hey guys am getting my exhaust system and pacemaker extractors and was after a little bit of info on the SS Induction kit which i can get installed with the exhaust - i was wondering if anyone has this kit and are they any good??

Also was wondering what cam everyone recommends i get and what price they range from and also LSD whats the best for an AU Forte and at what price - im not doing street racing or anything just something for a bit of power and fun

Thanx guys

for what you pay for an SS induction i dont think it would be worth it, hit ure local ford dealer and grab an au3 xr8 snorkle thse ahve a fairly wide opening.

as for cams there isnt a lot for AU's but from what i hear the RPD (see alted performace section for more details) stage 2 cam us real good.

as for a diff you are probably best grabbing the 3:45:1 diff off an au xr6

i have an SS induction kit on the Concorde, it works really weel but as said before, its probably not woth the money for the gains you get. It does add more torque down the rev range though.

i got the ss induction kit, i think they are overpriced but they are meant to be state of the art designed. I had to cut a custom hole in the airbox to allow the new pipe to go in coz its massive and im still playing with ideas at the moment to get even more airflow into my engine coz the more air in, the more power out

I did this simple mod as seen on the original EA brock falcon air box lids. Just holed saw 3 holes (42mm i think) across the front of the airbox. From the pics you can see the rubber seal of the paper filter.

Combined with an AU XR8 snorkel it has made a noticable improvment and didn't cost nothing.

Also you can see the 3 holes just sit above the relay box behind the passenger headlight which is in direct path of incoming air from behind the headlight and away from heat soak issues.....

If it is good enough for peter brock, it's good enough for me...........

my 2 bob anyway...........
