Its luck of the boxs really..... oh and the car has just clocked over 60,000kms and my tuner has also frimed up my shifts too. I recommend getting a cooler first as they are a fairly cheap mod to start with. cheers Ryan Edited 04/08/07 01:29 AM by sleeper69 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
