I just bought the latest Zoom magazine, which has an article on a VX Commodore Super Sedan race car with a 595kW (800HP) twin turbo 2.5L Mazda KL V6 in it (the same as what is going in my Baja). Now that is a crazy amount of power. The engine lives at RPM's up to 9,500 for entire races, runs 2.2bar of boost, kicks out 800HP, and uses the standard crank. I think that goes to show how well engineered the engine is standard.

Below are scans from the magazine. I think it has been long enough for the magazine not to care if I post these up here ...

Besides, they have now taken the V6 out of the race car, and have gone to a 6.0L V8 instead. So what happened to the V6 then? Well apparently it has been put into a street car, rumoured to be a Holden Gemini. I will keep you posted...
