Walkinshaw Performance boosts LS3-powered HSVs to 547kW/880Nm

Walkinshaw Performance has introduced their W547 package designed specifically for 6.2-litre LS3 V8-powered HSV’s.

Described by the tuner as being “by far the most powerful performance enhancement available for a Commodore that Walkinshaw Performance Products has ever produced,” the package costs $25,990 fitted.

As the name suggest, the package boosts the LS3’s output to 547kW and a massive 880Nm of torque. While the W547 was designed with HSV models in mind, the package is also suitable for Holden’s LS3-equipped VFII Commodore SS, where power is taken from 304kW/570Nm to 507kW/850Nm.

The package has been developed and engineered with the quality expected from an Original Equipment Manufacturer. It consists of a WP230 Supercharger, large high-flow injectors, water-to-air intercooler package, camshaft and valve spring upgrade, ceramic coated headers, dual active cat-back exhaust and Eaton Twin Vortices 2300 Series (TVS) Gen VI rotors amongst others.

Walkinshaw will offer the first 50 Australian customers a special “launch edition” package with additional goodies such as yellow cast aluminium coil overs and yellow supercharger top cover, along with a hot lap in a V8 Supercar as part of the deal.
