Tom Wong at Wong's Performance Engineering tuned it - he is a fantastic tuner and anyone on here who's had work done at his shop will agree.
Soon as I get a chance I'll get some interior pictures.
Thanks for the replies.

I really want an FRC, but this is very tempting. I don't quite have the cash though, so I'll just give you a bump to the top. Looks like a nice car. Any interior pics?
