However, your tune is a one size fits all deal and it's not optimized for my parts combination. I've got 10k miles behind the wheel of this car and believe me...the Powerchip tune is makin' the power. I wish you all the best .
+1 this isn't an attack on AA - after all, the AA tune was an off the shelf tune that would have been developed for stock exhaust system, whilst the Powerchip tune was a custom tune optimized specifically for your car and your modifications....

What it does highlight for me anyway is that I think once you go down the full exhaust path, you really need a custom tune, regardless of whose tune it is. Unless of course AA bring out a specific tune for their full exhaust systems, but that only works if you are an AA customer for everything...
