Looks sweet mate. "Commodore's are boring haha i love it!!" Do you really think a turbo will suit it? Maybe with too much power you might upset the car a little and lose some of it's driveability? Just my thoughts, either way it should still be a lot of fun.

It will lose alot of its driveability if i go turbo, thats why im going to try the quad throttle bodies first.

A bit more of an update
Waiting on Billet Fuel rail, Billet adjustable fuel pressure regulator and ive got some longer studs and new nuts to put on so the rims can go on..
