    That's good to know!
    And oh he owns a VR6 too? Phwoaah must check that out!
    So I'm just finishing saving up for this (Still in year 10 haha)
    Looks like in total I'm looking at this:
    Autotech 262's, GIAC Chip, 12 Lifters, Intake Manifold Upper & Lower Gaskets, Valve Cover Gasket = $560
    Shipping = $130
    Camshaft Labour = $550
    GIAC Labour = $200
    All up i'm looking at $1440 for absolutely everything!
    Sounds pretty good!
    Will keep you guys updated if I proceed with purchasing everything!
    And hopefully these prices and stuff have given people some ideas as well

    yep as woody says final drive reduction is a nice mod on a VR6. The tall gearing makes the car feel so laaaaazy
    And a nice light flywheel too. The stock one is like 18lbs or something

    That is a very heavy flywheel.

    Yeah a 10lb flywheel was something that I was considering!
    Its just that I don't have enough money to do more that a few mods at a time!
    So i thought that cams and a chip would probably be a good starting point
    But next I will look into a 10lb Flywheel
    Regarding flywheels though, don't lighter ones drop revs quicker?? = problem??
