How many places do mail order tunes for the VZ commodore most tunes are different so I don't think it can be said that all mail order tunes are **** and comparing it against a dyno tune is a bit unfair in my opinion.

From what I've heard is that you guys do a great job though. :)

theres a **** load of these mail order tunes around in sydney that ive heard of and seen, not worth the rubbish just do a custom tune at castle hill exhaust. i asked them when i first went for that tune what there tune was based on: he said "cat back exhaust, cold air intake and extractors" and once he did it and i drove out of there i could feel something wrong with the torque.

I bought VCM Suite with a basic tune........... the basic tune ran 123kw on the dyno. It was nothing special, personally I think it wasn't worth what I paid for it. The engine tune stuff was crap, the only useful thing in it was the gearbox tuning which helped me out a bit (seeing what they had done).
