I am considering that too Adrian.... I will probably end up going for a more custom tune though... try and ring a bit more out of the old girl :P

I forgot Peanut has the gear. I will be getting that done for sure because I have purchased from RPW :)

I'd do it and I haven't purchased from RPW... catch is I don't really have a way to read/write the ecu.

My brother-in-law has the 2010 Activ. He told me he paid the dealer here in Adelaide $800 to fit a new chip to the ECU. They told him it was an EVO chip! Has he been taken for a ride?

Yes that is a load of crap. the EVO ECU has boost maps for the turbo, so imagine the error codes it will throw when it can't find the boost sensor.

I won't say specifically in a public forum, but it was a dealer on South Rd, Morphettvale!
