Chris Orchard (aka Ballistic) invited me along to Active Automotive as they test & tune his awesome Blown Injected VL Calais. With the crew chasing an electrical gremlin since the freshen up this was an opportunity to get the car sorted before it goes on the truck to Summernats as Chris has qualified for the Burnout Masters after placing 2nd in the Burnout Championship at last years event.
With the car undergoing a freshen up recently and debuting at West Coast Nats, it’s been a busy few months for the team at Kustom Panel & Paint who completed the full re-spray and colour change. Along with Malaga Motor Trimmers who have provided a brand new custom interior for the car.
But the main purpose of today’s video is the ongoing testing of the brand new Dry-Sumped 360 Cube LS Engine built by Active Automotive, with some initial testing completed at West Coast Nats followed by a last minute trip to Narrogin Revheads to sort out the tune the crew have installed a new MSD in the car which should be on the dyno in the next 24 – 48 hours, stayed tuned we’ll have some footage of this weapon screaming on the Dyno.
Chris would like to thank the following businesses for their ongoing support:
– Active Automotive
– Kustom Panel & Panel
– Tyre Right Geraldton
– Diamond Detailing
– Static Whitewalling
– Explicit Motorsport
