With some luck ill have a Viezu v-switch controller for sale soon (it belongs to my friend) so you can make that wish come true. I flick mine back to stock every now and then. One word......SLOW.

^ Thanks Lucas. Already have one (actually two! Long story...)

Am going to reload stock soon to get a before / after dyno result. Stock and Stage 2.

Not sure if this is a good plan or not, but will keep me occupied I guess!

Any suggestions for a good service place for a Golf R on the Sunshine Coast. I know Cricks are near Maroochydore but looking for alternatives and if possible, closer to Kawana Waters - have now relocated.

Had a great run from Sydney last week during our relocation. The car averaged 7.5 l/100km cruising at 110-120 kph all the way. Everything going as expected and performing flawlessly.

Thank god we left Sydney, wish we had done it years ago.

I have only heard of Crick's up that way sorry.

On the upside, welcome to QLD and hopefully we can get you out to happy laps (see events section for round 17)

I do that every now and again. Also did it for the dyno run to see the improvement.

Cant help you with service places in QLD but congrats on the move. I don't know how people live in Sydney to begin with - i hate it. New location looks nice a nice spot.

Loving the Sunshine Coast - especially for driving. No traffic congestion, excellent roads, better (and more courteous) drivers.

If anyone comes up with ideas about a service centre (can be non-VW), pm would be great
