Sounds about right. I throw in mumbo jumbo about emissions savings and legal requirements from manufacturers to detune their vehicles etc etc..

Anyway dad's car is back from HPF tomorrow, i'm going to pick it up and stay there for an hour of dyno'ing..He won't think it's stupid when he realises how much difference it makes to his driveability.
