Hi and welcome to the forum :greetings-wavingblue: as for performance I would do a remap more power and better mpg.definitely worth the money just use a reputable company, as far as sound goes the RCZ is a little lame and your only going to sort this by getting a custom exhaust system, this isn’t as expensive as it sounds :D there are off the shelf aftermarket rear systems but these don’t give that much of an improvement in sound. To get some real noise the centre box needs removal.
Hope this helps and try and get some photos posted of your Z we never grow tired of seeing these beautiful cars :beer:

Thanks for the advice, I've been told that the rcz has some sort of anti-re-map software/chip and needs to be deactivated. Any suggestions on a reputable garage in the Derby area ?

Thanks

Not heard of the anti remap chip thing :crazy: what I do know is it can’t be remapped through the OBD port the ECU has to come off and have the new map written directly to it.
Sorry can’t help with anyone in Derby :eusa-think:

Not heard of this software, but I don’t know anyone who has had their remap done through the OBD :eusa-think:
