For all of you Australia customers, I'm looking into tuning your cars and will have an update soon. We have an office in Australia which I will be contacting today to work everything out.

Thanks H_D. Both of my other cars; s2k and r32gtr, have 9krpm rev limits. Hence the nick.

Thanks for looking after us Aaron. I am in QLD, do you know where your Aus connection reside in?

Every email I have received has been answered. Mind sending it again so I can see the date it was sent?

I'm sure every other customer who has inquired about anything has received a message back right away, even on Saturdays and Sundays.

Thanks for forwarding me the email. If it was somehow overlooked or didn't go through I need to ensure that doesn't happen again.

Steve, bear in mind that our 98 octane is a RON (research octane number) rating. The US 91 octane is an Anti knock rating (AKI). AKI is the average of MON (motor octane number) and RON. So I think our 98 is equivalent to their 93-95 AKI octane. Bloody scientists always try to confuse the consumers

As far as conversions, you're correct.

Yes, I do have news.

Currently we have an office in Melbourne and have dealers throughout Australia. Send me a PM or email with your full name, email address, and vehicle. I'll then go ahead and forward the information to Powerchip Australia and they will contact you shortly.

If anyone has any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks Aaron ... I guess the big question is about the price ... will they be comparable to the american product in price .... as there are powerchip dealers here in Aus, but the prices are a lot more than you guys are paying in the US.
