    Welcome mate, I use to race karts too, but got too $$$, so just looking at club tarmac rally's and hillclimbs now. So Albury Wodonga, do you classify yourself as a Vic or NSW bloke? lol Anyway good luck with the racing, and enjoy the site!

    Cheers

    Mate, welcome to the site!
    Good to see someone with some 'advanced' driving skills.
    Register yourself on the Vic Forums aswell http://vic.opelaus.com/forum and you can see whats happening Opel-wise in Victoria. Heck, we might even organise a cruise up there aswell.

    Take Care

    It should already
    Well how much money do you want to spend?
    You can do the usual CAI, K&N filter, extractor, exhaust etc, maybe even a Powerchip Gold. That'll give you enough to beat falcons and commo's....

    OR... you can do what Tony [mr_corsa] did...
    Turbo the thing, throw in a few extra $$$ and get 229.9kw atw. Thats when you're falcon/commo killer also becomes a Ferrari killer too... and i'm not joking.

    Well it ****s over V6 commodores n 6 falcons but thats about all. if they get modified it wont be to hard to beat me. well i actually dont have alot of money to spend, you know being a student and all, n pretty much all money goes into racing.
    was wondering if any body had played with the intake on these things, and i dont me CAI and air filter. stuff like making a inlet plenum with some tuned velocity stacks. been thinking off that as i can do that rather cheaply.
