Not sure if you will see this or not but I have just joined the forum. VERY good forum with LOTS AND LOTS of info! Loving it.I bought a 2005 BA? MKII XR6T 6 Speed Manual (82,000ks on the clock) and had it less than a month and its up to 90,000 :/Honestly best car ever made, I have drove so many cars and this tops them all. Power, comfort, luxury, practicality you name it.I love the power of it but I know I have just opened a huge black hole that my money falls down! hahaha. Cant wait to see it doing 400kw+ though and would love to come on some cruise days no matter where they are. Thought I would stop driving it around all the time by now but nope!Look forward to hearing from you all (if this thread is still active.) Any questions feel free to ask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure you need that many? Can get expensive and end in tears, especially if you get the wrong tuner.I'm sure the boys here will see you right. Just ask if you want any advice. It can be nice to learn from other's mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
