  3. ya think he is going back tommorrow and will suss it out....he already srouced another engine and the tuner might be helping him with pricing...reading the thread my mate gave up on persuing the matter against the tuner but will persue the reason for the blow up...will keep you guys updated... thanks all for you responses....really appreciate it...

    Buyer Beware

    +1
  20. no...think it came with the car..why dont they usually have them?
  21. he was using castrol 5w 60....that oil is meant to be one of the best....well thats what i use on my car...not to start the which oil is better convo...just wanted to put it out there if that might be of help...well according to what the tuner sounded like he was kinda blaming the oil cooler and when the oil got hot and when he started it again, he found the enigne to be blown...anyhow....ill talk to my mate and get the tuner to pull the engine apart and ill post pix on to see what he says about it and to what you guys think about it...
  22. thanks mate...but he did get the apexi pfc and the tuner was tuning with that ecu...injectors was in the initial plan but dont remember why he didnt do it...anyhow he just told the tuner to tune the car so it runs nicely and gets a bit more power... yes he is not a qualified mechanic but his work on cars is really good....he does do a great job...but yes i did also mention to him that it could be that he worked on the car himself...i can ensure he didn pull shortcuts in the installations and bought the required tools to do the installations properly...he didnt get the parts put in by the mechanic coz he wanted to do it himself as thats what he likes to do....
  23. NO you dont know this car...your shop was considered but for my mate it was easier with the tuner he choose...so he went there instead... Advice from a tuner is highly appriceated here.... Like you said i had the same opinion.....according to the tuner the oil temp reached just above 120 degrees while tuning the car...then he switched the car off...when he started again it was making metal grinding noise.....WIERD...if i was a tuner i wouldn be letting the oil to reach that high temp...would that be monitored closely? i would have been switching the car off when it got close to 110...the car wasnt pinking badly....it was running fairly smoothly after my mate played with the accel cable like mentioned in the first post.... with the mods,the tuner could get the car to pull above 190awkw....and line on the dyno went up and flattened out...ill get my mate to give a the dyno sheet so i can scan and show you how the first tune looked like so you minght be able to tell where the fault was....
  24. well he didnt drive it enough for him to push it often and he is a sensible driver so didnt do it on the roads...i had to force him to go with me on the fwy and after plenty of times he only went once....he loves his cars and loves working on them and doing mods to them....therefore mods for more power.... when he placed the new parts to together i was with him and he didnt belt it ...his revs didnt go above 3k or so...just so all the parts wear in....i remeber he booted it twice i think to make sure the new parts could handle high revs on the dyno....he did drive it (normal driving) around for a fair while...well enough for the parts to wear in before he gave it to the tuner....the tuner was informed about the mods at the start... what is my mate looking for? just to make sure the tuner is not covering his mistakes...if he did any...should my mate be with him when he is pulling the motor apart or the cause of the engine to blow cant be hidden no matter whos fault is it... ya i thought so...but he didnt sign any sort of paper work like that...i was pretty sure i did that too when i got my car tuned.... THANKS GUYS for your support and advices....me and my mate are fairly new to this kind of industry so not sure what the rules and regulations are...more info the better is for him to know whats the best option he got right now....
