Just turned 300k in my 2009 v2. Is there anyone out there with stock bottom end with more than 300k?

Heads have never been removed
Same water pump, alternator, starter

Any modifications?

Nice to see how bullet proof these V2's are. Original transmission & rear?

And here I am concerned about rolling up on 100K, lol. Very impressive!

 

[Savoy]

Wow that is very impressive.

Any modifications?

2.5 pulley
Borla exhaust
Ported TB
WeaponX exchanger
Cold air intake
Tuned by me.

All done at 40k
Stock rear end
Just swapped trans at 275k
Keep oil clean and use Lucas oil stabilizer

Wow. That’s impressive. Just regular upkeep?

A stupid question but are you running a synthetic with this?

 

[CarCrazyRDM]

I'm going to assume the greater majority of those 300k miles were highway miles? And I don't say that to lessen the impressiveness of it at all, I mean it purely from a logistics standpoint of 30K miles a year. I drive 20k - 25k annually and at least 15K of those is highway (I travel a fair amount for work).

Wow.... I hope mine goes that far! Most of my miles are put on fast. I guess that's highway..... most times. I think it is all about the maintenance. I am very impressed with my 2009. Built like iron. That is a hell of a lot of fuel in a V. Say 13 Mpg per gallon. That would be 23076 gallons of High Test at 3.75 per gallon. Would be 86,545.00 in fuel. Incredible!
Good work! Just breaking in! Kudos! Do we hear 400,000 ???

 

[SimplyDreamin]

OP, are you the original owner? I see you joined the forum in '15. If not, how many miles when you got it?
What's the average cost of fuel per gallon where you live (Louisiana) ? If you were in CA, that would be pushing 7 figures!

 

[paintxpert]

Gas is 3.79 per gallon in Ct now. That would be Shell 93. Which is all I really use.

 

[Lbar]

That's amazing! I'd like to see how the driver's seat looks and hear what your running mpg is. I would have DFCO settings seriously altered for mpg if I were racking miles up like that

 

[CarCrazyRDM]

Any chance you've had any oil samples analyzed from someone like Blackstone over some of those higher miles? I'd be curious to compare them to mine.
