is your clutch slipping?
Holden wouldn't know unless they pulled it apart which would cost a few hundred $

didnt realise xforce had straight throughs
let us know how the engine light stuff goes, did u install the exhaust yourself? if not where u get it from?

metalpledge, ur car sounds awesome, i will have to look more closely at a similar set up. Whereabouts did u get urs done?

i went to Holden yesterday. it was an error with one of the cats. there wasn't as much back pressure anymore so one of the sensors just went off. they cleared it now though.

the engine light hasn't come on again yet so fingers crossed she should be sweet.

its starting to open up a bit now, sounding better and better every day

SV6 UTE
good to hear that it was an easily fixed problem and nothing serious
i think im leaning a bit toward the 2.25 xforce at the moment, i've heard a couple and the sound quite good

it's definitely a good move. sounding really good now, had a few people comment on it.

I'm still hoping that it is going to get a bit louder when it's idling though.

have you done anything to your ute yet?

SV6 UTE
nah not really, i picked it up at a hail storm auction so i still have to get it regoed and stuff. I'm just researching and trying to figure out the best stuff to fo to it. I liked the idea of the Air Hammer CAI, seems to be pretty good, but it doesnt seem to be for the SIDI. I picked up some Maloo springs from a guy on ebay who lowered his ute quite cheap so ill put those on, i just want the back to sit a little lower, i didnt want to lower it too much so i didnt scrape driveways etc.
