Hi Mark, Welcome to the forum. That's a nice looking Galant you picked up there.
Was it from a car yard, private sale or import? Looks like another Galant in the background.
Have fun with the purchase.

Cheers

Scott

Hey scott, thanks. yeah i brought it from a dealership, Galant wasnt on my mind for my next car, and i saw a manual silver one for sale, decided to have a look at it on my work day off, and as i walked around, this black one was hiding in the back, fell in love with it straight away and had to buy it.

So far its got a 3" jasma catback exhuast system, and im deciding to get it check out, and turn it to full 3" system. as for modification wise, where should i start from!?!

Welcome and beautiful car!

Black Galant, manual, sunroof, with cream leather interior?! Can't ask for much more than that!

Hey Mark, sweet ride
A bit of a mod guidline - full exhaust > big intercooler + piping > boost controller (+ metal bov to hold the boost) > flash tune (get rid of the SAFC you can get your factory ECU flashed). After that things will get more serious, bigger turbos, injectors, fuel pumps etc
Suspension and brake upgrades are always good ideas and can be done at any stage of modding.

I had my exhaust done down at Autotainment in Burswood. 9470 4233. Ask for Glenn. He might be able to help you out with something like that. I think he still works there. Tell him Scott said hi.
I put on a set of RPW front pipes myself then had Glenn put a 3" cat & full 3" mild steel system with a Magnaflow muffler & 1 resonator in there. Mine was the first one that he did for these car's and i am sure he has done a few of the other car's on here as well.

Cheers

Hi Mark,

Excellent example of a Galant you have there! Hope to see you around the streets of Perth, you SOR or NOR?

For mufflers I recommend going to Peter at
Carline Perth
404 Newcastle Street, West Perth, WA, 6005
Phone: 892283244

Hes a top bloke and really honest, so honest that he'll let you take the car after the work is done without paying *freaking crazy, who does that nowadays!?* and come back when you are happy with the service. Hes a one man shop so he can be pretty busy, but i'll definitely be back.
