I have just installed a tune from Nigel and it by far superseds the other tunes I have had, I am about to install a recond auto box so I hope things improve even further.
The only thing that I have notice (witch I think is my fault) is the fuel economy is down a bit but thats probably due to the fact that I am enjoying the extra push back in the seat from any where in the rev range and the gear changes are higher to (which could be due to my trans being almost f%^&ed.

its a shame that there is not a lot available for the VZ SV6 Alloytec , only the one which requires the removal of PCM and sent away to be re-tuned .

these things arn't easy to reverse eng. You could always buy your own HP Tuners or similar single licence.

haha yeh I know :doh:, it's just crazy how little amount of right foot is needed now to get moving, it's crazy as it feesl like I am only just cracking the pedal and I'm gone, I would not even get close to using 1/4 throttle around town any more.

I love the fact that the thermo fan comes on heaps earlier now to, it used to get to 1/2 gauge before it came on but now it's just above the first small line above cold.

the gear changes are great, I am noticing it holding out in first when cold which will be sorted in the next week when the new box goes in but other than that it's great.

before installing your tune I notice even when sitting in park and I just give it a slight jab it would hesitate then rev up but now its just instantly alive,

Great job Nigel:beer chug:

personal preference if the shifts need to be changed so your happy that's no issue. They are just a generic table i use which i have tuned over the years myself to be most responsive and change up/down more at the right time over the stock pattern.

I also can vouch for " the 1 " , Nigel did a tune for me on a memcal I sent him for my vr 5 ltr stato which is stock ,just 2.5" catback xhaust and vs series 2 cai + k+n filter . the car now is more responsive and the transmission changes up earlier with light throttle than b4. I am impressed with Nigel's ability and reasonable prices.
