So i just bought my V Coupe and I'm from Kuwait. When I checked the Specs it said 609hp but I know that it makes 556hp so the salesman was like yeah that 556hp to the wheel and 609hp crank. So i was a little confused so was hoping maybe someone from the forum could clear that up? I thought it made 556hp crank? I asked a buddy of mine and he was like cause we live in the gulf where its hotter the V's are equipped with a bigger inter cooler hence the increase in hp. TIA
Bigger intercooler does not increase HP. It just allows you to run hotter and keep the same level of boost till it heat soaks. So it sustains the HP, but does not add to it.
