yeh is an ls1. gm seem to know their stuff they have a good website with info on their ls1 packages where chip control dont have much at all for a site. gm seem to be alot more holden orientated and chip control isnt. im still looking for opinions tho so thanks john for yours i shall keep in mind will give scott a call to see what he says

on this subject of chip control, is there a way to de tune your car? im looking at getting a vx ss but due to being a p plater i am slightly out of my power to weight ratio by about 20 kws. im wondering if there is any way to get it tuned down?

lol, nah.. althought a very rugged and practical way to do it... i heard from somewhere you can take it to a tuning or vic roads place and they can plug into your computer and detune your car, give you something of an engineers certificate and then if the cops pull you over you show them that what your driving is legal... im in desperate need of a new car, i want a v8, i want an ss, i want a vx, but i dont see the ppint in buying something else for the next 6 months if in another 6 months ill get that itch up and have to buy another car anyways.

I've been there and never seen anything except a Holden in that shop except one time....a Lotus replica with a cent charged LS1.

They go well and use EFI live which apparently allows more accurate tuning.
