New owner has had it retuned by a not so well known tuner down south and it came on hard and fast and he loves it that way as it frys the tyres easier and went on about how much better this tune was compared to the old one. I didnt bother to let him know it was tuned previously how I wanted it tuned, I just nodded and said FANTASTIC!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get your tuner to test the exhaust, and from what I understand they should be able to tell if valve springs are going soft. If you really want 400 ask the tuner exactly what they think it is and if you're keen to go ahead get them to start testing things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good idea mate to get them to test the exhaust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
