Wortec and Picador XXXXL.
Discussion
Well what can I say, picked up the VXR8 this morning from Picador's in Southampton after leaving it there yesterday for Wortec to wave the magic wand with the electric switchable exhaust, cold air intake and engine re-map, it has transformed the car which was already great but is now the dogs b*%%*cks, a very neat job has been done and the switchable exhaust is just right, power increase is VERY noticable.
A big thank you to both Picador and Wortec for a "propper job" and for getting it back to me as aranged, fantastic service by both of them.

Maverick,
Think I want to try one with the lowering springs first, must say I like the way it drives and would not want a harder ride.
Also need to drive one with the supercharger to see if it's worth spending the extra money.
As for the 20" wheels it would be a big no at present, two reasons, tooooooo expensive and the crap quaility finish on the paint, the 19" look great I think but they are a bastard to clean, have done about 750 miles so far and have cleaned them at least four times already.
I just love the car though, I think the drive is sooooooo much better than the Monaro, the seats, the steering, the room inside are just in a different league.
Moans so far are Dirty wheels, no dim dip mirror and no memmory seats.
Did you look at the power figures on the Wortec site ?, looks good and it seems to go very, very well.
If you look at the time I mailed this you will think I am some sort of insomniac but I buggered up my shoulder last evening playing with the kids and can't sleep, I feel totally nacked out, great fun at the time.
The wife says I should grow up.
By the way let me know when you are off to any track days soon, would like to come and have a nose.
