This is a series that might interest some members.

Episode 1 starts off testing and measuring a stock standard VS V6 manual 5 speed ute. Scotty weights, dyno's and runs the ute down the strip.

I think this episode also conclusively proves the stock air box is....

I'm glad they are back to V8's again with the Lexcen and this.

Was getting pretty over the Toyota JZ/Barra stuff.
