    Extractors look nice! Do you get the raspy tiny tone after 3k rpm at all?

    Hey Corbs the mesh was from car toys but autobarn sell it as well. And tuning was done this morning at Willall racing.

    ok guys just got back from getting the car tuned at Willall racing, havent scanned the dyno sheet yet but will try and get it up tomorrow.
    First run made 110.3awkw with little over 400NM total torque
    after tune made 125.7awkw with fraction under 450NM total torque

    yes i know some of you might ask that figures seem a bit low but really these figures for AWD aren't too bad.
    Also have some footage of it on the dyno so again will try and get them up tomorrow

    how much do wilall racing charge for an alloytec tune? Have heard from a couple mates that they know their stuff, gained 55kw from my friends VE SS.

    Also seeing as you go 4WD-ing, i guess the power and torque increases in the low to mid range would be best for you. Lol i doubt you'd be powering through the mud at 6000rpm... :D

    Love the car, but then I have a 2005 VZ LX6 Adventra (Odyssey) as well.

    Very interested in the mods you've done. The Adventra wheel arches just beg to be filled with decent wheels. Any scrubbing with the bigger wheels fitted?

    I'm looking at getting a double din touchscreen head unit fitted in Adelaide in Feb along with some paint protection. Any issues fitting the Pioneer besides requiring a fascia plate? Did you get the steering wheel control module as well? I'm looking at the Pioneer AVH-3150DVD and the AVH-3100DVD as they have front AUX and USB inputs.

    Next will be the engine mods.

    I think I'll bookmark this thread.

    howdy LX6, they are awesome cars you'll love it. Arches are massive and plenty of room for big wheels. Haven't had any scrubbing with the new wheels, they 10" wide front and rear too.
    With the head unit i installed it myself was piece of cake, just need new fascia plate and some wiring harness, haven't fitting the steering wheel module as of yet, dont know it i will, touch screen is just as easy to use while driving. The front mount makes it easy but ill be re-running my cables and making new sockets for them all soon (keeps cables and stuff away from gears and everything else).

    Will look out for your thread once its up.

    Hi I am brand new to this forum and have a few questions about your LX6 Mainly about you Exhaust system I bought a 2006 CX6 3 weeks ago and wont to give the car a bit more go. Did you how much did that exhaust system including custom headers and hiflow cats cost, what brand, how does it sound, and what difference has it made?
