Might wanna start with fixing your exhaust. 2.25 is a bit restrictive on a 3L isnt it? I know im starting to reach the limits of it on my car!

Don't really see how an LSD is a bad idea. They're pricey, but I wouldn't think a bad idea. 2.25 is probably fine unless you're going to mod it beyond breathing mods. I love my LSD. AS for the mounts, tommo is on the money.

Probably not. Jason pulled 294kW with his 3.5 and his piping was 2.5.

I think he's just saying that 2.25" probably isn't going to be as restrictive as some people might think considering the amount of power Jason has in his engine with only 2.5" piping.

I'm pretty sure the 3.0L come with an exhaust bigger than 2.25 stock.

Yeah, and he's backing up my post.

Nah. MMAL quoted it at 56.5mm which is just under 2.25'. It actually narrows down to 2.15' at one point.

thanks for the advice, yes the exhaust is crap, was done when i had no money and needed a new one, while its up on the hoist its getting the extractors fitted and a twin 2' pipe put in, ive been told that it will keep it to 95 decibels and still breath well, and yes the legal limit is 90 decibels im told but i ill see if i can sneak it through

Miles of overkill.
