wot does gear changes do?
and wot r roller rockers?

sorry 4 dumb questions lol

gear changes, i assume you mean diff gear changes. changing the ratio of your differential is basically increases or decreases the tractive effort of your car. how many turns of your tailshaft to one full rotation of your wheel. the higher the ratio of your diff i.e the higher the number 3.86, 4.11, the easier it is for your car to turn the wheels. the only downside is the higher you go, the more top end speed you lose, so effectively you have to rev your car more to get the speed out of it. there are a few different types of roller rockers, you can have roller pedestals which are on the ecotecs and rockers with roller tips.............

actualy the v6 allmost puts out twice the amount of hp then the 6tvl

i presume you are talking about the VL Turbo 6. stock it put out 150kw at the fly, the next 6cyl motor to put out that much power stock was the VS S/C V6 which was 165kw's. the na ecotec was 147kws. lets not bring the alloytec into it, it's a totally different motor with potential.

if you put a boost controller on a stock VLT for $50 you would have 200kw's at the fly.

so yes the ecotec is an out of date P.O.S push rod motor, but i like it.

VLT6 are a wannabe rice boys dream car.. they dont match up to a nice ecotec... and the only thing a VL driver floggs is his long tom..

thats about as much as an exhaustthere about 300 bucks,get some decent leads
thats a grand
1500 id change to a lsd dif if you havent got one or convert her to manual
hell change the sespention or fly to broom for a week your choice

OH and get a kn

 

[TAILS83]

rockers are actually $895 heheheh
you should be able to get a redback zorst for $240
extractors for $600
leads for $50
and a lsd diff with new lower ratio will be about $1500, realistically.
thats if your lucky will be good for 150rwkw or 200rwhp.
