Nice! So what of your 2.5" Ultrex mufflers? We may need to make that catch up happen, I'd be keen to see how they fit on the wagon

Original post updated.

Update - STI quads installed, KiDo tune has been done. Can't say anymore about Matt...simply a delight to drive now.

I'll be interested for this review.

Yeh no worries James. Happy for you to drive and review it. Bear in mind though I've never really driven a tuned car so my perception could be very far from expectations haha. So I will learn from you guys on refining it if needed. But so far it suits me. I'll see how it drives in morning jams on Roe.

not a pressured review! just wanna see how it goes! So far only been in Jarred and Adams Liberty!

haha noted. I will see how she drives on Wednesday in mad traffic

Interesting to see what the fuel economy will be...though with a heavy foot there probably wont be any

Its been about 2 tanks of fuel since the tune. Since I had the ultrex setup I've been doing mostly 10.4-10.6 in normal non-spirited drives.
This last week I've TRIED to be civil (its hard to)...but so far the counter is sitting at 10. Bearing in mind its a mix of highway and jammed up driving at tonkin etc.
Still using S mode for the daily drive. for cruising i did switch to I mode a few times here and there. Getting the car up to speed (60) or to freeway speeds is just so much smoother and effortless so even if the fuel consumption didn't change much I'd still be happy.

But S sharp is defs the most fun. just goes!!

Now for some handling mods...my brother and taylor have suggested front and rear sways, anti lift kits.

Liking the idea of s-techs..but with stock wheels..idk. somewhat...looks odd when lowered...wheels just sit..a bit too far "in" for my liking.. would spacers work??

Ah need to get the kido tune done so bad!!! All the responses of joy are getting me down :lol:

How'd the remote tune work for you? Easy enough to get through it all?

Also rear sway, links and lift kit make a huge difference! All mine are installed now and corners are so much fun

Now you have the power, you need the car to handle.
