Saving the LFW: A 3.0L Holden Evoke Rescued and Reborn

  • 4 days ago

Every car has a story, and this Holden 3.0L LFW V6 Evoke rolled into our shop with more than a few chapters of neglect. What looked like a basic tune-up job quickly turned into a rescue mission—and we’re glad it made it in when it did.

At first glance, the issues were subtle. But once we dug in, it was clear: this engine was struggling. Partially blocked catalytic converters, a clogged PCV, a purge solenoid that had given up entirely, and excessive oil consumption—this V6 was crying out for help.

Rather than patch the problems, we went for a full solution. Here's what we did:

Revhigh Downpipe with Resonator – The perfect balance of performance and sound, cutting out the rasp while opening up airflow.

VCM Cold Air Intake – Complete with side panel and fascias, ensuring cooler air and stronger response.

Custom ECU & TCU Tuning – Unlocking more power and extending transmission life by correcting shift patterns and power delivery.

New PCV & Purge Solenoid – Back to breathing properly and fueling efficiently.

The results? A significant performance gain—+35kW and +60NM at the wheels. But more importantly, we helped bring this daily driver back to life with power, reliability, and peace of mind.


This is what we love doing. Not just building fast cars, but fixing the ones that matter to their owners. Whether you're chasing numbers or just want your car to feel right again, we’re here to help.
