Beats the hell out of me.....

The cars going great, I haven't had time to touch it since I got it on the road about a year ago now. I had it tuned at Mikes Dyno, it was always going to be a conservative tune as I was still running the engine in, and the injectors I ordered for it didn’t show up in time for the tune so we had to stick with the 360cc ones. It made reasonable power, 260rwkw at 10psi, but the injectors are at 96% duty cycle, and we ran out of time on the dyno for anymore fine tuning..
The cars a blast to drive, its my everyday work car, I've done about 20,000ks in last year and it hasn’t miss a beat, even on the stinking hot days with the aircon on flat out.. I get around 9-10 litre per 100ks on the highway, and you cant beat the look you get when you drag off a VE SS. Over all it’s the best car I’ve ever owned, Heaps off power and still all the mod cons like power steering, air con, curse control and so on..

Anyway I'm going to get the car back on the dyno for a proper tune shortly, its well intruley run in now so there will be no holding back. There’s a few things I'm going to change.
1. New billet cam
2. Different top half of the inlet manifold, I milled alot of the last one out, which I think has caused some flow problems.
3. New injectors, I'll make sure I have them in hand before booking the dyno this time.
4. Maybe something to improve the spark from the coil packs, I’ll see what’s out there..
5. replace the LSD with something else. I don’t want to put a spool in it as I do to much town driving, and the LSD didn’t last very long at all. I’ve heard about these 4x4 lokka diff centres that are supposed to be good, so I might give one of them a test…
And replace the auto when the dies, which I dont think will be to far away.

I’ll be sure to keep you guys up-to-date on it all and will post some more pics when I get the new stuff happening..
With anyluck I’ll get most of it done before the Albury autofest, so I can have the car there…
