They just make a 9.2:1 and 8.2:1 both are the same price I went through all this thinking I would fit one in the Forester


Sorry would now be around $10000 + freight not $15000

Just putting it out there that Buddah knows his stuff guys we shouldn't question his vast knowledge and contribution to this forum.

Please stop and just bask in the wisdom that permeates each and every response Buddah so generously and elequoently relays to us

This is made abundantly clear in the substantial advice he provides to forum members on all things mechanical, life and otherwise. Without question this is always correct and has been of utmost assistance to many including myself. So please. Lets respect what he is saying here.

Thank you guys.

Even with my hookups I doubt you could afford a good second hand one on a Corporate bankers wage maybe when you get a good productive real job like stacking shelve at Coles or bludge one ? you would be good at that .

OP: I am booked out for next 3 months in Sydney with a waiting list. Probably wont work for you on that time frame but as always, I am happy to load on a comparison tune to show the other side of the fence a some point in the future

Because I and a lot of others are more than happy with their service . Everyone in this type of industry has a problem from time to time MRT may have more only because they have built a hell of a lot more over many years so averages are against them . And whenever the name MRT comes up on the forum a wood duck will raise its head and bag them out because they read it on a forum and they feel good they had a say . :wink:


I have 142 MRT tunes on my laptop... why do you think that is Buddah? Doubling highway fuel economy seems to work, plus fixing the auto gearboxes ;)
