As Bourney has said good workshops with good reputations.

BTA is also a club sponsor and Autotech was a club sponsor as well.

So roughly off the top of my head that is a 23% improvement. What is nothing to be sneezed at.

Nice work!

You also have weight on your side, so don't discount that!

Main thing is I'm sure it's a lot nicer to drive, so it's money well spent!

Now just need to wack a hi flow cat and 2.5" catback and you're laughing

ah nice!

there are sometimes some intakes that come up every now n then, just a 3inch pipe really.

Exhaust shops can fab them up too, or even somewhere like autotech could do the job.

HJC in Penrith have all sorts of intakes for all sorts of cars. Or they may have the stuff for you to make it up yourself.
