    It would be a flash mate as an 02 Bora doesnt need a physical chip change. Have it dynoed to see what you got.

    +1 for the bluefin reflash! More than happy with the drive ability and the extra torque. Pulls like a wounded bull.
    But confused as to why you didn't install it yourself??

    I've been mulling over this one for awhile... decided to wait till my tax return...
    Now that its sorted, I will be getting my Polo GTI Superchipped in a couple of weeks.
    I've done some very light mods, so hopefully they'll compliment the ECU flash well.

    looking forward to the results!!!

    Are you sure that was right? They put out about 95kw stock, mine ran 137ish kw, puts it at about 180HP atw...

    I'd be going GIAC, but I don't know much about the Bluefin systems, seem to get a lot more interest here than they used to.

    If Jmac supports / supplies, cant be bad...

    We need to re-do some calculations here. K03s are going pretty hard to produce 180 at the crank.

    Just checked the Dyno printout. 181.4 HP ATW. I was not the most powerfull dyno on the day, maybe the rig was favoring us...

    180 at the wheels is a lot more like it. How much were you down compared to the others?

    Mine was 135kw, I think someone pulled a 140 or 139. My APR seems to die off over time, they say to drive it harder, but I think I flog it reasonably...

    Really should get it smoke tested, anywhere in Sydney do this for a reasonable price?

    yeah, the dyno was reading on the low side apparently, I don't know the exact details, something about calibration.
