Ive had a friend who had tuned a fg xr6t manual. They misquoted him, Terrible tune and couldnt set the car up properly....Intune, well email tunes aka ping tune...

Will shred tyres Anybody else in Sydney - don't even bother ** ^^ all of the above is from other people's experiences, not my own. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading the forums will get you a pretty good idea of people in your area with success stories (and some with disasters)By the time it came for me to make a move towards modding I had a pretty good idea of what shop I'd be trusting to send it too - then some face time with the tuner and all was good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get to doing as much research and reading people's testimonials. Man it's a good thing this topic was brought up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were very serious on this recommendation..its not personal opinion like the tail lights for example.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
