But as far as I am aware, he isn't even a member here.He just lets the figures, and word of mouth do the talking. And hence why he has a fantastic name around here.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Very well said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johng001 Member 192 Member For: 20y 9m 20d Location: Melb Posted 10/04/05 11:40 PM Author Share Posted 10/04/05 11:40 PM Picked up my car from HPF Today after having the edit and trans cooler done yesterday. Wow what a difference. For the record my car is a standard auto apart from xr8 air filter and second intake. Standard it ran just on 190rwkw after the tune 240.5rwkw. The differance driving is amazing. The power delivery is so much smoother (and more of it), transmission shifts are crisper also. From 3000RPM It just pulls hard all the way to the red line. I also had a transmission cooler fitted just for insuance.The guys (and girl) at HPF Were great to deal with. I asked about the problem with the TC and they said they were aware of the problem, have told Cappa about it and are waiting for a fix. The TC On mine switches itself if you accelerate hard and brake traction, TC Light flashes then stays on. After the first day of driving I can say I'm more than happy with the result. <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Nice ResultWhat type of transmission cooler did they fit? What did it cost? I'm planning on doing the same but maybe adding injectors depends on what type of bonus I get in the next few months from work. Wish I lived in Melb for the tuners, but your weather suxs <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Price for the cooler was $480.00 fitted. Not what brand it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordak Member 1,226 Member For: 20y 8m 15d Posted 10/04/05 11:56 PM Share Posted 10/04/05 11:56 PM Not an issue - The main purpose of this forum, as I see it, is for members to share worthwhile information. No difference between a member stating that they are happy with their tyre choice as opposed to giving their chosen tuner a good wrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB Forum Superhero Donating Members 3,109 Member For: 21y 2m 29d Location: Eastern Suburbs of Mexico Posted 11/04/05 09:03 AM Share Posted 11/04/05 09:03 AM Obviously some people miss the point that the forum is about sharing information. Just think to yourself the first question people ask you when they know you have had mods done to your car... "wheredidyagetitdone?" The fact that you cannot talk literally on a forum you type, means that things appear open to the public which becomes replicated numerous times by different people, in which you would never hear about in general conversation as you are not open to the public listening in.I have learnt alot from this forum, which has assisted me in getting my car to a stage I love, with this then comes the sharing of not only the information I know but also the information I have learnt as I have progressed with my own car. Part of this information is sharing it with fellow members, in particular newer ones who have alot of questions as I did the first day I arrived here.If people have an issue with members mentioning successful experiences with certain compaines, then I will just keep all my knowledge to myself, and become one of those complete tossers, that thinks by not telling you what I have done to my car, that I am some sort of hero with my quick moddified car. You will never be as quick or know what I have done because I am ace with my sercret squirrel ..............Lets have a forum like that shall we?

Miyagi fordxr5turbodotcom Member 892 Member For: 21y 4m 14d Gender: Male Location: Point Cook, Vic Posted 11/04/05 12:14 PM Share Posted 11/04/05 12:14 PM It's certainly interesting to hear some responses based on my couple of posts.I have a great deal of respect for those who have shared a great deal of information with us all on the forums. Please don't think I have some kinda of vendetta against HPF, I would / will infact, based on the recommendations of those on these forums, consider going to the them when I finally finish building this house and have some spare cash!GEEA, it's obvious your a pretty intelligent individual and I've directly benefitted from your knowledge and ability to actually string a sentence together. Hence, there would be no way I'd put you on ignore.JB - good point, I'll take my sad panda hat off and try to lighten up a little... hrmmm... maybe I just need to tap the g/f on the shoulder a little more often Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
