Where do you guys think i should go to get my safc II installed and tuned, as well as some other fine tuning? At CRD or hitman?

CRD is closer for me, however, when it comes to safc's i have heard hitman is the way to go. So, i am just seeking some of your combined wisdom here guys...

i have heard great stories about both and obviously their rep is fantastic, so i will have no problems giving either one my business...

i say get he best of both worlds and go to CRDMAN. or HITRD.

seriously, all this thread is going to give you is 10 guys posting saying "I went to hitman and it was great" and then 10 more saying "I went to CRD and they were great".

you could save all the hassle and just do a little search in NSW section, or just ring them both, get a quote, get a feel for them and then pick one.

can i ask why not get full management?

i always wonder why when i read a thread like this about getting an expensive professional tune for a halfway decent result

i can understand wanting to spend the dosh on someone like CRD or hitman if you were going with a PFC or silmilar but i put little weight on just how expensive and overboardf a tune should be for a safc

this is not an attack on you or anyone else with a safc just trying to understand

automatic transmission jimbo, otherwise it would have been pfc. afr's are very rich so i thought why not fix that with the tax return money

beer baron, now the reason why i put a thread about this on here is because maybe someone, or knows of someone, that had a problem when tuning (even though it would be unlikely as these workshops are of high quality)

so better check all my bases first, just in case...

just getting some opinions on here as well...isn't that one resaon why these forums exist?

yeah true. it is one of the reasons the forums exist. It's just that we get one of these threads every month or so, so the most recent one would hardly be out of date, and the opinions will just be a representation of people on the forum. same as this one.

    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go.
