    I had a blown VP calais and put on the CAI setup from the blown VS V6 and it fits up nicely. So all you'll need to do is go to Holden and get the CAI parts which are readily available and won't take more that about 10 minutes to hook up. The parts are the acutal ram that sits over the radiator, the pipe that connects the ram to the air box and the bottom half of the airbox with the corner cut out. You can either buy it, or get adventurous and modify your existing one with a hacksaw blade. I had to adjust the rubber stoppers on the front of the bonnet otherwise the bonnet won't open due to the ram sitting on top of your fan cowling, so just turn them clockwise a turn or two so your bonnet sits flush with the guards.

    You do have the SV airbox don't you? If you do it is sort of an cai with the snout (like the VN GRP A). All I did was add the VR-VS HSV cai to the SV airbox lid.

    What build # is your's? Mine is #92

    I think the only difference is that the HSV version has HSV embossed on the CAI, the "VS V8 series 2" snout should otherwise be the same (it only costs like 50 bucks so for that price it's close enough :P)

    VS V6 CAI won't fit over the fan shroud...
