Trying to think what I can do to it next. Ive alredy done the Replacement K&N Panel Filter and Removed the Stock Exaust and Cat with a 2.25" Stanless System with a 21" Long Coby and 2.5" Straight Through HSV V8 Muffler.

Very good plug in system. Hook it up and your away :D. Apparently up to 25% increase from 1-5k rpm. If its even 10% i say its worth it. Dont expect too much from the poor little 5afe, they wern't exactly built with performance in mind... more, economy 8).

I know of a Wreaker that only wreaks Jap Performance Parts so Im gonna go see what I can find and what will fit. If I cant find much I might get a 4AGE Silver Top 20v if my Budget can afford it but I am a Student so might have 2 keep the 5AFE.

actually your quite right matt.
i just jumped upstairs to my toyota parts bin and check a 7a manifold to a 20v head.
the ports don't line up
my bad

still a well thought out set of extactors will help a complete conversion will yield far better results for a little more cost

Went to see the Wreakers and like you said 20v Extracyors dont fit. He had a look around to see if he had a 7afe set but he didn't.

The best place to look for performance parts for a 5afe would be america as they rarely get 'ge' models (4age, 3sge). I've seen complete turbo kits for 4afe's, 5afe's and 7afe's and theres probably heaps of other performance parts avaliable.
