mullygrub Donating Members 25 Member For: 13y 3m 2d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 04/10/11 05:28 AM Share Posted 04/10/11 05:28 AM A friend has offered me his SCT x3 for $150, he had a bf2 turbo as do I, just wondering is it worth it or should I buy new. I realize it needs to be sent to capa for reprogramming ect (haven't looked into it too much ie. cost wize) and yes I am only after a generic tune at the minute.

Also generic tunes can be dangerous as they are not specifically tailored to your car. If you are not going to get a custom tune you will be better off keeping it standard.

I have mixed thoughts on why they say that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
