Just got a pretty mint ls1 powered calais for CHEAP.

Stock as a rock

Dont have the money for mods yet but i will in the future.

Nothing wrong with the car just checking in touching base.

So i need a rundown of these lsx's as i have never owned one before.

mine has 200k on it but its MINT literally nothing wrong with it and i was thinking before i start going down the long expensive road of mods i'd just start off with the basics

CAI big mouth, Headers, Hi Flo cats and catback dual 2.5"

Priced it roughly but where i am getting stuck is where to look locally for a tuning place in NSW Mid North coast, Coffs is close but i have no idea where to go i was hoping a local might help me out and give me an idea how much a tune+dyno would set me back? Thanks!

a tune could be anywhere form $500-1000 depending on where you go, i would make sure you go to a reputable shop, that knows what they are doing.

as for the "big mouth" forget it and get a decent OTR cold air.

but a decent cold air, exhaust and a tune is the best place to start, then diff gears, cam etc etc. all depends on how far you want to go and what your budget it.
