General TechHave a question that is not covered by one of the other categories? This is the forum for all other items not specifically covered in other categories.
Hi mate, a nice set of extractors, high flow cat, 2.5" exaust.
A stage two cam, and a good filter will get you started.
Thermo fans would be good also.
cheeres man thats what i had ppanned not sure where bouts the best place to go bout getting it done thoe also brands much diff in like exaust systems thinking like lukey/ genie not sure what extractors ne ideas ? was thinking bou t the pacemakers ( chrmoe ones )(3 groupes of 2 )
Mate do a search for SVO347, he lives in perth, he should be able to help you out with some info on exaust shops etc.
Send him a PM, and tell him i told ya to do it.
1st get the extractors/exhaust done, as most mods after that will rquire it anyway.
So far, the best quotes i have got are from Quikfit balcatta, bat there are other stores closer to you.
Im tossing up wether to go Pacremaker race series, or Lukey headers. I think paceys are close to $400, lukeys nearer to $300. But i havent got any quotes for a while.
2.5" mandrel bent exhausts start at around $240. I had a lukey system on my ea, sounded good. But will probably get a berkley staright thorough system on my EB. Personalt taste really.
Then make a home job Cold Air Intake. Do a search for what others have done.
After that, id suggest a cam from wade. Go to inline 6 forums and check out the cams thread. Just go to the last page or 2 (there are over 500 posts)
Probably cost WAers $120 + $15-20 shipping either way.
And get some adjustable gear from crow for around $200.
If your cars auto go to mechanicalforums.com(.au??), register, and check out the 'electronic shift kits'. Have to be logged on to view.
Can make your own for like $20, and get wheel spin into 2nd gear :)
Then if still not enough go for you. Change the diff gears. 3.45 (xr6) are pretty common.
If u got a auto, 3.7s, or manual 3.9s, are probably the best matched.
After that u are looking at head work, and bigger matched cams, which costs a bit of $$.
So ill leave it at that for the moment.
