Yeah baz. It's probably faster in a straight line (Seriously, GTO's HAUL) but there's no way in hell it's faster through corners than troy's old vr4. His vr4 was probably faster through corners than his VI.
The 4G63 motor code is street shorthand for dominance. It's automotive Darwinism.

Well id say its faster then the VR4 (cold and hot) and faster the the VI (cold) in a straight line, havnt really had the chance to throw it around in courners yet, but i can get the arse to hang out :)

Think i need to build a cold air box, as its f..kin hot under that bonnet, and the K&N is sucking all that heat straight in :(

Maybe some meth / water injection would be a cheap option for intercooling!

Thats a option as well, but a large FMIC will also help instead of the two tiny ones it has stock.

I'd go basic.

Intercooler / Intercooler piping / Intake piping / Exhaust / Boost / Tune.

See where you are and then meth / water injection OR forget the injection and just go bigger injectors and pump with E85.

I'm sure you'll be in the 200kw-300kw at the wheels range with the above mods.

First! YAY TROY. Dreamcar?
I'm 6'0 and I can drive one of these no problems at all! I reckon about 6'4 is the cutoff.


Im 6'2" and with the seat on a 45 degree angle my head still hit the roof.

Tried to get in both passenger and driver side and no chance in hell.

We got some funny looks from confused motorists on the way back from syd hey troy!
