    a V8 =P lol.. no when i had my SV6... i had a platora of ideas... but it all depends on budget and wants... you can go all out of supercharging... or go with a tune, and shift program?... research and enjoy... have a goal... more power, trackability... dyno runs?... what?

    mate start with basics...
    2hole mod to your air box or cold air induction, exhaust, headers and cats, bigger injectors and high flow fuel pump. depending on money look into a CRP6 air intake manifold. If your wanting something hectic maybe check out the range of superchargers available for the alloytec.
    now with tunes, i know that VCM suite doesn't have tuning programs available for mine or your cars (5speed semi-auto). unless yours is a manual of course lol. then you can look into a performance tune.
    apart from that mate i think thats it aye..............

    i thought vcm can tune the alloytec, i dont think they can tune the gearbox though. there is a sticky thread on the vz page with a big list of mods to do

    Nah, the search function on this forum is crap. Try the VZ frequently asked questions. It's in the VZ section as one of the stickies.

    thats just what i've been told from a bloke from VCM. he didn't exactly explain why, maybe someone should call and ask about it.

    No they CAN tune the engine, just can't change the gearbox (Shift patterns etc) like you can in the 4spds.
