heres the go fast cheap list-

2.25-2.5 inch exhaust
extractors
cai
diff gears- 3.45 onwards
shift kit (auto)
mitsubishi magna v6 injectors which flow a little more
complete service on the motor/trans/etc

I'd agree with that, apart from the injectors, dont bother waisting your money / time on those. you'd need to be pumping out a hell of a lot more kW's before injectors even become an issue....

With the short spin you gave in the VP the other day at Maccas Brownie - your car's perfomance aint that far off top shelf already.:)

Bet it's easier on the eye now that its closer to the ground:p.

Go's alot better now, picks up through the higher gears and higher speeds alot quicker now and also has a nice lean cruise to save me petrol.

Ah I love the CAI! just how I did it with about the same size bits of wood. I also don't know if there's much preformance in that since I put it on in a modified state. But there's No use putting something on stock if it can take some improvement first. That's my motto :) even if it's only 1rwkw, do that 10 times and you have a V6 no other bolt on V6 is going to touch. May I suggest a corvette servo as your next mod, cheap and awesome, no Commodore should be without one. And get those Advance headers ^ then call up a zoorst shop and get them to order you a new Y pipe

Ok so just picked up some advance headers off a forum member (thanks guilty),

I now need to get the Y piece made up from the exctractors to the cat, anyone know of a place in adelaide that would be able to do it, a good job and a good price aswell?

Short Update
So i thought it was time for a quick update along with some pictures.

I have bought some Advance headers and shall be getting the Y piece ordered as soon as i receive some more funds (by the end of the week). So the extractors should be installed by the end of the week.

I also gave my car a wash today so here are a few pics
