After all this you've solved it!

It's all a translation issue, the Chinese must have thought Tuned meant like a musical instrument.
English is hard to learn with all these words that have different meanings per situation.

I wonder if CX racing can make me a set of Tuned headers?
I'm thinking maybe a B# could be nice.

So you've dríven it and you can honestly say it drives / goes better than before... truth?

Why would you trust some yobbo bogan mechanic?

It's not like he could know anything about it, he doesn't have a degree in fluid dynamics.

was that vodka bottle pictured a few pages back next to an automatic transmission shifter?

I smell bullsh!te.

I give the AFM wiring a week tops before it goes up in smoke.

Dupain,

What are your thoughts on USA designed stuff?

The chinese are wizards at fluid dynamics etc, what about the USA since they also do a lot of things?

Yep and it didn't look like a BMW or Porsche either.

Hammer time!

Was stuck in traffic on the m5 round that time. Love our new beastie.

Well you've gone and done it now. Doesn't look as bad as I was first expecting, although I'd be keeping an eye on your AFM wiring or maybe shield it from the heat.

Post up a vid so we can hear the tune it plays and get an understanding as to why you were so keen on this system all along.

Years of test riding for a motorcycle suspension bloke gave me great insight into the physic of customers, Rod would say that "Fishing lures were designed to catch fishermen not fish". And if there were any doubt to his words a little bit of Gold anodising would always open a wallet quicker than a blink.

I'm calling complete BS unless the name and ph of the installer is mentioned. If it is a legit business then there is no reason not to. If the installer is "a mate" who'd rather not have his name / phone number on the forum then I'm calling it BS because no way any educated or experienced exhaust installer would call those headers tuned. Unless tuned = a specific less performance than stock.

Challenge laid down. Watch him ignore or squirm around it.
