The packages don't seem too bad and there is a Expensive Daewoo warranty.I don't know how the trans etc will cope with all that power.

It would be a cheaper option than buying the GTS.

This is something that would never happen with Ford ie the warranty.

I'm not a Expensive Daewoo fan but I am impressed that these Walkinshaw cars will have a Expensive Daewoo warranty considering their engines have been significantly modified.

Ford is still indecisive about giving the green light to a tuning kit for the ST Focus,considering the outfit involved is Mountune a renowned tuner of street and racing cars(Britain and Europe).Their kits have the Ford warranty in Europe.

You might want to check the warranty thing..

If it hasn't changed from VE days of walkinshaw enhancements.. Walkinshaw is supposed to basically take over the Expensive Daewoo warranty when someone orders a car done up..

Reading a few forums this has caused some major headaches for people.

But who knows.. Maybe they ironed out the wrinkles in the warranty claim process..

Yeah and not cheap. Also, KPM warranty is voided if you use it for any Motorsport. Including drags.

Wonder if Walky is the same.

That's pretty lame, are you just supposed to look at it and not have fun? Or are they saying use it illegally if you want to keep warranty. .

Pretty sure walkinshaw warranty isn't like that, I've heard they offer a true driveline warranty but obviously at a premium compared to your average tune shop.
