There is a possibility I will be doing a road trip to QLD next Feb, maybe as far north as Hervey Bay. It's all speculation at the moment.

This will be a dam hopping fishing trip but the tuning gear will be going along too. So there should be some opportunity for the lost in the country Lancers to get some love along the way.

Contact me if you think this may work out for you.

Dave

Not that I can afford it this time but can you refresh my memory as to the cost of the tune on a 09 VRX?

Also how it could affect warranty?

My car is covered by an used car warranty, the main things covered is the engine and GB. I'll be getting a service in Dec and will ask them about outside tuning as part of the warranty says they have to do all servicing and repairs of the car. Not sure where this falls.

FYI it's done just over 94k. Actually had it's 90k service about a year ago just before I picked it up. I've got a RA snorkel, working on opening up the air flow and getting a free flow muffler later in the week. Will get a better than stock air filter when needed. I have asked and these won't affect that warranty.

If all is okay with the dealer I might be able to afford something in the first 1/4 of the new year, after I pay the rego and insurance.

Hey mate, I'm with Merlin now, give him a call on 0419 140 226. We're at the DFO back car park
"Because it's just not enough to drive the car at 180km/h. I want to take the 0 - 179km/h part out to get there!"
