CarTorque Series 2 - 1000hp VL Commodore

Two weeks before Powercruise 2015, a customer walked into Anthony Maatouk's workshop with a standard VL Calais. Not only did he deliver a car for Powercruise, but he built what can only be described as a thousand horsepower #ucking animal!

what precision turbo was it? bigger than a 6870? unbelievable build great work.

[@mydogzty]

JUST want to point out the fuse box is still in the engine bay?????? with all that heat would expect it to be rewired into the golvebox

[@obr001]

what ecu & ignition system are you guys running? also what does it rev to?

[@psychotyrone]

1 word. AWESOME!

[@superspark5677]

No point having that much power in the older cars. Gets fuck all traction of street tyres. Only good for the track. In saying that Great job on this one Guys. I can appreciate the hard work and knowledge that would have gone into this. I know where id go if i need a monster engine like this built

[@blumie006]

U sound stupid

[@hvf26]

from the title i thought this was going to be turbo yoda's car

[@shameelali2549]

Stock crank sensor? I find at around 8000+ rpm I get issues with the ecu trying to read it which causes the ignition timing to jump around as the signal gets unstable and is why I put a vrs sensor and a tone wheel on the balancer

[@jtm15m]

Haltech solves all problems

[@RadicalRevs]

is it the ecu that's the issue or the sensor?? Ive seen upgraded sensors but many with stock sensors and standalones...

[@ArtVandelayOfficial]

[@joshg6et98]

[@joshg6et98]

@@ADayInTheLifeOfJames From memory Anthony maatouk did an interview where he talked about doing this build over a very short time frame to get it ready for powercruise and he mentioned the cost.
