But aren't you the reason we have no brain matter around here?

On a more serious note, after i've thought about it, i guess there will be some gain, i just think you should have gone the t5 + dev 5 cam + extractors + exhaust + 3.7's instead of 19" wheels.

Lynette, I think its great that you bought the things you like and want!!!
I have different likes for different reasons and i use my car for different purposes but thats the good thing I love my car even more because of the things i have done to it!!!

I think 19's will chage the way Falcon looks and as long as your happy with the final product then thats all that matters!!

You best be posting some before and after pics!

P.S I love the way my extractors flow and sound!

Guys Guys Guys, this is my cousin Lynette.

I will be putting the extracts and exhaust on as they are no use to me now (turbo).

Now, Lynette isnt like us guys lol she wants looks....

I was thinking,
Mags and Lowered
Body Kit
Tinted Windows
3.7s diff ratios so she can smoke commys off the line.. (is an auto btw)
One of those cheap shiftkits (should chirp 2nd with 3.7s)

This should give her a nice little pickup in performance and be a real head turner at the same time? What you guys say?

Lets think from a fems perspective boys haha..

There's too much stuffing around otherwise.
on later model cars, the LPG/Petrol issue doesn't make much different in terms of engineering, it costs the the same either way

i now have 2 red rocker covers - if i manage to fit them both, will i get close to 20rwkw?

but on a serious note - a nice set of rims for $1300 (17's), 3.45's or 3.7's, cam/headwork, lowering - that'd be a pretty good start at least! i'd get a nice brakes/suspension package on it - make it so much nicer to drive!

I agree. Some people want a cool looking cruiser. Performance is good, but nothing better than nice rims, lowering and a body kit. At least with it looking good, it will make the car feel like a new car. With the exhaust, it will sound as good as it looks.

well i can tell you, i would be very happy with those mods. The exhaust alone picked up more than i thought, so she is definately in for a surprise there.

Me personally, i would rather something to look at first, then go performance, but i also agree, there is no better feeling then seeing others faces when they have just been owned by a box. hehe

I did a 16.4 on G-tech, mind you i started in gravel and had very poor reaction time (first time using it) and my only mods are 2.5 cat back and pod filter (4.0 auto, standard rear). Get a better reaction and start on bitumen id say .5 of a sec gained at least so thats not bad.

Get a Pioneer CD Player with a Ipod adaptor, some new speakers (not 6x9's) and a single 12" sub which will keep the tunes happy

17" wheels (cheap tyres)
Lowered
Tint (if applicable)
Exhaust
Air Box mods
mild cam
body enhancements

it has everything then
