Having a high performance engine in your car is every car lover’s dream. Fortunately, there are some things that you can do to help get the best performance from your engine.

A performance engine is a piece of machinery which converts any form of energy into mechanical energy in your car. It is like the powerhouse that aids the easy movement of your vehicle. A failure in the performance of your engine will be reflected in the performance of your vehicle.

It is important that your engine’s performance is enhanced or optimised to achieve maximum performance for your vehicle. There is nothing as satisfying as running on advanced engine performance, giving you the feel of comfort when driving your car at speed.

Walkinshaw Performance was founded by British motor racing driver Tom Walkinshaw in 1976. He was also the founder of a racing team called Tom Walkinshaw Racing. Walkinshaw was involved in professional rugby union being the owner of club Gloucester Rugby and holding other executive roles in the sport.

In 1987, Tom Walkinshaw ventured into a partnership with Holden and together they formed Holden Special Vehicles. Few years after the inception, they took over the maintenance and construction of motor racing cars for the Holden’s racing team. This resulted in Walkinshaw Performance becoming a key participant in the Australian motor racing landscape.

In 2005 and 2006 Walkinshaw cemented its role in the motor racing industry, investing in a high performance sports cars maker to add to his company, purchasing Elfin sports cars. Just recently in 2016, Walkinshaw Performance in collaboration with Neville Crichton began selling Ram Pickups.

However, in 2008, Holden Special Vehicles and Walkinshaw Performance partnership came to an end when their motor racing contract went to the Kelly’s family, who went ahead to set up the Kelly racing after purchasing Perkins Engineering.

2009 saw the debut of the Walkinshaw Racing which is a two car operation known individually as Team Autobarn and Bundaberg Red Racing.
