There are many more component options around today to get your desired power levels and suit your requirements at a lower cost level. Not sure why you’d go with BTA as a choice in Sydney. They would rank below Autotech, C&V and Tunehouse, who have far more experience in Sydney (and these are our forum advertisers that we support), and who have been tuning our Ford turbo cars for 7 years now.IMO, you’re much better staying in your own state, for continuing support, and there are competent tuners in Qld.IMO, for your requirements, tuning capability and good customer service are more important than which IC, exhaust, or plenum you may chose, for which you have many options, and a good workshop should be able to give you the advice you need. Even a full 4” exhaust is overkill for what you require, although quite often once we get used to a power level you tend to want more.Don’t ignore suspension and brakes, and be more careful in the wet.Brian

Posted 12/02/10 09:32 AM Posted 12/02/10 09:32 AM getting a tune done in another state when you have the option of getting a tune done in your own is absolutely ridiculous. I had the choice of 2 sydney tuners, one 20mins drive and the other 1 hour drive, with very little in price difference. I chose the cheaper one but cost me more in time due to having to go back to the tuner 4 times after that to fix up little issues with the tune. Each 1 hour drive I was cursing the tuner for being that much further away.I couldnt imagine if he lived 1000ks away and had to fix and diagnose problems that far away

But what if this happened with the turner that is 20 min away and u had to go back n forth when the 1 who is an hour away has a better turner u only have to get the job done once . But with what ever way u go I hope it go's good for u mate even to better turner make mistakes
