Posted 05/07/04 04:13 AM Share Posted 05/07/04 04:13 AM Well it is good to see that nothing has changed here! Just different protagonists!Who cares if you are a Nizpro or APS fan. Do your own research, get your mods done and be happy that we live in a country that allows us our own decisions AND opinions. Yes, I have APS and are VERY happy with the product and just as importantly the people I have dealt with there. I did my research before getting anything done, and after I narrowed it down to two tuners, the deciding factor was the people I spoke to! When I rang Nizpro, the person I spoke to was a Turkey, (in my opinion) and I knew right then that they were getting none of my money, simple. Others have obviously liked this person and are happy to hand over their hard earned. Isn't life wonderful! I also liked the fact that the APS operation was HUGE, (they have the best workshop and most knowledgable staff I have ever seen, and are a massive international company, not just a local tuner) and I think this is important IF you have any problems as the cost to fix things will be a small figure to a big company and a large figure to a smaller company and more likely to be disputed. It's called "piece of mind".To anyone wanting advice on which tuner to choose I say this. GO AND SEE THEM,and TALK TO THEM and go with who you feel comfortable with after seeing their operation and talking to the people who you will be dealing with. That's what I did, and I couldn't be happier! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can any of the Ford boys here confirm or even explain the difference between the standard ones and LPG? To have such a variation in price is rediculous!
