Default VR V6 Mods..

Hey guys, been readin the forums for a while now and am finally starting to get the money and ideas to start the build on my car. Just here to ask people opinions on what to do to the engine. I was thinking forced induction, (but what type?) roller rockers, upgraded transmission, B & M pro ratchet.. But I know there is alot of other mods to be done. Can you guys point me in the right direction n what to do?

Cheers in Advance.

PS If you know of places in WA that perform such upgrades, let me know

depends how much you want to spend mate, exhaust cold air and chip/tune would be a starting point. For trans, a corvette billet servo is a good reasonable upgrade

Would you happen to know if they sell superchargers and turbos? I had a look on the site and they have everything for the forced induction but not the actual unit.. Ive emailed em and im waiting on a reply, so i guess ill see.

Cheers for that Evil_SS
