    Default My Ride

    hey this is my VX S Pac.

    the only mods i have done to it are a custom aluminium air intake, which im going to upgrade to 3 or 4 inch, and place the pod in a different location to get it out of the heat a bit more, and the whole sound system, which are 2 DUB amps (cheap i know but they do the job), Cadence sub, alpine splits, pioneer 2 way in rear.

    going to get some cadence 6x9 in the rear someday, and when i get enough money, either supercharge, turbo or drop in an LS1, hopefully by the end of the year.

    let me know what you think, and any mods you think of that i could do.

    BTW, if you noticed the drivers side panel, its primed black, because someone reversed into it and took off when i was at work, and the insurance wasnt worth it. will be getting it painted this week though. Excited.

    oh and how do i save this thread to my page like other people do?

    cheers

    very very nice mate, looks good!

    i have one suggestion however, you should get a cold air enclosure for that pod, MACE makes a good one, apart from that, good work mate

    Edit: Heres the link for the enclosure for ya http://www.maceengineering.com.au/ep...roducts/CAI605

    oh and i forgot, the exhaust is done, its a 2.5 inch cat back with one centre hotdog, no other mufflers or resonators, pretty harsh when cold, but when it heats up, nice chunky sound, and backing off makes that cracking noise, which i like

    Hi Richard

    As you have been a member since May 2009 you should have been aware that there is a section dedicated to people with "My Ride" threads.

    Im sure a mod would be kind enough to move this one for you.
