts one sounded pretty decent
Are you fucking kidding me? i must hae under a rock for too many years. 700+ ponies from a dirty old 3.8 fuck me.
awesome
Hav you guys done a video on this car before? All the v6 turbo commore i have heard sounded poop, but not this one.
he only beefed his commy up to beat other commy drivers to sell some dope bro
Lmfao bruh this needs more likes.
That's the engine that should have come STANDARD equipment on the 1993-2002 Camaro and FireBird. Instead we got the n/a boat anchor version. Ah, good old GM and their wise corporate decisions. BARF.
P.S: Nice car ! 👍
Yea look at what they did to holden
What is the rear end setup ....is it like the 04 Pontiac GTO 5.7 LS1
Shawn Libby yes , exactly the same
just wondering why he doesn't take it to heathcot then he can go as fast as he wants with know parachute because they have nothing to do with andra
Would love to know where to find one of those intake manifolds!
They are custom made by Proflow Fab.
@@fullboost
I will check and see if they are still available. Thanks
2 speed powerglide :W good for drag nothing else
Lucky its a drag car
nice
Here in brazil this car is from chevrolet ...... the name of this car is "Omega", but the engine i don't know if it's the same
It started as an Australian built vehicle, engines however were imported from GM
A few commodores were sent to Brazil and other countries sometimes American built engines were put in
@@willm687 yes, that is what I said
Xenneth Sixx wasn’t talking to you
@@willm687 All g dude, I just realised you explained it better than I did anyway
Why would you ditch the supercharger? an not have it a supercharged turbo car so its good for low and top end power.
The Supercharger would need to turn off at high rpm (which can be done) however its a complicated setup and in this case not really beneficial to the goal at the track etc 👍
killa
3.8 v6 grand pre GXP motor in a rear wheel drive Pontiac G8 well this would be the set up in the U.S only difference is in the U.S we only got front wheel drive 3.8 with supercharger we didnt get the rear wheel drive version ! but that is what it is ! 240hp 270torque
these are just the Pontiac g8 but v6 what use imported from Australia
+Blue Blood that's what I told a friend at work today cause his a g8 fan lol
+TJ McDonald amazing how many don't know that and I'm a ford man lol but I do love any fast car
Blue Blood agreed
Haha my mate has that plate in SA.
What a beast, I used to own a XU6 they're quick standard but now I drive a rexy STI for the turbo 4wd my13 they're just a bit better but that turboed XU6 would smash my STI all day long.. Grrr... Still love XU6 more than V8s!!!
Both crap compared to a v8 😁
Really wish they would import Holden's to the US.
the Pontiac g8 and gto is a Holden mate and the newest one is the Chevrolet ss

Yeah I know but Australia has more options than we do for affordable performance RWD sedan type cars. They discontinued Pontiacs and I suspect theylle do the same with the SS. I'm a V8 guy but I'd like to see these V6 cars here too. Like this one and the Ford XR6. Personally I'd love to have a Ute. Outside of muscle cars all our sedans are pussy.
+FP5Reviews
Yeah but you have these cars you can get and do this with. We don't. Literally every car that's not a Camaro, Mustang, or sports car is some fwd junk with a V6 that isn't even a V6 you can build. Aside from maybe the AWD Taurus. Every sedan after the 90s is fwd garbage. We don't have the falcon, the el camino (Ute), they won't even give us the Caprice. The sedans that did have potential like the LS1 Monte Carlo and Impala SS were neutered with fwd. Atleast you have some proper cars
The duratecs out of the Taurus in the US are really decent V6s. Swap it into a fox body and spend 25 grand on it and it should be quick as fuck dude.
kinda looks like a catera… which was a rebadged opel.
The cars you are referring to started their life as commodores, other country's took our cars, rebadged them then sold them as something else, a good comparison to see is the Holden Commodore VF Series II SS and the Chevy SS, compare them both, the VFII's as we call them were the last Australian made commodores, America got a few, rebadged them and called them the Chevy SS
considering the l67 is basically an ls with two cylinders chopped off, it doesn't really surprise me that its faster, cool to see it was sold in australia tho
l67 is not an ls with two cylinders chopped off. its an old design by buick. its basically a buick 215 v8 with two cylinders chopped off. its a revamped engine that was in the buick gn.
vulgo Omega Australiano
8 second potential in this car, the weakest link in the l67 is the supercharger
did you not watch it?
+Scrotal Agenda yes
Its not supercharged, this ones turbo'd.
+Scrotal Agenda I am aware thanks...
Your comment confused me, weird way to word it haha. Thought you meant this was a super six still
they sound as shit as a barra,but these v6s are starting to belt the barra,funny stuff
There’s a reason the xu6 was forgotten, Holden and it’s fans wanted to forget the time their performance 6 cylinder had trouble shaking fords base model family sedan. Props to the owner of this though, maybe Holden wishes they choose this route too.
They dumbed down the supercharged 6, they go well done up, even with a basic $250 pulley upgrade they go alot better, chuck the intercooler and smaller pulley on with a tune and they really go
Scott Dineen Blame Holden for being V8 only fanboys. If they stuck with the RB30 after the VL, the Barra would have had to step up there game but what do you expect from a company that has been sucking on GMs cock for years only to get shafted anyway. Pretty sad for both cars though.
