The wait is over boy and girls, July update begins install today.

To say I'm excited is a massive understatement. Can't wait to put my foot down for the first time.

Half way through the install,

New cam is in, lifters, intercooler, plumping, valley plate, heads have been machined, front and rear sway bars are in.

On the home stretch now, for the tune on Friday.

I'll be keen to hear what you have to say about them, because I'm trying to decide between the adjustable coil overs, or go for a Bilstein/H&R combo like I have in the ute.
