Prove It Member 198 Member For: 16y 7m 19d Gender: Male Posted 14/10/08 01:28 PM Share Posted 14/10/08 01:28 PM ask how many have done it and you won't see many raised hands as that money will get you more power spent elsewhere,but the main thing is a few years ago a mate did it in his T and the idle became sh ithouse.......not enough mass to smooth it out apparently,don't want to be a know all just trying to helpYeah cheers man, I dunno though cos dennis said it was worth upgrading it and since I know sweet FA about manual it seemed worth it lol to be honest I think it came in the Ceramic kit that dennis is throwin in the car. I hate bein told different things by different people. I have no idea as it is and when I think ive learnt something, turns out I havent And yeah dennis is still down there, I chose him cos firstly he did ash's car and that thing is mental. secondly, he is about a 5 min walk from my house so gettin it there and back isnt an issue and thirdly, the guys down there are great and they try and teach me stuff where they can to help me understand the mods better.

Prove It Member 198 Member For: 16y 7m 19d Gender: Male Posted 15/10/08 12:54 PM Share Posted 15/10/08 12:54 PM I heard the same thing about Bruce but when I took his quote to dennis, he not only matched it..he bet it so I didnt really see the point in driving over an hour when I can wlk 5 mins. Plus Bruce doesnt talk much. He didnt seem to want to explain all these mods he was telling me to get whereas the guys at boostin oz were happy to take 5 to take me thru wat would be happeneing to my car. which is good considering I know sweet FA about them at this stage lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Donating Members 23,708 Member For: 16y 8m Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 16/10/08 06:03 AM Share Posted 16/10/08 06:03 AM holey sh!t that's the most ive ever seen u type in 1 post bloostiehahaha definately all valid points iam so in the same basket as u mr psi I knew f*ck all and still only know a little bit but I only wanted to pay once so to speak I have had 1st hand experiance with ppl telling u what works and u go with it and they never tryed it themselves. I think that's what sold it for me was the sheer amount of cars that have gone through bruse and high recomendations I mean if a bloke is gunna let bruse have the keys to a 60000 dollar typhoon with complete confidance I couldnt go wrong and its not just 1 bloke stacks have supported bruses work wich is great to see.so like most iam only happy to put my hard earned coin into security and when I spoke to bruse (alough quiet) he didnt hide anything or tell me inflated stories just honest truth as in where my dollar is best spent at the power iam aming for. I suppose that's all we can ask for is honest good work until we can do this kind of work our selves and tune like pros -its gunna be a very long wait for me hahahahahahahope we can see some good comparisons between companys and share vital info between us the consumer!
