Water pumps are a shocker for a grinding noise , you would think it was a pulley bearing or something just get it noted at the dealer ship , I've had mine noted and they have replaced diff hat seal etc for a leaking diff

Apart from the obvious (wheels, suspension) just K&N filter, 2 1/2 inch cat back and a tune 359.6 rwkw. I have had it flashed back to stock for the moment as I wasn't happy with the tune.....initial throttle response was terrible and they used the HP tuning system so I'm going to go with the xcal this time around.....much better from what Mick from Pitlane and Simon from Nizpro have told me. Just in two minds as to which tuner I will go with.....both are very reputable tuners so either way I can't go wrong and thier results speak for themselves. Who are you using for your tume mate?

ImO I would go mick at put lane ... Done a freaking awesome job on mine .... And it's a safe tune .. 445kw with herrods bolt ons ... It really is surprisingly quick

I hadn't noticed until last night - after a spirited drive up to the TV towers in the Dandenong's - the fan's came on - and my initial response was that the car was running too hot - but the temp gauge was still below half .. I had my son with me - and his reply - 'just nail it - get that supercharged spooled up and you won't hear the fans'... hahah .

Yes they are loud !!!

Yeah it makes people look at you... At least you haven't had a police officer ask you if you've been giving it a bit of a boot full...

cause he expressed some interest as to why my fans were running so hard :)
