QUESTION

Hi John,

I have ordered a pride over your website in June and was very happy with the result. I might even get it one day.

My wife and I will be selling up and heading out to find as many Dingo Piss Creeks as possible in our modernized 1979 aluminum caravan.

I've been hearing a lot of things about EVC throttle controllers and that they stopped the turbo lag.

I would appreciate your advice very much on A) if they are worth getting; and B) do they affect the new car warranty or later claims?

Waiting in anticipation for your reply,

Swampy Marsh (Andrew)
