Hi ben , the best setup for your car would be the haltech E6gmx,but i would have to wire it in not use the plug-in fuction as the factory ecu will control the gearbox shift pattern and not comatible with direct plug-ins. As a drivein-driveout setup you are looking around the $1800-2000 supplied,fitted and tuned.
cheers mate. good to have a $$$ figure to save towards now.... Should have the turbo in the next 3 -4 , will try and have the rest of the kit bought, bolted on and ready for a tune by march some time. :)
Does it converting to manual change anything with the computer ?? as its something im considering too ?
