Looking forward to seeing the gains and a rough idea of final costs... I have a DIY cold air intake and looking in to exhaust options so this would be a natural progression to those mods.

Wonder if they have a branch here in NZ?
Now I know why people reckon I'm tight!
Dazz if you watched someone do a complete re map of an EFI motor you would see just how long it takes. you have to go up in stages of throttle % do a map then up to next stage you dyno test as you go up, would take a full day to do a complete map. if motor controlled by FBW you have to know how to set up for that too. but with FBW you can get fantastic results. just PIB if there is a problem with FBWgood luck with it , Craig post up report after its all done.i watched a friend who lives in the country. hook up this AFR gizmo he got when he was over USA at a performance industry Show, it also hooked up to his lap top, he welded a bung in his exhaust put in sensor, then drove up a big hill. it recorded everything. we went back played it back told a lot of useful info, almost like your own dyno. but would need a big hill & no traffic as well.
$1100 is a good price for an ECU out reprogramming. Lucky for them the ECU is nice and easy to get to.

I kind of understand, but I'm gunna keep the $1100 for when LG brings out a 65" OLED Ultra HD TV with HDR for around $3000 ...
When do you get to use UHD TV though
Its just a TV.I'd prefer to spend the $1100 on the car then go driving, see the country.
TV sound's great Dazz, but one large TV same as another to me.just sitting watching TV not real exciting,What sort of power useage will new TV consume? ( alway's wondered what a PC & a TV use, or how much they impact on power bill )??
O The HDR & CR are OLED properties aren't they. I agree, OLED's are excellent
