The ute is excelent

does not even drive like a ute

I've allready put a cold air intake, BMC filter, Helix spacer and a set of under drive pullies on it.
It will get a set of extractors and high flow cats in a few months (thinking of leaving the standard exhaust on though ) and then getting the computer edited.
It made 229 rwkw, but there's a guy getting 299.8 with just bolts ons and edit
