    A guy was getting his 200 series fitted with a 4" system and a roo chip at work a few months ago. We had it tested before and after on a dyno and it was chalk and cheese. Driveability would've been massively improved from stock.

    Mine is still settling in post-remap and I haven't driven too far but it feels very different under the foot. More responsive off the mark and very willing rolling acceleration. Can't make much of the economy figures yet.

    Don't think you'll be disappointed. I had my TDV8 remapped with Superchips (Bluefin) about 18 months ago. Really good pickup. Overall fuel economy is 10.4 ltrs/100kms. Really happy with it. Didn't do anything with the exhaust system ... for me it doesn't need it

    Cheers

    I had the rear muffler (only muffler) cut off my Vogue and a couple of tail pipes fitted. No idea what it has done for power or economy, but I like the noise .

    You're right Steve, the car's running a treat. Smooth, relaxed and responsive town driving, wicked rolling acceleration and on my first decent freeway run - Melbourne to Warragul return - the economy was improved from low 11s per hundred to 9.3/100 km on the trip computer (and mine seems pretty accurate). Pretty amazing stuff. I'm a little scared it'll push the gearbox over the edge!!

    In regards to the 6HP26 auto what do people think is a safe torque input level ? given most re-maps allow you vary the standard output from 640 Nm to 800 Nm. Economy tunes are mainly around the 715Nm+ mark and most tunes are between these two figures.
    Recommended factory limits for this auto is 640Nm.
