I'm also stoked with my tune :D Although my main concern wasn't the final dyno number, going from 137 to 170kW numbers wise is pretty impressive (dump + panel filter only)! Car loves to rev now, just hit the throttle, the turbo spools up and it's pulling like a train. Kind of blotched a take off at some lights, took off with the wheels spinning :oops:

I managed to dislodge a $2 coin that had got stuck under the handbrake boot. It's now rattling around all over the place and I still can't get at it :S LOL

Will that go back into the cash you spent on the weekend? :wink:

Haha... the tune itself has been in the budget since the week BEFORE I bought the car ;)

The half a tank of petrol on the cruise, not so much, but it was expected... it's about what I usually use.

So the first time I really got to test out the cars new found power this past weekend! On a "closed private road" a evo 8 or 7 challenged my mighty wagon :twisted: After some serious power squat I pulled a car length and continued a half a car length untill I backed off. The typical evo driver had to have the last laugh continued to power on showering my car in a cloud of turbo smoke, getting up to a stupid speed. When we stopped he couldn't believe my car was stock with a tune and catback. Even if this evo suffered from chronic turbo lag I think its still quite an achievement from a otherwise stock wagon... Matt's tune ftw 8)

That's bloody awesome mate. Impressive to be able to take on an Evo. Don't you just love the 'loser driveby'?!?!? :P
