    Thats really weird.. hopefully a mod can delete the other one.
    Manifolds, 2.5" downpipe and cat are off. Front and rear headers are in place and trying to align the crossover... its being difficult though..

    any plans to do either rockers or a cam? if so then you should be very close to the same power as a L67

    With my 2.5" downpipe,hai,hv3, 91 octane overkill incar tune I took my buddies bonne ssei by a full car from 100km/h to 180km/h. But they are heavier then a gtp.
    I have a complete topswap that I was going to install but backed out, I can't afford a breakdown if for some reason something went wrong so I'm selling it and will get probably rockers one day.

    Yep that was the first leak. So buddy( who installed the headers) took egr off and noticed he crunch the lil bit of piping that slides in the header, So fixed that. then we could hear the downpipe leaking so tightened that clamp more. Now its perfect.

    Good looking Imp. Sorry to say but needs top swap. It isn't too bad of a job if you take your time with everything.

    I have a top swap, selling it due to this imp being highmileage DD, and cant afford it if something breaks, like chipping a piston or worse.
