Firstly, dont post in SMS style, it will only bring you trouble.

Secondly, define cheap. A pod filter conversion you can do for under 100 bucks.
Extractors and exhaust are about a grand.

Hey NEB

Not yet, as the motor is still being run in. Once that's done it's back to JMM for the final dyno and tune of the JMM interceptor (their own piggyback computer). Plus, I've got it booked in at Triple J's Panels for a complete respray and replacement of existing (crappy) bodykit for a brand spanker from AWC. So it looks like sometime in the new year.

Cheers
Gerry

lol.. I see I've been quoted again.

Geza... you obviously have been having hi stall fun as well. You have one hell of a engine package going there.. I cant wait to see it go down the 1/4.

Casper mate, I can't wait myself, but since this will be my first time down the 1/4 I wouldn't expect anything major.
Brenden says you could squeeze 14's out of it when it's finally tuned (depending of course on traction)...we will see.

14's out of yours or mine?
Yours should run 14's standing on its head. Given the Dev5 and all the other fruit you should be mid to low 14's.

Mine, well, I think theres a 14 in there now but I want to get a few more things sorted first before I head back to the track. I was going to do Heathcote last weekend but it was cancelled so I'll just wait a while, see if I cant sort some other bits out and then give it a go.

When you do head out, send me and email and if I'm not working (bloody roster chews two weekends out of every month) I'll come for a look see and maybe some education.

I'll let you know but if you race I'll just get even more depressed when you beat me without even trying :(
My engine is still totally unopened... yet!

Mate I know how it is, but as engine mods go I think it's the end of the line for me 'cause I promised the missus no forced induction whatsoever...however, I didn't tell her that Brenden has become an NX dealer/installer yet.
But I'll wait awhile before I spring that one on her.
