Hey guys, So my car was running pretty crappy lately, it seemed to be running too rich and revving too high when idle. Also, it just didn't seem to have the amount of power she used to have so i took it to Chip Torque at Nerang this morning and i am happy to say i'm very pleased with the result it came out with! Turns out the reason why it was revving too high on idle was a purge canister vacuum hose that was leaking. Also found a faulty PCV valve. The end result was 136.3rwkwts which alot more torque down low which feels soo much better!