Hi
Ls eater in your dreams 😅
V6 Commodores sound good don't know why people think thay sound bad
People who hate the sound of a V6 Commodore but listen and comment on every V6 Commodore love to bitch because secretly they are fans. ...roflmao!
They dont sound great, especially the l67, they sound shit, ecotecs can sound ok but the l67 sounds like ass
still sounds better than a barra, that is the worst 6 cylinder noise ever made.
now run 33psi through a built LS won't be such an LS eater then lol, this thing also sounds terrible
Certainly does sound awful. Like an n/a commo 6 with a big exhaust
j may aswell just be quiet lol
the ls will explode long before the 3.8 does.
It's just a matter of getting the compression ratio low enough in the LS1 engine to run a higher amount of boost then it would certainly be able to generate more power & beat the V6 engine,I wouldn't go as far as this but I totally bypassed buying a Commodore with the 90° V6 engine which I think is a horrible engine & is very hard to balance even when GM fitted a balance shaft into the engine - I'm a Holden who hates them & it's any wonder why GM went to a 60° Alloytec V6 engine which is much easier to balance.
I bought an LS1 powered Commodore to replace my RB30DE (twin cam) VL Commodore so I much rather the Nissan & Chev LS engines over the rotten old Buick engine any day,while my LS1 only has the stock L76 V8's power (276 KW from the LS1) Holden may not bother trying to flog off a lame offering of 235 KWs from the latest ZB Commodore which only runs a V6 engine.
How's this 1200+ HP effort from a single cam RB30 engine :- czcams.com/video/ieVDfnUKN9s/video.html
Sounds like a Cummins lmao
This was the best model that was sold extremely well. Then came the new models, bulky, fat-assed and unappealing, spelling the end of GMH in Australia. Think about it, the latest station wagon after this great Holden, nothing appealing, nothing attractive, just a fat box with an ass the size of a Hippo and smaller rear windows compared to the lovely station wagon of this model above. And... GMH is gone, a company started in Adelaide by a determined man with a vision, James Alexander Holden, is no longer around. And, despite the company leaving the country that cherished Holden fans and buyers, people still buy them imported, sending money overseas and no jobs in Australia. That's what I call Australian intelligence, buying Holdens from overseas and sending their hard earned dollars overseas instead of the opposite, to make cars locally where here are jobs and prosperity. But no, we have nothing for jobs just work in Chinese warehouse across the country if you think that's appropriate. What about skills? You don't become skilled working in warehouse. To be a skilled worker, you need to work in foundries, lathes, fitter and Turner, on machines, glass bottle maker, etc. That's what you call skills, not just manual labour in warehouses with a forklift, shifting and loading pallet loads of Chinese junk. Today (Fri 8-2019) I bought two Bonds T-shirts, the very shirts that were made in Australia in the 60's to 90' are now made in China. And no wonder there are no jobs and my money is on the way to China with a bit gone to the Governments coffers as GST. Look at the state we are today a country in turmoil, full of multinationals that know nothing about Australian way of life. They're only here to breed like rabbits, they don't even care about our culture anyway.
Umm... Many "multinationals" bought Australian cars so what's your point here?
And still sounds like shitty series one VN... lmao
Don't u mean. Barra eater
fastest barra has run 6.8 quarter mile. it's got some catching up to do
Barra eater? Not a chance bud, late model F6 Barra's can make that power (550rwkw) on a stock bottom end, let alone fully built, which some Barra's run well over 1500hp.
Juble Tyre ummm yeh....no mate. never if that was the case the V6s would be up there with the barras years ago but they still are nowhere to be found so that's evendice enough right there that the Holden v6 isn't even on the same page
haha look at the ford fans coming out of the woodwork cause a dirty old holden V6 can chop barra's
as sd that's one of the funniest things I've read on CZcams! either your after a bite or your as dumb as dog shit. I say the last one.
lmao
Geez , if you had that big turbo on a Barra , 9's all the way ! Damn that V6 sounds like shit tho !
Too bad it's the worst sounding engine ever made, sounds like someone farting into a milo can
hahaha yes
same design as a V8 LS, no wonder it sounds like shit
Lol it's true but quick af
Lol there making 8.9s 1/4 miles tho 😂
@@nos4me your comment is lacking lntelligense😁
Its got a supercharger and a turbo, shit , der of cause it's going to be faster than a LS1, no comparison!!
Stephen Ashby It doesnt have a supercharger. And yes its quicker than most turbocharged street LS1 Commodores we see at the drags 😊
Stephen A it's not a *supercharger* it's a custom *holly high ram intake manifold*
No,no it does not,look at engine bay...
Why Australians always call fast car a quick car !!! Cars go fast my friend not quick!!...hahaha..thanks
Why can't American's speak properly?What the flying fuck is ALOONAMIN? Why can't use say Aluminium?
@@larndelaney7848 I'll pay this on "nuclear" because there are many people from the US who say "nucular" but the original spelling (and pronunciation) of Aluminium is "Aluminum", it was changed later to bring it into line with other "ium" elements.
You are funny comparing that junk to an ls 🤣 😂
Rice
It would be easy enough to beat that with any ls it's just a crap v6🤭
