    Excellent.

    It probably would help to know what I'm looking for. I use my car as a daily driver (do about 40km a day) and also for trips down the coast to surf, so I'm not looking for a traffic light drag car. I'm looking for a highly useable/well intergrated tune that will make chores like overtaking more effortless.

    I've had a 6hr trail tune from APR and was extremely impressed with the linear nature of power delivery, was still a very easy car to drive daily during the commute. I guess I'd like to hear from those with other tunes as to the nature of their "style" (i.e. maybe people's experience of another tune is even more linear/userfriendly than the APR tune?) in the areas I mentioned in my initial post.

    No idea what the others are like but after I do some mild n/a work to the engine I will probably go for the CC Phase 2 tune.
    I doubt that is a "mistake with the code". Is there a EML coming on when this happens? Did you scan it for fault codes?
