Sup Vic,

Glad to hear you got the car. Hope she runs well, and I hope you have many happy "smokey" miles. :wink:

Besides the pm I sent you on the OPC forum there is a lot of info about our cars on this forum. So do some searching, and ask some questions in the technical section, and the other diesel boys will gladly assist with their knowledge.

Now hurry up and post some pics of the tractor! :hug:

Cheers,
Kyle

Edit to add: Performance wise: First decat & exhaust, then software. It's the best bang for buck. +-R4500 and you'll have and extra 25-30% more power.
