Give them a ring and tell them the car and Reg No.  They should tell you all the details .   :y

If its the stamp on the lip spoiler, sorry to say they only made that... no tuning was done!

Is it a 3.2 or 2.6? These later ECU's (Namely Bosch Motronic 3.1.1) can be flashed with later software but i've never heard of anyone doing it except SP32 who had his done at an outlet in Bromsgrove.

Edit: Saying that, MDTM checked the Version on mine to see if there was a later GM version to try and eliviate the 3.2 precat problem but mine was already running the last version GM released.

Their test track facility is just up the road from me, buried in the countryside, it's an ex RAF airfield.
