Had a call from the boss at Roo Systems the other day and he asked if they could have another go at re-tuning my car. Awesome result this time, thanks guys for going the extra mile and making things right. Pic attached. 208 HP and 501 NM at the wheels!

That’s Awesome Cobbly!! That’s great customer service.
After a few tanks of fuel let me know how economy goes if you would. Mine is using slightly less fuel then before but has still been mostly city driving. Loving the extra power.

Will do Dam27. I will be towing a 1500kg caravan down through NSW soon, so the extra torque should make it even easier! Hopefully the economy will be better as well...

Hi Surnturf, it was a new tune. They can't tune the WK2's while on the dyno. The ECU is removed from the vehicle, tune downloaded from a computer to the ECU, then re-installed in the vehicle and then put on the dyno to see the result. This may take several runs while they adjust the tune on the computer and download to the ECU, re-install each time to get the best result. Cheers
