Mint SS gren. Could possibly have a maf tune. You've got the JHP 100mm maf pipe by the looks of things. Have a look at your airbox, it should have two stinking great holes in the front of it, if not, it's Monaro two hole mod time. Zero cost mod and a little extra go.

Yeah I did notice the huge JHP badges in the door sills this morning. Ill go have a look in a sec at the air box.

Its getting a DUS OTR and a Malfess probally next week anyway so its not a big deal. Its supposed to have a bigger Throttle Body, Ill rip the pipe off later and get a better look.

Ive already realised what every one has been telling me. Black cars are a bitch to keep clean. I washed it right after I got it, drove home and its already dirty.

I am extremely happy though, the torque and the power is amazing.



Hahaha, man tell me about it, i'm glad mine lives in a lock up garage, otherwise i'd never bother washing it. Black is a whore to keep clean and scratch free. Lose that towbar though! Will save some weight :yeah: Rip thos engine covers off and get it down to Chevs :yeah:

How many people left in the validated Vic chapter with V6's now? I think we all own V8's now.
