djqc Member 291 Member For: 14y 11m 15d Posted 23/09/12 08:29 AM Posted 23/09/12 08:29 AM car is moddedRatter, would there be any telling signs that the car has been returned to the stock tune before selling, other than putting the car on a dyno? I believe that these mods on a factory tune can cause all sorts of drama, and the flash tuner wasn't sold with the car. Is it correct that the flash tuner is only able to be used elsewhere if the factory tune is loaded back into the car before selling the flash box off? Would hate for the car to be over boosting on a stock tune because the previous owner wanted to make an extra few $$ by selling the flash box separately

If you can smell unburnt fuel at idle you shouldn't drive it. Overboost with that cat for sure. Edited 23/09/12 08:36 AM by Paulie2256

djqc Member 291 Member For: 14y 11m 15d Posted 23/09/12 11:22 PM Posted 23/09/12 11:22 PM So it's likely that the car was sold tuned, but without the flash tuner. That's a bit of a bummer
