    Sounds like you need some of those metal planks that some people have on the driveways/gutters. Or just bag your car. I could get it done for you over the weekend +a million dollars.

    Its not that loud down low cause its just got the middle resonator and rear muffler but up higher in the revs it gets louder. sounds pretty good for an ecotec.

    the cats were welded in as part of the catback so the only join is at the extractors or halfway through the cat back. you can get some that are bolt ins though. A member on here Not an abba fan is his name sells exhausts that bolt in so you could contact him if oyu wanted one

    This also needs SS headlights. Try Car Parts - Body Kits - Spoilers - Rear Wings ...and more Car Parts | Sydney Special Vehicles || Sydney Special Vehicles
    Might be cheap on there.

    Ps. I sold my car.
    I almost bought them a month ago but i went broke i kinda wanna get the spoiler off the boot too and see what it looks like then.. i think it would look better but i dont want to do it until i can get the boot holes filled

    i can get em on ebay for about $120 i think so i might get some now that i got some overtime this month... that and possibly a cold air intake just to neaten up the engine bay as it looks like a dogs breakfast at the moment

    Looks good mate!

    I was suprised by your dyno sheet going wtf 118RWKW stock.. then I realised it's manual.. Mine pulled 109.8RWKW stock..

    Edit: I think it was a power happy dyno lol.. I dunno how you pulled 12RWKW from an exhaust upgrade, but i went 2 1/2 inch exhaust, pacemaker extractors etc and i went from 109.8 to 115.5.

    yeah it was a dyno dyanimcs dyno so apparently they do like to over estimate the power a bit... so you got high flow cats and everything else as well? dunno why they would be so different other than the dynos and yours being an auto

    although my cats and all are welded in if it makes any difference
