At Revhigh Performance Tuning, we love seeing a properly built LS V8 come together. Mick’s 6.0L V8 came in with a fresh rebuild, an LS9 camshaft upgrade and a selection of performance supporting modifications to help it make serious power. With a set of REVHIGH heat-shielded headers and a VCM OTR intake completing the setup, this combination delivered an impressive result on the dyno. Performance Upgrades Mick’s 6.0L V8 features the following modifications: 6.0L V8 engine reb

When Damon brought his Holden VF Evoke 3.0L V6 down from Ballarat to Revhigh Performance Tuning, the car had a few issues that needed more than just a simple tune adjustment. The main complaint was that the car was making very little power with its current tune. There were also concerns with the 2nd-to-3rd gear shifts, along with raw fuel coming from the tailpipes, indicating that the engine’s fuel delivery and fuel trims needed attention. Diagnosing the Problem Before chasin

This Audi A5 TDI came into Revhigh for a Stage 2 performance upgrade, with a combination of hardware upgrades and custom ECU and TCU dyno tuning. The goal was to improve the vehicle's overall performance by increasing power and torque while optimising both the engine and transmission calibration to work with the upgraded hardware. 🔧 Stage 2 Setup The Audi A5 TDI received: ECU Dyno Tune TCU Dyno Tune Cold Air Intake Downpipe The combination of increased airflow, improved exha

Another Holden VF Commodore has been on the Revhigh dyno, with Will Van’s VF LFX 3.6L coming in for testing with a VCM intake and full 3-inch exhaust system. While this particular combination didn’t produce quite as much power as we typically see from similar LFX setups, the car still delivered a strong result with plenty of usable power and torque. 🔧 The Setup Will Van’s Holden VF LFX was fitted with: VCM Intake Full 3-inch Exhaust System Dyno Tuning The larger 3-inch exhau

The Audi S5 V8 is known for its smooth power delivery, great sound and strong performance. But like many direct-injection engines, it can develop a problem that isn't always visible from the outside — carbon buildup inside the intake system. This S5 came into Revhigh for a walnut blast and carbon clean to remove accumulated carbon deposits and help restore proper airflow through the intake system. So, Where Does All That Carbon Come From? As the engine operates, carbon deposi

When it comes to engine performance, most people focus on the big-ticket upgrades — intake systems, exhausts, camshafts, injectors and ECU tuning. But one part that is often overlooked is the ignition system, particularly the spark plug leads. For a V8 engine to produce consistent power, the ignition system needs to deliver a strong and reliable spark to every cylinder. If the spark isn't consistent, the engine can suffer from misfires, poor throttle response and reduced perf

Another Holden VF Commodore has been put through the Revhigh dyno, with Parvin's 2016 Holden VF V6 LFX 3.6L receiving a combination of airflow, exhaust and tuning upgrades. The result? 201.0 wheel kW and 418.5 wheel Nm. The Setup Parvin's VF V6 came to Revhigh with several performance upgrades designed to improve airflow and exhaust flow while allowing the ECU calibration to be optimised. The setup included: VCM Intake Full Exhaust System Revhigh Downpipe Custom Dyno Tune The

Another Holden Alloytec LY7 has been put through the Revhigh dyno, and the results show just how much difference the right combination of airflow and calibration can make. This LY7 came in fitted with an ORSSOM OTR (Over-The-Radiator) intake before receiving a custom dyno tune at Revhigh. The Dyno Results Before tuning, the LY7 produced: 140.0 wheel kW 307.0 wheel Nm After the custom dyno tune: 160.5 wheel kW 381.5 wheel Nm That’s an impressive improvement of: +20.5 wheel kW

The Holden VZ Commodore is already a great platform for naturally aspirated V8 performance, and this 6.0L L98 shows just how much potential can be unlocked with the right combination of bolt-on upgrades and a custom dyno tune. This VZ L98 came to Revhigh with a solid selection of breathing and exhaust upgrades, giving the engine a much better foundation for tuning. The Setup This Holden VZ 6.0L L98 was equipped with: K&N intake Pacemaker headers High-flow catalytic converters

Carbon buildup is a common issue on modern diesel engines, particularly vehicles that spend a lot of time driving around town or at lower engine speeds. Over time, deposits can build up in the intake system and around the intake valves, restricting airflow and affecting engine efficiency. This Holden Colorado 2.8L Turbo Diesel came into Revhigh for a carbon clean and walnut blast to remove years of built-up deposits. Just How Dirty Was It? As you can see from the photos, the

When it comes to getting more performance from the Holden 3.6L LFX V6, improving airflow and exhaust flow can make a significant difference. Matt’s 2017 Holden V6 LFX 3.6L Wagon is a great example of what can be achieved with the right combination of hardware and tuning. For this build, the car was fitted with a VCM OTR intake and a full exhaust system, followed by a custom tune to make the most of the upgrades. The Setup Matt’s wagon received three key performance upgrades:

The Mercedes-Benz C250 W205 is already a capable 2.0L turbocharged platform, but with the right combination of hardware and ECU calibration, there is plenty of performance to unlock. This particular C250 came into Revhigh for a complete performance upgrade consisting of a downpipe, performance intake, ECU tuning and TCU tuning. The vehicle was then tested on the dyno to measure the results. 🔧 C250 W205 Performance Upgrades For this build, we installed: Performance Downpipe P

When it comes to turbocharged performance cars, it’s easy to assume that more boost automatically means more power. Turn the boost up, make more horsepower — right? Not always. Boost pressure is only one part of the equation. To get the most from an engine, the airflow, fuel, ignition timing, intake temperatures and torque management all need to work together. That’s where proper ECU calibration makes a real difference. What Does Boost Actually Mean? Boost is the pressure cre

The 2010 VE Commodore SV6 is already a capable package, but with the right combination of improved airflow and custom tuning, there is plenty of performance that can be unlocked. This VE SV6 came into RevHigh Performance Tuning for our OTR Intake and Custom Dyno Tune Package, with the goal of improving power, torque and overall throttle response. VE SV6 OTR Intake & Dyno Tune The combination of an OTR (Over-The-Radiator) intake and a custom dyno tune is a great way to improve

If you own an LS3, particularly one fitted with GM 0821 cylinder heads, there is one issue worth knowing about: valve seat failure. What can start as a relatively small problem inside the cylinder head can quickly turn into major engine damage when a valve seat comes loose and drops into the combustion chamber. We recently had an LS3 come into the workshop after suffering exactly this type of failure. Watch the Full Video Breakdown In the video below, we explain what happened

When it comes to engine maintenance, engine oil is one of the most important — and most misunderstood — parts of the equation. Customers often ask questions like: Is thicker oil better? What does 10W-40 actually mean? Is full synthetic oil worth it? Can I use performance oil in a standard daily driver? Does a turbocharged engine need different oil? How often should I change my oil? The truth is, choosing engine oil isn't simply about picking the thickest or most expensive opt

Jason's Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG W204 came to Revhigh after a major engine refresh and some performance upgrades. Powered by the legendary M156 6.3L V8, the car had received reconditioned cylinder heads, updated head bolts, extractors and a set of performance camshafts. However, after having the car tuned elsewhere, Jason wasn't completely happy with how it was performing. Starting With a Dyno Test We put the C63 on the dyno to establish exactly where the car was at. The initial
