Hey dacko,
Have you got twin pipes all the way to the back? What extractors did you use? Great torque from the 5L! |

Don't think the extractors are a particular brand,i could be wrong though,the place who did the upgrade badges them as there own.IPV(Isaac performance vehicles)

Fuel economy is looking better according to the trip meter,guess it might take a few tanks to really see a improvement,but so far so good
