From memory knock sensor add and different memcal.

Cannot remember too much more though. I know there are a few differences but not much...

Cheers

Yes the above, plus it had a lsd. Someone once told me they had a different stall than usual, doubt it though. I know they have a rev limiter,

Im not too keen on the old sv3800, Pay more for a couple of stickers really. Although the trim is nice and comfy,

Sorry just my 2 cents,

The sv3800's only performance mods were memcal chip and exhaust.

It made 132kw over the standard 125kw.

0 - 100 was 8.1 seconds.

Cheers
