I have no personal experience but, there are STi owners in South Africa who have one I will found out.
When I was in New Zealand in January this year, I visted Link HQ and they were testing a final version of the Link with AVCS control. It is definitely finished and available by now. Visit LINK's forum at http://forums.link-electro.co.nz/ and ask more.

Good Luck

How is your 6MT holding up to the massive 400 hp ATW (?? or thereabouts)I read about in the i-club forum a while ago?

I thought Simon Lines works for Prodrive?

You can also try Bob Rawle of BR Developments in UK. He is the top Link tuner in the UK.
