Was just wondering if anybody had any advice or hints to help out:...
ive got a BA series XT and want to start doing some mods on it. First i want to do the induction and exhaust system from the extractors thru to the end. What products and parts should i be going for? What extractors should i put on? I was advised on pacemakers but theyre not stainless steel is that a problem for wear and tear? :?:

Hey mate, try this combo out for size:

Typhoon airbox/snorkel/lower duct
K&N panel filter
2.5" Redback, high flow cat, Pacemaker headers

(don't worry about stainless steel headers)

Pacemaker extractors are the way to go for performance, also use K&N induction stuff, ive heard good stuff about them, and exhaust wise, go for a Redback 2.5'' system with one muffler, sounds nice :wink:

You can also look at the larger rip off price snorkels. Such as Aunger and SS. SS Inductions now do a replacement ar filter box too, converts it to pod style. Bloody exy but.

I have Lukey Zorst, SS Inductions CAI and king dragon Panel filter... i would go for the K & N filter tho... they seem to be more sturdy for performance boost..

I was going to suggest the typhoon air box and snorkle with a redback exhaust and pacemaker headers. Lukey headers are good despite what people say.Some poeple think that they restrict too much but really it only makes a difference when you get into the high performance and high power out put. Even at that stage it will only rob you of 1-4rwkw
