TURISMO VZ SS 6.0
Easiest mod for performance would be to sell it and buy a new car.

If that's not an option, try the search button.

Hi Coch.

Usually people do exhaust, cai, tune, rockers and gears.

If you search on forums you will get a lot more much more in detail info

X2 best advise you'll get!

Remove the existing engine and replace it with an L67 and an L67 tune(memcal). Direct bolt in.

i think its safe to assume he's on his P's which generally makes that not really an option

Apologies to the OP if your not on your P's

save money that would be spent on those mods.
put it towards an 8.
unless you have lots and lots to chuck at a 6. it isnt going to be a rocket ship.


however if you want to improve fuel economy performance (tbh id consider that a performance increase)
Mace Spacers. Extractors (not all but some can) with 2 1/4 stock exhaust.
i can get 8L per 100. with just the S/C Cai and 12mm Mace spacers. hopeing it gets better witht he extractors (ive read the ones im getting should)

easiest mod is to remove all the rubbish in your car you dont need.
baby seats. toolboxes. spare wheels... (seriously dont do that one)
less weight = less that engine has to haul around.

I thought extractors where one of the last mods that your meant to do as they don't make much difference?
I'm no expert but that's what I've read.

i'm on my P's i have a VT manual, i've done: extractors, hiflow cat, 2.5" exhaust, mace 12mm spacers, growler kit, bored and polished TB, yella terra 1.7's, 105# valve springs with locks and retainers to suit, wade 992a cam, crow cams lifters and timing chain, chip torque tune, kings springs and gt shocks, 3.46's LSD. you feel the biggest differences when you do the exhaust system and diff gears. its up to you with the amount of mods you want to do, just make sure you plan ahead.
