OTR CAI and K&N pannel filter cost around $150, LSD and diff gears or a Delcowizzid tune.

sorry mate. its an over the radiator cold air intake, you can find em at repco, your holden spare parts guy or ebay. some people dont like them but their way better than the stock air intake, are legal, matched with a K&N pannel filter give you no real power increase but a better throttle response and you can clean it and reuse it.
