just a little bit of an update, my car now has rather dark tinted windows, sureflo OTRCAI and is now rolling on RPM Hiro 19*8.5 on the front and 19*9.5 on the rear with 245/35/19's all round. Have allready fitted FE2 suspension to the front but still needs to be lowered around 40mm. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

nah i cant lower it anymore than about 40mm due to the huge size of the rear rims. But even at 40mm it will bring the guard down level with the top of the tyre.

well i have now had the mafless tune done on the car which was done by D!ck from D!cks electronics. The difference is absolutely amazing, even with the standard 3.07 lsd the traction control is still trying to kick in if i punch it at anything under 60kmh. There is still more to do to the tune to get it perfect but as an estimate it has gone from around 180rwkw to around 240rwkw with still more to come yet. For all those just like i was with boosted VL's think of it this way, this is a standard untouched engine still running standard exhaust manifolds and standard cats. Everything in the engine is 100% factory with the only bolt on mod being a Cold air intake. There fore to get somewhere around 240rwkw from standard engine is absolutely awesome. For anyone with any VN onwards commodore that is thinking about getting there car tuned, i would highly reccommend D!ck from D!cks Electronics. He can tune any car that is running a Delco computer or and LS1/LS6 running Delphi computer. He can be contacted on 02-97712885, just tell him that Shannon sent you.
