Hey,
just wondering... what was the difference in power between stock au falcon motor output and au xr6 output. what was done to the motor to give it that extra bit, eg mods. cheers blair |

depends if the VCT donk or not. the normal one is different cam, ecu, higher fuel pressure reg, larger exhaust valves, higher ratio diff.

AU XR6 have VCT engine, standard falcon doesnt
falcon - 157Kw XR6 - 164Kw

Standard AU and XR's have the same sized valves
and not all had VCT (very few did IIRC)

nope, the HP was not a standard AU engine
standard au = 157kw XR6 HP = 164kw (different cam, retuned ECU, 300kpa fuel pressure, and I think it still got a bit of headwork) XR6 VCT = 172kw and had VCT

It's a kick a** motor and is noticeably better than a stocker. Revs a lot better and harder too. Either way: Falcon = 157kw Falcon XR6 HP = 164kw Falcon XR6 VCT = 172kw |

All au 6's got 41mm exhaust valves, which also have thinner valve stems compared to e-series

I know they have thinner valve stems compared to e-series, but I didn't know that a stock AU motor had 41mm exhast valves...You sure?

I know they have thinner valve stems compared to e-series, but I didn't know that a stock AU motor had 41mm exhast valves...You sure? sure am. And the compression for au's was also 9.6:1 on all 6's
