I'm guessing you're a P-Plater (since you're 18) and you're probably going to chuck a crappy exhaust on it... Before you do that, these engines aren't the best when it comes to modifications though you can do basic things like better filters, exhaust (SSV mufflers give it a decent note), etc... Don't go too crazy on the mods as you can get a V8 or another faster car when you're off your P's and you're not really supposed to mod your car to gain performance (At least here in Vic)

He's probably on his P's so that's off the table, that's an Alloytec that's been supercharged, not an LFX... Though supercharger kits make decent power out of these...

we all know you can spend a lot of money on a v6 for little gains and if he look in the v6 section he would find all the information

Remove any excess weight such as the seats, carpets, spare wheel and any needless stuff you have in the glove box, shave your head and remove all your clothes. One last thing, if you are carrying excess weight, ring Jenny Craig and ask for the ‘quick weight loss diet’.
Oh and pump up your tyres as much as you can without bursting them, (apparently air is not that heavy). Just kidding. Welcome to the forum.

Give it a really good polish.
Smooth is faster.
