It's nice to know .....'Someone Cares' (I'm getting all misty now)......more Boags will fix that! :blink:

Boags? You have BOAGS? :blink:

Less than a thousand k's to go. I hope this is right as I'll be getting mine done in a few weeks.

I just look for a place to pull up occasionaly & put a load on that awesome convertor, god it's fun. It will turn the tyres all the way accross a large intersection.

So........it's NOT the Castrol I put in at 7000km :blink: :D

It could be...that's what they put in my beast...Castrol Magnatek.

I just took the car for a spin and I am sure that it was not so easy to break traction before and the T/C seems less intrusive now.....either that or I had never put the pedal all the way to the floor before :blink: :lol: :lol:

Tend to agree richdave, I thought there might have been something wrong with the TC cutting in more often (when I forget to switch it off :D )

But the 'hawk definately seems to be more responsive. Will have to slip her onto a dyno and see if it is true or my imagination :thumbsup:

Well today I got the "proof" I needed. The wife took the car for a spirited drive today....on her way to church (no pun intended). Took off like a deamon and when she returned she tells me the car goes harder than it used to :huh:

So that the final word as far as I'm concerned until and unless FOMOCO make an official statement on this matter... :lol: :lol:

My dealer tells me that the change in performance may be due to a software upgrade done at service. :unsure:

I'll try and get some more info....
