Hey Guys
My AU's currently in the workshop getting a Racing Cam, Cold Air Intake and a Flash ECU. What else would you recommend doing while its there?? Its already been lowered, 19inch chromes, 2.5inch exhaust with extractors. I want it to be fast but im not spending 10grand++ on a turbo because Im buying a New GT in the next 12months, so what other upgrades can I do other then a cam which it already has to make it quicker>?? Also can I expect the cam to pull me back??? Will it be much quicker? Any help would be well appreaciated. Thanks Guys... |

Look into strengthening the driveline.
Nothing worse than having a nice, powerful engine and then blowing the transmission.

Some shorter diff gears and/or a higher stall converter (assuming its auto)...
