Ok so a bit of an update, as I know of so far

I rang the performance shop the other day and they told me the exhaust is complete, the front bar is mounted and the intake is done. the next things to be done was the boost controller to be fitted and the tune. BUT the Dyno specialist is on holidays till next Monday. Darn, drat, double DRAT!

But oh well it wont be rushed, come on 8 days! hurry up and leave so i can see next Monday.

I might have to stick around for an update on the tune

Hello hello, The update today is

I went to the shop today to see the exhaust and my gosh, its tucked up nicely. It should not scrape or drop down. As I was talking to them bout the exhaust the boss walks out and said they couldn't access the Microtech cos its locked.

SO I rang around for the guy who "locked it" Amazingly I got the number from BennyET told the guy what happened and he gave me the codes he would have used.
Thanks Benny for that.

Now to wait till Monday/Tuesday for a call.

Yes Ash, it will be interesting to see what the result is.

Cheers,
Dexi

Glad it got sorted, could have been quite an issue

Gosh darn it. The codes didn't work. Hope the guy on Monday can sort it out

Yeah I spoke with Rick (the Owner) and he said they cant get it to "Talk" & he has had a problem with another Microtech and it was a pushed in pin. So I'll see what happens when I pop over later this Arvo.

I'll get some picks up when I upload them from my phone.
