Mine is stock until the gearbox issues are sorted (if they're sorted). But I'm sold on the VCM - mainly because I intend to keep the MAF, though I think Dus is, or will be, releasing a MAF version of their intake.

The tune maximises the engine's efficiency/performance buy altering it's electronic management. The difference between MAF and MAFless is simply whether or not the MAF sensor (Mass Air Flow) is retained. In the past, the MAF has been a source of significant restriction of air flow, but it's bigger and much less restrictive in the VEs, which means MAF tuning is becoming more popular in tuning workshops - partially at least because it's illegal to remove the MAF.

Ramjet OTR can do MAf or Mafless aswell. they are really good, ugly but are really good. If i had t odo mine again id probably go VCM

Exhaust - i would go for Sureflo headers + 5" ballistic cats - 2.5" or 3" HM s/s catback
That combo works really well and sound awesome and form memory they will cost you about 3K, the best exhaust/sound for the money.

KPM is over priced for what it is... and I DONT KNOW IF ITS TRUE BUT I HEARD THAT THEY ARE STARTING TO MAKE THEM IN CHINA - just a rumour i've heard

oh and also, i had a quote on getting all that fitted then tuned
MAF tune, also they said they'd tune the box for sharper shifts, and engine response.
$1000 they said

Sounds like a good plan, id still go mafless but thats up to you decide, as for priceing prob sounds about right, i was charged 1500 for mafless tune which turned to be totally shithouse lol

wow really, 1500 ####! haha how was it **** ?
and they recommened MAF instead, because sometimes mafless can start to play up over time and retunes are more likely needed
