Well i got it back yesterday after the rebuild and its sooo much better, pulls heaps hard and i havent even used full throttle yet. There is a problem with the idle atm but i looks like the chip will be sent to chiptorque to be modified. The 1st to 2nd gear change is heaps punchy. Have to get it serviced after 1000k's then ill really be able to test it out. Cant wait!!!!

Ive put a about 3,000k's on this thing now and it hauls. Idle is still playin up but were workin on it, it still looks like it will be the chip but time will tell. Hopefully lined up a LSD for it too and should be upgrading the brakes around tax time:). Overall im pretty happy with the car now, it keeps up with V8 pretty easily. It made 128 rwkws on the dyno but they said it was a low reading so ill have to get a proper figure sometime soon.

Nah mate it had a 2.5 catback on it before all the work. When the engine got rebuilt it needed extractors. The exhaust shop happened to be right next door so he knew what my car was getting done to it, so we decided to use the cat back and chuck another cat on because of the extractors are designed for a twin cat setup. I wasnt too sure about the pipe sizes but it runs great and sounds sweet too. All the work was done at the same time as the auto shop, engine shop and exhaust shop where within 20m of each other.
