Good move , man they are also a good investment , they do go well if you get a 69mm throttle first though and the tune to suit

Don't really have lots of $$$ to go spending on my car at the moment. How much more would i be getting out of it by getting the 69mm TB with the tune and what sort of difference would i feel?

The tune helps out the throttle body as without it the transmission plays up , it's not a mind blowing difference but certainly noticeable

For the money, I recon the tune is great. Just put one in my vt wagon, a little more power everywhere, the shifts are a little bit better, and there is a noticeable increase in economy under the same driving conditions (10-15%, but haven't done enough to calculate for sure yet). As I tow some large loads with my car, I am stoked with the improvements as it makes the car tow so much easier

That's really good :) as I use my ute for towing a lot (horse floats), have increased payload for the rear suspension as well. But also love to go for a good drive and like having some good grunt when I put my foot down.
