Love your car darren hope mine comes out half as good!

just wondering who did the tuning on it?

thanks Trev, judging by the standards of your previous cars, I'm sure your car will turn at least as good as mine
did you just buy another car ? I can't keep up with your cars lol ! I haven't been out to the Munch Inn for a while now.

Terry from Paramount Performance in Toowoomba did my tune. I've got the SP3 ECU, so he did a fresh tune from scratch. He was recommended by Alan Gibbs from Kalmaker.

Darren I always keep going back to this thread. I am now building up a VT 5.0litre for my VK. Did you find a big improvement with you TTB set up? I had a look on Trickshift website and they are quite a lot cheaper than the original HSV gear but look similar. How much do they sit above the bonnet by? Pete

hey Pete, it went from 250rwhp to 275.
I guess the percentage on increase depends a lot on the engine mods
And the the top edge of the throttles don't quite make it under the bonnet. Easily makes it under the grp 3 scoop.

but yeah, if you are looking for really big gains, a supercharger is probably going to give you more bang for your $$. I don't think any intake manifold on it's own is going to give you anywhere near as much power increase as a SC.

I just didn't want to go down the FI path
