Wayne, from what I've read you would have to be a complete moron to burn through your paint. Have a look on Detailingworld....there's a really good guide on there for using a DA.

Got the remap done today and i cant belive how much more responsive it is! i have noticed the dumpvalve that is on the car isnt powerful enough so im getting the 007p next thursday.
