    Default brands/styles of chips

    Hey guys, I just bought a 96 vs berlina 5.0 auto,
    I just wanted to see if its worth getting a chip/tune for it,
    Its got pacemaker extractors, thru to a 2 1/2 inch exhaust,
    Going to be installing 3.9 diff gears with a mini spool, also waiting to go in is a transpak kit and a corvette servo.

    Any reccomendations of brands/people who custom make chips.

    Thanks!

    my local fish and chip store does em perfect, crispy with a light covering of chicken salt

    but seriously, greenfoam (nicefrog on ebay) is the man for Holden V8 tunes

    There are some sellers on ebay who sell some questionable tunes and some who sell others work and a few who basically sell HSV tunes.

    Well from what I could gather when I started trying to get a tune way back, he was getting pounded with e mails from heaps of people and some people were ragging on him etc. So he straight up stopped doing the tunes because of how many people were harassing him for them, so he changed his email etc. and only recently started putting them up on eBay again. Of course that may not be the whole story, thats just what I gathered while trying to find him, and of course I was trying to find him as well so I'm no better, but everyone raves about the tunes, so why wouldn't I try, and what can I say I'm very happy with the tune.

    some shit went down ages ago but probably not worth rehashing it. don't harass the guy and you'll get one ( a tune that is) eventually
