Im not to sure where to put this because its a Mod...but not for the BA!

Dad and I have pretty much run out of Bolt ons for his EB XR8...Decent Extractors and a very Nice 3 inch system.A K&N Panel Filter and some nice fuelling Controll(98 Points of pure octane)!It only has 200K on it and is still a very sweet motor,so any chance of a Herrod 347 ReBuild or some nice heads and manifold even(anything that is a bit of motor out work) is out of the question :(

Basically all he will run too is some Cold Air Induction,the Factory thing looks like it will be strangled by two moths(little ones at that)but I cant find any mob anywhere that seems to have one for the EB...Can anybody out there help us?Im sure more than one of out forumers has had an EB-ED 5.0 with some mods...

If anybody can help me if would be very much appreciated...I dont like the idea of a 70 year old UTTERLY Non Mechanical Old Fart and a 19YO UTTERLY uncaring imbecile(that's me ) hacking and taking a Rampod and Cold Air Box to a relatively pristine XR-8.

On my EB V8 I used a cold air intake from a EF XR8. Costs about $30 and is way larger than the stock intake. Doesn't fit perfectly but it sits in the right spot.

I have a suggestion! sell the xr8 and buy a T. better all round. sorry. it is a T forum! :idea:

Well Maybe I need reccomendations on how to convince an Old Fart to Buy a T...

Simple solution. Take him to a dealer that will let him test drive it or come on a run. I am sure someone will take him for a ride.

I am sure a simple ride will sell it.. The car is just that good..

True Brendan, it took a good mate of mine, hell bent on an VY SS, about 2km to say "I don't wan't an SS anymore I want one of these, you can't get the smile off peoples faces after they drive it. :D :D :D

He almost went for a drive in the Boss 260 Manual but after he started and revved the thing he didnt want to drive it..."I wanna buy it on the Note alone" but 50odd Large for an Pensioner Painter is just a bit too much...

Unfortunately the Local(60Km Away)dealer hasn't got any XR's at all on stock any more so I just gotta catch one of you guys in my home town one day...Preferably in Blood Orange...

Coming for a cruise to North Coast NSW guys?

Otherwise I suppose waiting a few years till some of these Second hand Speed machines hit the road isnt that bad...
