Fitting a gt42 into a ba engine bay there is a lot of things to take into account that most people probably dont notice when they look at it finished in the engine bay.

d rangd Member 341 Member For: 15y 5m 2d Posted 22/11/09 12:55 AM Author Share Posted 22/11/09 12:55 AM hey man. nah I have been STUFFED around by the performance shop. cars been gone 8 weeks and has seen the hoist for about 2 weeks max of that. im off for a month now so itll be staying there until I get back. VERY unhappy. ive bought an autronic for the car so I will be getting the car back with the standard ecu tune, probably about 420kw, then get the rear end installed, plus moly cage, transbrake, slicks etc. then I would be rapt if I could trailer it back to cv for some real service, and a killer tune and setup with the autronic...really pissed about the service of the shop and the bullsh*t ive been fed, should of had it back a month ago. cannot speak higher of exhaust innovations though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
