Is this a ploy by distributors to "control" the market and maintain a high price?Is there way to "convert" them to work in Australia, has anyone tried? There are some very smart electronic wizards out there, Im sure. The answer can't be that "it simply doesn't work because there not made for Australian cars." Perfomance or turbo cars accross the globe operate on the same principles - ecu's, tunes, etc etc.Any ideas or thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
