You know what Bryce? I keep telling you my tune isn't urgent, but all this positive feedback you guys are getting is making me impatient! :lol:

Had my tune done today on my Gen 5 wagon and can only agree with all the positive comments. Matt knows his stuff back to front and is more than happy to explain the reasons and benefits of what he's doing. The way this guy operates seriously makes me think this guy see's the world in 1's and 0's... Matrix style.

Couldn't agree more!
I had a tune done on my MY10 2.5 N/A wagon this evening and am very impressed with Matt's knowledge as well as his openness. I could see everything he was doing and he was happy to explain things where I had questions. Enjoyed the experience and now looking forward to enjoying my car. Will post again on how things are after observing for a week. For now, I can feel smoother power and torque across a wider rev range. :)

Writing the definition file in the carpark was definitely fun! SI Drive Boost controller working well I assume?

Thanks for meeting up with me, again writing a definition file to be able to tune the car was half of the fun! The CVT obviously enjoyed the smoother shifts as well!

I had my car tuned previously by another tuner, and had it retuned this morning by Matt, and im really surprised in the difference. He showed me the maps I had from the previous tuner which was running pretty rich. Now it is running leaner and has more power in it… that I can actually feel! :D

Few things I noticed on the drive to work this morning.
*The car does not jerk when driving slow up and around my car park at work, and much more smoother to drive.
*fuel consumption has dropped (usually around 13.8)
*the DBW delay is gone.
Which were the main things that were annoying me with this car. Now I can look forward to not selling it and keeping it.

Matt really knows his stuff.

Cheers again mate.

Judging by this post it was MSR

I think that when you accidentally had the car in 5th gear and you thought we were doing a 3rd gear pull with the way the car accelerated :lol:
