Ah ok, nearly £3000 with headers and exhaust.
Worth every penny m8.
Stock Monaro = Sounds V8ish
Monaro with exhaust = That sounds nice
Monaro with headers = I just made a mess

Ah, in that case no it won't sound as good. A mate has one with Wortec exhaust and supercharger, last time I spoke to him he was indeed gonna get the headers. Its the headers that give that real OMG get out of the way angry sound.
Headers
No headers

I thought one of the plus points bounded around about LS Series engines is that they were "cheap" to tune?
I haven't heard that before. The supercharger kit is over £6000 fitted.
Do it.

Right then, my nominee for 'shed of the year'
As bought in 2004 for £250, well a couple of hours after it was bought and i'd started pulling the (knackered) gearbox out...
Including buying it, getting it roadworthhy/mot'ing it and 6 months tax (and a full leather interior from the scrappy when i got another box) i think it cost me just under £500 to get it on the road.
And taken the other day...
Since i bought it, its had another gearbox, and this years mot required a pair of balljoints, secondhand strut top mounts, a secondhand backbox (mine fell off, just as i drove into the yard at work much to everyones amusement!) and i splashed out on a new genuine Renault tankstrap. Cost per week over the years, pence i would guess...although its a lot more pink now than the photo makes it look!.

I've got to be in the running for the wooden spoon.
Either that or I'd nominate Dead Dog's turbo's beetle.
