it depends on ur service advisor.. if he wants to b a d*** abt it.. the warranty will void if something is wrong wth ur car n' they checked the ecu n' found out that it is not in factory settings.. but most service guys really dun care abt it.. i'd say go for it.. i really want to do it too but my 350 is my daily ride so i juz dun hav time...

I just hope its gets me back to that pushed in your seat feeling of the G and the feeling of endless acceleration. I feel like that's not too much to ask for.

Yeah same here, besides I am in Vancouver, BC. I sent an email to Matt at Powerchip and see if they would do something like that in Canada at least that way it can be done with a faster turn around time (for Canadians)

Ps... Geez, I was hoping to at least get a "Powerchip" sticker for my tool box...

Please don't bring ur issues to this thread. Everyone here has had a good experience. The one thread I read is about Powerchip in Australia. As I stated before, I had great customer service and I am very happy with my product.

We appreciate that, it's unfortunate that there's a few people trying to tarnish our reputation to make a name for themselves, but that's one of the drawbacks of the internet. Myself and the rest of the guys at PC do our best to make each of you guys happy and that includes answering questions and phone calls on weekends. Thanks for the support, it helps me wake up and go to work everyday knowing we are doing something right.
So again thank you and everyone else who has participated.
As a reward for your support, everyone who participated in this group buy will get free reflashes if or when you have the need. Matt B

He was not billed twice, or billed in error, or billed an amount he should not have been, and he does not state that the amount is unfair or unreasonable.
The use of the language "they charged my credit card without my permission" I suggest could be beter stated as "they waited a couple of weeks to bill my credit card for the shipping I had agreed to pay, but it was a surprize when the bill came in because it was billed AFTER I had already paid for just the software upgrades and it came up as a seperate charge I wasnt expecting"

Simon's credit card was charged shipping a couple of weeks after the initial sale was made because we waited until the Fedex charges came through at month end.
