I then sent the following email to asg this morning:


Hi guys my name is Rhys I got my power fc tuned and installed into my red gc8 wrx there about a month and a half ago. This cost me $500



It wasn’t running as smooth as I had hoped, it lasted for about 4 days before the car cut out on me and I had to get it towed back in. You guys then put the stock ecu back in, but said the power fc worked fine on another vehicle, and there must be a wiring issue with my car.



I decided I would take it elsewhere as I wasn’t happy with the service that you provided. After inspection by another workshop I was told that the car had been tuned with a faulty air flow meter. I have no idea how you guys didn’t pick up on this before you tuned it as the air/fuel ratio wouldn’t have been correct. After replacing the air flow meter. Here are the results of the first power run on the tune that you guys done.

177.6 hp and 227.43 nm torque which is nowhere near the power it should be making based on similar vehicles with the same modifications.



I then spent another $450 at the other workshop on a retune as yours was done so poorly. This is the graph after the re-tune.

As you can see 264.2 hp and 344 nm torque. This is where the vehicle should have been at when I got it initially tuned with you guys.



For this I am requesting a refund of the price of the tune (not including installation ) as the service was not up to standard.



This should be a reasonable request, as per the information on this website

Refund or cancel service - Consumer Protection - Department of Commerce

Thanks. I look forward to hearing your reply. Rhys
