nah its not flashing to 3000 rpm. i can pu my foot flat and the revs just sit there at 2800rpm untill my car speed is up to the rpm. When i first had it in it flashed to 3000 rpm untill i heard a crack noise(4 take offs after installed) and it started slipping. now its getting even worse.

Crescent motors in Sydney do one, fairly well priced too, Data Mine from here had one, and i think he was pretty happy with it til he got his GT
