dont understand the logic of paying for something that you don't know what it is??

however, this item is very straightforward - simply converts your speedo from the current KMH to a MPH reading, everything else stays the same, even the speed limiter!! except the car never now sees this number to activate it as it now resides at 180MPH......................

i know what this gadget does :razz: ,thats why im having it done and paying for it ...:D . im sick of the cutting out at 112mph + 180 kmh. i was not sure what differances to expect . thats why i asked.....:thumb: .

Expect a rebuild if you keep going over 112mph :D apart from that, there will be no differences apart from the spedo now reads MPH. make sure your mileage is recorded as it will be xxx km + xxx miles

sorry to but in 5oo,why would you expect a rebuild if going over 112mph?

Most engine failiures reported have been after or during a high speed run.

Some sources also say the standard TMIC scoop looses its efficency after 100mph

HERE WE GO ..i had the gearbox one fitted .... i think the cars running a lot better . took about 15 mins to fit and 20 minutes for the car to cool down .. :norty: after a nice slow drive to zen .. so you can expect to pay half hours labour fitting time. went down the M1 today and reached 117mph and bottled it . the car had plenty more but im not used to the car going that fast . also the speedo not going of the clock and cutting out at 112 mph . it actually read the right speed. the price was rounded of at £87 . the price of the part was only £55 + £19 labour . also £12.94 vat . ZEN PERFORMANCE ARE HIGHLY RECOMENDED BY ME..THEY ARE A GREAT BUNCH OF PEOPLE WITH GREAT KNOWLEDGE OF SUBARUS .you just have to look at the ZEN DEMMO CAR to see they know what there doing. . ive recently had quite a bit of work done there and with no problems .:thumb: I HOPE THIS HELPS ... WILL TRY TO TAKE A PIC 2MORRO :D . ...

fitting one does not make cars run better!! its a convertor, nothing is touched on the engine.

Also be careful about whats speeds you do especially on public roads :nono: you dont know who reads these threads
