I found they were in pretty bad condition at manheim when I was looking to buy one 2 months back, heaps of dings, scratches, wearing etc. Ended up finding a pretty good one at pickles auctions but they dont stock many.

Btw I spent $3500 getting the car to 285rwkw included a xcal/tune, cat, injectors, herrod CAI & Herrod intercooler piping.

Since then I replaced the stock intercooler with a rapid V2 which should see it somewhere around 300

P-plate restrictions not an issue for you I guess?

I'd certainly recommend waiting a bit, not only for you to save for the mods and potential breakages but also to let you get used to the vehicle first. The FGs are dangerous enough in inexperienced hands stock.

Did you get your ticking noise sorted as posted elsewhere?

not yet, it's an odd one, sometimes it's there, then goes away

another suggestion would be to sort out any possible pre-existing issues before you even think about tuning.

Just wire up the cop chip.. They always disconnect the power cable after leaving the force
