There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

Hey mezzmo, some questions for ya.

Are you running HQ disks with CF booster?
Were did you mount your air intake box, did you use the commodore one?
accelerator cable, get one made up or found one that fitted?

cheers

Hi Busy,

Running the standard booster with the hq discs but after the bash we are going to look for a different booster to give us a bit firmer pedal, it does the job but it could definitely be better. The air intake box is mounted directly behind the bonnet scoop and is the original commodore one - using the original filters. Worked like a charm. As far as the accelerator cable, i am positive that the mechs had a new one made, i can check this out for you when i next talk to them.

When the van gets back i'll take some close ups of the air intake if you like.

Cheers

Thanks that will be good, I've mounted my intake box under the booster and my radiator is a bit higher so is very tight for all the pipe work

We found that because the V6 sits so low, we had a shitload of room between the top of the engine and the underside of the bonnet, what are you running Busy?
