Any noticeable drain on fuel economy as well as voiding of warranty?

Cheers guys for all your help
I called my insurance company and they said it was fine as long as it was a legal mod. There would only be changes if I wanted it included in the agreed value of my car. But I'm guessing every insurance company will be different.

You can see the previous post but there wasn't any noticeable change in my fuel consumption gauge. My understanding is that the mod voids factory warranty.

For those who are interested, I had my MMS TBE installed today. Feels and sounds awesome. I've never heard angels sing but I think it'll sound something like my exhaust note at 4000+.
I'll post a vid when I get a chance.

That's awesome. Would love a vid if possible as I'd love to hear the note. My My10STI is booked to go in for TBE & tune in 3 weeks. Can't wait!

Just a quick one. I'll see if I can get one from inside the cabin.

What is the advantage of the $1695 ecutek versus a $550 reflash? Especially for a Canbus computer.

Use the search function, it's been covered 1000 times.
Choose your tuner rather than product.

The advantage is that you pay 1695 instead of 550

That sounds sweet mate. Now I know roughly what mine will sound like! I miss that throaty growl. Are you happy with the tune? I'm sick of reading this Verso/ecutek debate and just want to hear a real appraisal of a tune from MMS.
