well I'll throw some pics up of my Senator to give you guys and idea of what we get over here, this guy is running a bit late.
For those that are unaware the Senator is the luxury short wheelbase HSV model. Mine has all the performance options that are standard on the Clubsport R8 as well as a few tweaks of my own, like the intake and custom short shifter its a 99 model as was the same era as the original GTO design. The rear lights on my car were actually the same as the prototype GTO. I still think they should have used them instead of what they ended up with. What do you guys think.

Is there really a gain of H.P. for the O.T.R.C.A.I.? I have heard mixed reveiws about it, and it's so expensive to get one over here($600 U.S.). I do like the car, but not a fan of the hitch.

Yeah I bought the car with the Hitch and if I removed it now I'd have a dirty big hole in my bar. The neck does come off which leaves a cleaner look but meh its my daily not a show car, and as a result must do some hauling duties. I have a Subaru Outback also, but that thing can't tow large loads. The Senator pulls no worries and being 1800 odd kg makes it pretty stable too.
