3000 Grand to spend

[redbelly007]

Hey Guys
I have 3000 to spend on my car i was thinking going a new set of headers and then otrcai and then see how much i have left anyone got any ideas what they would do with 3000 grand let me know. :hmmm:

[PsYcHo]

So i take it you have $3000 to spend?

I'd go full exhaust. Get yourself i nice V8 note and a bit more power.

Later on, OTRCAI and a tune and you'll be laughing

3000 grand!!!!!!.....

3,000,000!!!!!. Sweet!!!.

Lol - sorry - had to say it.

If you're a handy guy, 3 grand could see you possibly with exhaust, OTR, tune and a CAM. As i said, thats if you're a handy home mechanic that could do the work yourself? (beer / bourbon helps to get a few mates round).

Cam - $700
OTR - $300
Tune - $1000???
Exhaust $1000 ??

As i say, a lot of this is based on hunting for the right price, and doing a lot of elbow work yourself.

What're you after?

Power only?

Bit of power and some lowering?

Brakes?

Bling?

If it was my money and time over again with a limited budget:

Gear ratio change - $1000ish if you know where to shop.
CATback with opened CATS - $depends on what brand you buy but generic X-Force, redback etc - $750 & less if you can fit it yourself.
Mail order Tune and OTR - $1000 (depending on the OTR you buy)

If any coin leftover ... slotted rotors fitted yourself = $250-$400.

Good spread of mods which SHOULD make it a completely different car.

Don't get hung up on "headers". the stock cast headers flow well enough to use on LS turbo application and are not really needed on a relatively stock car.

400 ways to skin a cat ... chose the one that's to your liking and run with it.

what about valve springs

there is some cheap systems going cheap on ebay atm
headers cats exhaust for $1300
then a OTR and a tune

[MickmeMate]

I would get a decent cat back and OTR and tune done. If anything left get some slotted rotors which you can fit yourself to save a buck. A bog stock car doesnt really "need" headers straight up a good catback will do wonders on sound and a bit of power. If your after power go OTR and tune. My stock VYSS S2 was 208Rwkw had a OTR and Tune done came out 226.6Rwkw and from 490 to 550 Nm of torque.

Good pickup - you are right.

I think i paid a few hudred for my PAC 918's, and fitted them myself.

What has the car currently had done to it, sounds like you already have headers so I'm guessing you have a catback too?

3000 to spend hey!!

On my VY SS ute I just did Genie extractors, Metallic high flow cats, X-Force 2 1/2 inch dual exhaust, otrcai and mafless tune. This cost me about $3000.
Made 238rwkw and has made it a different car. Very happy with result.
