    First i would give it a thorough service, you never know how the last owner has looked after it and then definetly cold air intake, exhaust upgrade and memcal upgrade to add some more horses.

    Yeah well i have allready done half service on it but its going in during the week to have plugs changed oil change and shit like that and yeah its actually getting exhaust redone tomoz. It has pacemaker extractors into 3 inch pipe straight through, the first muffler is cracked so its leaking air so im having the hole thing rebuilt tomo from the CAT back. so should be good.... wat sort of memcal would i be after and wats prices like for that and cold air intake.

    any other suggestions

    You can buy hsv style cold air intake kits off ebay but i made my own to go down through the guard in the bottom of the airbox to behind the bumper and as for the memcal search for greenfoam on here or see him on ebay (nicefrog) he does custom memcal tunes for around $80 plus changeover and really knows his stuff, busy man tho.
