Any GTA owners have the Superchips Cortex tune in their cars yet? If so, where did you buy from and how much complete with shipping? Thanks in advance for your comments. I'm definitely thinking of doing this, along with a Roto-fab CAI.

Greater Toronto Area, not some special Canada only GT version of the G8. :driving:

Although it would be kind of cool for Pontiac to bring back the GTA label for the G8 - however, GXP sounds cool as well.

I am not in the GTA area but I got raped by UPS for brokerage and GST fees to the tune of $112.50. So be careful where you order it from or it might be worth driving across the border and picking it up.

Thanks for the info quake - good to know. Might be worth a trip over. I'm only 90 mins from the border.

I've been UPS/duty raped too many times as well.

Some tips is to ensure you only receive product from the US vis USPS and not a shipper like UPS or Fedex as their brokerage fee can equal duty bringing it to three figures.

If you do order a product and it comes via UPS/Fedex, make sure it is less than $100. Don't be surprised to see a $50 "charge" to your final price.

It truly is worth it many times to drive across the border and pickup your order and try your luck at the border. Many times they'll just wave you through.

Seems like the majority of Roto-Fab owners are happy with them and Marylandspeed was offering a "combo" offer so I had to oblige :)
