I have had it flashed back to stock for the moment as I wasn't happy with the tune.....initial throttle response was terrible and they used the HP tuning system so I'm going to go with the xcal this time around.....much better from what Mick from Pitlane and Simon from Nizpro have told me. Just in two minds as to which tuner I will go with.....both are very reputable tuners so either way I can't go wrong and thier results speak for themselves. Who are you using for your tume mate?ImO I would go mick at put lane ... Done a freaking awesome job on mine .... And it's a safe tune .. 445kw with herrods bolt ons ... It really is surprisingly quick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had my son with me - and his reply - 'just nail it - get that supercharged spooled up and you won't hear the fans'... hahah .Yes they are loud !!!

At least you haven't had a police officer ask you if you've been giving it a bit of a boot full...cause he expressed some interest as to why my fans were running so hard Edited 31/01/13 11:47 PM by southside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
