Default Au heads and manifold packages

I read somwhere here or on another site that a place in sydney sells a complete top end package for the windsor
it consists of manifold/heads/cam and i think maf and throttle body has anybody fitted this to their car and is it good value for money.
i really wanna do something to my au series 1 xr8 ute but have been doing way too much reading on the net instead

I'd be looking at a trickflow top end kit, something like this: http://www.trickflow.com/partdetail....0&autoview=sku

As for somewhere in in Sydney, I'd be bringing it over from the states, works out a lot cheaper at the moment...

"Value for money", and "Windsors" are not something that goes in the same sentence very often... Those kits do offer pretty food bang for buck, but by the time you buy that kit, pay for shipping, get it built (unless your doing it yourself), buy a flash tuner, and get it tuned the cost gets up there..

If you want good kw/$ then buy a raptor supercharger kit. Will cost you $5600 for the base kit, add another few hundred for tuning and for around 6k you'll be pushing 250ish rwkw (here)

But then again, nothing sounds better then a worked weezor!
