And to be honest, that does make sense, much as it wont please us on here!
The upside is that it should just about eradicate the poor quality crap/ineffective "tuning" gear out there

It would also stamp out 99% of the tuning we see in this country from small tuning firms.
Someone like Mark Shead at MAD for example is constantly moving his specs on, evolving bit by bit, if he had to stop and TUV approve all the parts used every step of the way, I would imagine it wouldnt be economically viable to do so.
The tuning scene as a whole would more or less just end up being a choice of 2 different tuning packages each from 2 different companies or whatever, and no other choices.
It will totally kill the individual scene we have here at the moment, shows will be lines of the same car with exactly the same tuning goodies on.
