Cheers Leigh.

CAPA distribute the Edit in Australia, but there are many workshops that do the custom tuning.Where abouts are you? People here will be able to point you in the right direction if you want the custom tune, or even if you just want a box with generic tunes mailed out.Edit should definately be right at the top of any mod list.

06/05/06 12:57 AM06/05/06 12:57 AM #9 Is phase one a CAPA product (they're in Adelaide)? I'd have a looksee at some of the workshops you've got available in Melb if you want to go beyond Edit.Names like Nizpro, HP-F (horsepower factory) etc are worthy of an enquiry to name a couple.As for driveline warranty, you throw it out the window as soon as you mod. Now if you've got stock hardware you can flash the factory and custom program back and forth any time. Though you've technically voided your warranty by using Edit, the 'honesty' factor you choose to apply is of course up to you.
