Going in tomorrow to get rear box removed and spoke to tuner today looking to get done next wed his time permitting (seeing as will be no charge job will be done after hours) hopefully all going to plan shall be complete and can then really take for a good test run. Will prob do a good power run too just to see what she can put out before having set to a nice safe tune :D

Think I might just lock myself in the freezer at work if that happens.

Exactly what I do at work, the walk in freezer is always spotlessly clean during summer and a mess in winter :lol:

But I don't know what you soft-c's are complaining about, were always 5-10 degrees hotter further out of Adelaide, you've at least got sea breeze occasionally....

Anything over 5 degree is too hot for me.
And the A/C can only do 16. Fucker.

But yeah, best to have the plugs changed in time for the tune.
