VVEL Cracking?

antivirus6613 · 03-29-2011, 10:04 PM

A little new to the tuning aspect of things but everyone keeps mentioning how the Z will be able to get a lot more power once someone cracks VVEL. Can anyone explain this?

Is it along the lines of cracking the timing so it can be changed?

RCZ · 03-29-2011, 10:07 PM

yes. Its electronically adjusting timing to make the most power at every RPM.

Isn't it adjustable lift? Does it also have the ability to vary valve timing?

I predict that once VVEL is cracked all the guys who traded there Z's for 5.0 Stangs will trade back.

LOL

GTM is working on it.

I'm guessing at least another 10-15 whp is hiding in VVEL tuning...

So if and when they crack the VVEL. How will the program be offered? Will it be offered as a reflash or can the program be run through Uprev? Seems the VVEL would have to be more of a personal tune if anything. Not sure. What do you guys think?

ZR1 maybe.

Realistically, after full bolt ons and tune, how much could VVEL add?

Fezzik · 03-30-2011, 11:42 AM

I'm guessing F/I applications will get about a 50hp gain.

Well what does a 5.0 put down? Times that by 9 and you will have the hp for a fully bolted Z + VVEL tune
