That’s crazy power. The FG F6s couldn’t put it down with 310 kw. $700 tune and you have 310kw at the wheels. Most would be more than happy with that power output on these… but you do get used to it and then you need more…

Even 500kw is scary for somebody who isn't used to lots of power (including me lol)... I wonder if anybody has done an AWD Barra Falcon? There is a build on KZfaq and that seems to grip really well, but I'm surprised more people don't do this (but there's also the Territory)... Great video 👍

500rwkw with the stock ZF is impressive. My one started melting down at 400rwkw. It can also do with the amount of torque tuned into it too. It'd always slip from second to third, When I put it on e-85 at 460rwkw it said goodbye in a spectacular way lol. Maybe I got the one built on a friday arvo.

A stock ZF should be able to handle up to 850Nm; thats the word from one of the best Ford tuners in Oz. They start having problems from that point espec with sticky rubber. Does depend on how hard you are on it.

@haydnpaull5447 10 ай бұрын

Doing a barra build at the moment after roll racing many falcons at my local track. The car I raced against them was small and light 4cyl with 265kW and it would keep up with 500kW Falcons no problems. When I raced Falcon with, say 900hp, my car would initially gap them until I was reeled in 100 metres later. It's from this experience I decided to build a 500kW barra motor for its superior response but put it into a much lighter vehicle. 1250kg to be exact. This should offer the best of both worlds.

@olik9388 10 ай бұрын

Madness! It would be even better if you can put it in the back of the car to get weight over the rear wheels. The G8 series WRX would be closer to the 1250kg. I had a type RA that was factory set up for group B rally that was even lighter than that. The Falcon chassis are also not the best, so it will be interesting to see how the engine performs in something else.

@dalejustins7117 10 ай бұрын

Traction will be the biggest factor at that horsepower point, suspension and tyre setup will be important else once traction is lost, all those killerwasps go straight to the atmosphere. I’ve seen dumped into the weeds and tuned barras on cheap tyres pull slower times down the quarter than they were at factory power and factory suspension height/tyres, because no room to squat on the line. In gear acceleration on these things is insane though. 🎉
