For servicing your car or modding it in TAS, Howell Automotive is the go I would say, Pro Automotive does mainly holdens / V8's, I went in and had a chat to the guys there and they weren't too confident about the XR6T, so I'd say stick with Howell, they have a clean looking workshop and are more focussed on Turbo cars and they have the CAPA software, I heard someone with an XR6 Turbo ute got 350rwkw out of Howell recently??. Ultimately if you want a good safe tune by the experts, take the trip on the boat to VIC and get it done right, there are MANY reputable tuners on the mainland, I currently am running a Horsepower Factory tune and I have been very happy with it, but there are many others like Pitlane Performance (where I will be taking my car next), G&D, CV Performance, and a whole range of others whom I probably have left out (sorry).Good luck with the cars guys, and if you arent too sure on what mods to get or your new to turbo cars, jump over to the site sponsors section on here and look for for Rapid Systems and read his thread on how to make a quick XR6 Turbo, it is a post I wish I had read before I modded my car as I would have probably made more power, had the car looking and sounding better, and still saved money.F6T the trip to VIC would be awesome as that is where I am from, but I wont have the $$$ this side of xmas, so you'll have to count me out. I'm still dying to see your car since you got it back too.I'm also pretty sure I found another forum member the other night too, and seen it again last night, purple T with stickers of stars of the back window??
