Thinking about a flash tuner for my BF11 GT. How much horsepower will the standard GT driveline take before things start breaking?

Has anyone actually done mod work on the new generation auto's?? icon_confused.gif

They come across like such finely tuned, highly engineered pieces of machinery.......that it just seems wrong to be fidling with them. Im just thinking aloud i suppose.

From what i make of them, they sound like that can handle quite a bit of power...................as it was a joint venture (by a few high grade automakers) in designing the ZF Auto's.

Im guessing most mods will be made via key strokes on a laptop.......rather than replacing parts. icon_wink.gif
