HI, i just bought a TS V6 exec.
When new they were rated at 120kw
Does anyone know if I add extractors and matching hi flow exhaust and maybe a chip upgrade, would that get it to around 160KW or would I need to do more??

dude all of that might get you 10kw. To get 160lw you'd either have to crack the motor and go stupid on it, ot throw some sort of forced induction on it, all a lot of $$$ for a boat anchor of an engine. The DOHC 6G72 engine from the 3000GT/GTO is a very popular conversion on here that has around the 160kw (dont quote me on that)

Correct.
91-93 model DOHC 3L make 163kw and 93+ onwards make 165kw.
Diamantes use the same motor but have different ECU's and as such are rated at 151kw.
You'd need to turbo the car to get anywhere near 160kw (at the fly)
