So whats the difference between a spec1 & spec2?

your standard motor will be able to handle spec1 remap...

If you want to change your clutch ever 8k miles then stick a spec2 on with a uprated clutch and other components

spec2 = more power = more problems to a standard car. 

Drop Ben or Nick a PM, top guys, always happy to help.
