BAD!!!!!!!! VERY BAD!!!
They caught me twise never again! spent R8500 on my bakie there.. as it was all place witbank ford said i can take it and not loose my warranty.. so they charged me for bigger cooler , decat exhaust and tune! they claimed my bakie made 86kw afterwards from 54kw.. but i can feel there is almost no difference! when i put the bakie on our dyno it made 61kw.. they charged me R1900 to cut open my catbox and remove the cat and weld it back! so i got a TNT 63mm pipe from turbo to front upped the boost to 1.0bar and tune the pump and it now makes 82kw on our dyno.. and you can feel it! Skelm Bliksems bud!

Okay guys,so despite all the tips and info and warnings etc etc.
I have decided to stick with steves auto clinic.
Will be taking the car to them within the next 3 months and will keep you guys posted on the results.
I have taken my car there last year when I had problems with my intake manifold and they have also done a main service on my kar.They did everything they were supposed to and the car was sorted after they were done with it.So from my past experience they were honest and good.
If however they decide to screw me or break something I will have to shoot the fuckers.

You know what,I have heard bad rap about other places too,but then you still get people who alway go to the same places and they always get good service.
I have been to Steves before and my personal experience was good,they did not cheat or bullshit me. :thumbsup:
I just wanted a general idea of what places are good and which ones are not but everyone has a different opinion,which to me meant that everyone who had a good experience with which ever tuner then decided the work was great and the best etc etc.Just because 10 ppl get excelent service it does not mean that everyone will get the same service,and just because 10 people get a shit service somewhere it does not mean that everyone will get a shitty service.For all those who did give advice,thanks I really appreciated it,but I'm sticking to my gutt feeling.

Street racer is correct TNT all the way as for Shewin he is really clued up with BMW( not coping for him ).

OKay guys,I will take the advice and rather stick with someone like excede,bit more expensive but in the long run it will be cheaper since I won't have any problems with the mods.
Just hard to understand why steves mess up so much ? I heard a lot of good stuff about them not long ago.But anyways,I'm not going to take the change,excede performance it is. :thumbsup:
