Hey guys, just wondering what is some of the best bang for your buck performance products for the ecotec.

I am a P-plater in NSW so gotta put up with the law of not being able to touch my motor but serious f**k that I dont wanna wait another 2 years before I can have some more power, so preferbly more subtle mods would be nice.

I currently have a full exhuast system, a 12mm manifold spacer and a DIY air duct on my manual V6.

Any help is much appreciated

VN V6, nothing special
Cam, diff gears and tune, thats what I would be doing :)

If you cbf doing cam do some rockers.

EDIT: also if you have a singles spinner get an lsd/spool.....

Oh yeah i forgot to mention i got an lsd fitted last week, sooo much fun :D

In regards to pod filter yeah its on the list, and before everybody goes to kill me im gonna have a go at making a cold air box like the MACE one so it will be fully enclosed.

So it looks like i got rocker rollers, cam, tune and diff gears left now

2004 holden VZ v6 ute.
Rockers for a cheaper and easier install, Sucks being a P plater, had the same problems.
Were did you Get LSD done, Looking on ebay approx $200 for entire rear axl, would replace my self but if price is good. Got the mace pod box and upgraded to K&N filter with the 12mm spacer done,

Doing the rockers next, the ones from mace again.

There are heaps of discrete mods you can do these ends, however it comes down to the amount of work you can do yourself and budget having a significant bearing on whether you go cam or rockers. If you get clear on this then everything else will fall into place.

Cheers,
Steve
