The right tuner really pays off in the end.I'd hate to See you get burned again mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would hate to see you f*cked over again... Well can't get anymore screwed then what you already have been, but paying more money and taking a stab that it will be fixed is silly :/ forYour sake I hope all goes well. I've been around and thankfully haven't been done over like you have. But for you what is needed is a tuner who specializes in zf tuning for those zf boxes or else that new zf won't last a month.Also I would suggest getting a fullCheck over on anything that greasy c0ck touched. Speak to the guy your heading to and make sure he's confident with zf tuning and these motors, if he isn't 100% confident don't waste anymore time and money go straight to Cms 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have spent more than what you would have spent if you had stayed where you were.All you probably need now is a good tune.Take it back to Spiro and get him to look over it. He would no doubt remember you and understand the situation your in.I know he's not the cheapest but at least you know you wont get ripped off and you'll be in good handsMy 2c Edited 01/10/14 12:59 AM by rednose 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive been to springwood car care as they were closer for me but realised they had very little knowledge of the barra engine and went back to Autotech. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
