Easy to add - get actuator, brake switch, clutch switch if manual, wiper stalk and plug it in ;) (your 3.0l is the older non drive-by-wire, so doesn't need enabling in ECU)

tbh i couldnt give an honest answer because i fitted it the day i picked it up so i dont know what figures she was giving before. I had fitted it to a Vectra GSI i had before Meg and it did improve slightly. On Meg though i love it for the sound, although it was louder on the vec because of a twin exit ss exhaust.
