I had one a few years ago, used it for fans, gears, shift firmness, etc. but never tried the tune. More advantageous for an A4 car.

Here In Australia The Only Ls1 Stuff Readily Available Is For Hsv And Holden Commodores Therefore When Asking Tuning Shops About An Edit Or Tune What Can I Expect To Get As I Am Sure That The Camaro Ls1 Can Be Flashed Only.

Also Doesn't The Thermostat Have To Be Changed Etc! It's An A4

Any Feedback Would Be Much Appreciated!

Man be careful with that damn Hypercrap!! I had one when I had my 98 Z28 and it scrambled my pcm twice. The first time it wasn't the programmer's fault because the battery went dead. The second time it happened when it was going back to stock. It went back to stock just fine but the car wouldn't start after that. Nothing that $350.00 wouldn't fix at the dealer.

I had one on my 98 a long time ago. It served it's purpose for me at the time. I gained 3 tenths with it but I also knew a lot less back then than I do now and hind sight being 20/20 would advise against running the performance tune unless you have access to a wideband so you can make sure it's not leaning you out to much. I ran mine on my car for a year or more with no issues. I ran my shift firmness at 75% and loved the shifts.
