This was posted on here a couple of months back.

But that said I have one of these little things. Works in my car but doesnt really work well in the mrs's barina.

Best to put it in a little 4 cyl car cos when you put it in a 6T or 8 you wil find yourself going well over the speed limit very quickly :P
