Dont want to fiddle too much rich, cars only 6mnts old - i think.
And dont know how resonable cvc will be if i start to tinker too much.
keith price fitted the other system so....

CVC are sticklers when it comes to warrentees ... IMHO there always on the lookout for a reason to invalidate it.... Keith Price is gonna get my business from now on. Just ordered the Afterburner Vortex for my MY53 STi, if you can hang on a few days I'll let you know what its like compared with the PPP'd Prodrive box.

Cheers

PC555, will prob wait untill i could poss hear yours?
CVC - to be fair a friends bought 4 cars off them turbo, RB5 (written off by ponty), p1 sti8 and he blew engine in 2- app they have a spare for the 8, but he sold it back to them a few mnts back and that had a full decat scoobysport system on it.
I never had problems with my scoobsport system - prob just loose warranty on exhaust.

If you are lucky! I've seen a memo from Subaru to dealers stating ANY mod will invalidate the full warrenty of the car! I have a copy somewhere i'll try and find it.

If you would like to compare the Blitz with the other maybe we should all meet up.

We are planning a meet in Cardiff soon - see the Mr Taylor thread maybe next week even.
