Just a" heads up".  I had the y pipe mod done & did notice a slight difference. It was getting into 6th a lot quicker though.

The biggest change was when I recently combined this with a high flow rear cat & 2 Berklee anti drone sports mufflers. You can only just notice a slight difference in sound at idle & even higher in the revs but is it way smoother & a great power increase.

I am not sure about fuel economy yet but definitely worth it in seat of the pants power uptake and free revving.

 I know the Mitsubishi 380/Magna's  3.8/3.5 were getting 7kw from this mod and have used it on them in the past.

Does anyonr have the link for this mod? I am booked in to get it done in the morning and have lost the info.

I had mine replaced at 105k, my mechanic said they usually do 150k km easy. At 105k km the plugs looked  nearly new. 

Off topic but has anyone put a transmission cooler in? I have bought one some time ago & want to fit it soon. Do you add more oil for the extra capacity of the cooler? 

The front strut brace finally arrived and has been on for 6 weeks, It does not make the same difference as the rear bar or 245 18's but it does help. The car handles way better than stock now. Looking at Caster urethane bushes, double offset next. I am happy with the struts & springs at 120k at this stage.

I doubt it G. I believe the thicker sway bar would help keep it more level during cornering, less roll. Suspension is a difficult area to master, and it can get quite expensive if you get it wrong. There is a fine line between strut and sway bar management and if you have the time and money, I'm sure one can find the sweet spot.

For me, I'm happy with the stock set up. The car drives and rides nicely, especially with new tyres and that's really good enough for me. If anything, I'd probably consider upgrading the sway bars and keep the stock struts.

I have had the rear Ultra racing 19mm sway bar on for 2 weeks & highly recommend it. I too want to stick to stock struts as well, a great improvement in body roll with the sway bar.  

I have an ATX, I just put the Ultra racing rear sway bar on & you do notice a definite difference, not as much as the tyre and wheel upgrade but it sits flatter through corners and roundabouts. I could not fit the strut brace as they sent the wrong one. Ultra Racing are getting their new batch in this month so I will fit it as see if it makes any difference. 

I have just bought the Ultra racing Strut Brace & 19mm Rear Sway bar & about to fit them. I am already running 18x8 245/40/18 Tyres. I am interested in the double offset kit. I am about to fit the Brace & Sway bar to see the difference.
