Okay, now I'm definitely intrigued and very interested...

Any stops in Canberra coming up (or how long in Sydney late January with any possibility of fitting in an auto Gen V depending on dates)?

Will PM separately re mods, prices, etc
2011 Gen5 Liberty GT (auto), STi front lip and trunk spoiler, Sports mesh grille, lowered and improved handling (more to come), Full X-Force 3" exhaust, King alloys - KiDo (Matt) Tune, Imported DRLs, Corazon Big Scoop - and loving it!! Hmmm, May need a bigger Turbo next :)

Thought I should post some feedback on my tune. When I bought the car recently I was not planning on modifying or tuning it (already have a highly modified G1S2 Legacy GT). The GTB is stock standard and although I was stoked with the car and stock power, I was disappointed with the power delivery being interrupted by an intermittent hesitation which I since learned to be a standard feature. I was very lucky to hook up with Matt for a couple of hours over Xmas break and he loaded the base tune and did some road tune tweaks. Matt clearly knows what he is doing with these cars. He smoothed out the torque curve, brought on boost earlier and re-tuned all three maps. Peak boost has only changed in S# by 0.5-1psi. Car is now smoother, more responsive and faster. I would highly recommend the tune and now I am convinced I need a dump pipe and rear sway bar and then I will leave the car alone :wink:. See you at Easter hopefully Matt.

A few sensible mods and tuned by Matt (Kido).

Pretty much my experience, Shaheenis.
Having gone that path and just a little further (pump & mid) I say just find some awesome muffs and leave Matt's tune and the car alone.
Its a great combo that barely needs any improvement, IMHO...

But seriously who could stop themselves going a bit more? :P

That is precisely my issue mate. I only wanted to do minimal things to my car and here I am looking for more power and better handling.
