200 bhp ish standard 3.0 v6, plus some tuning plus a shit load of nos would see 375.

It'll feel like 375bhp to the 17yr old who'll be buying it though.
it will still be seriously quick, even if that's only a 50 shot of nos.

Question sent
quote:
Hi there, I'm interested in how this engine produces 375 BHP when in standard form they are 200-ish, does it have a 175 BHP shot of nitrous oxide? By the way NOS is a brand name just like nitrous express, stop watching the fast and the furious.

The reply I got
quote:
its a vauhall omega 3L v6 engine which is tuned up to 375 bhp
My reply, I've got a feeling this could go on for some time
quote:
But in standard form these engines are around 200 BHP, what tuning has been done to take it to 375? I love Nova's and V6 engines but I'm not willing to bid on it when you don't even know what's been done to the engine, 175 BHP is quite a jump in power!

Yes.
No. When are people going to realise that this kind of shit is bollocks anyway let alone adding 99.9% bullshit to the auction. Joker.
