Dyno Tune - Thanks. Now Need Someone To Buy Touch Up Paint Off. Calsonic Blue.


Recommended Posts

Just finishing putting all the new stuff in my car. Who should I go to on the coast?

Was thinking Gavin Wood? Good choice?? or who else?

Thanks guys

....................

Rather than starting a new topic - I thought I'd just post this here.

I'm now looking for someone to supply/apply some touch up paint.

Any ideas?

Edited by Anakha

heard nothing but good things about matt. will be going to him when i get my SAFC2 tuned (waiting for cash >_<)

1 thing to remember: i've heard his dyno is a tad on the conservative side.. so don't worry about the figure it spits out, just look more at the before / after curve.

I got my PFC in now, in need of a tune. Stock maps Okay, but it could be better, a little more grunty in the low and midrange and about the same as stock up high... injector duty never go's above 40% on 0.9 bar so im questioning if I have the stock injectors in there...

anyway I might give matt spry a ring, would be good to get done before dyno day.

Already called him last week as a back up plan incase Richard cant do it...

2-3 week wait... Cannot do it before the dyno day... :huh:

The soonest he had free was the day of the dyno day... :)

whats matt charge these days? Is it still the $200/hour? That, in my books is a flamin rip off. A fair few people on here go to richard at Allstar Tuning. What's richard charge $/hr col?

Richard was $100 per hour

And for that price he (Matthew Spry) will happily lock your PowerFC, so that nobody else can tune it.....

thats 50% less than anyone else I know of

damn straight it is! damn richard and his awesome business, if only i knew all this earlier *sigh*

bahaha yeahhhhhh :D

You would have to ask him what his usuall rate is, but yeah SAU members get on the rollers for about $100 an hour...

Richard was $100 per hour

Yep, only for members tho...

:D get farked!

True...

Yes, but in Matts defence he asked me when he tuned mine if i would like him to lock it or not.

He expained if he locks it then people stuffing with the hand controler wont do any damage, he went on to say he is happy to unlock the pfc free of charge if nessary in the future... I saw the benifit of locking the pfc...

What if you wanted to change some parts which required corrections to the PFC? eg; injectors or AFM. That would mean you would have to drive all the way to the coast to make an adjustment that would normally take about 20 seconds. I don't see any benefit. I don't leave my car with monkeys, so nobody is ever going to be "stuffing" with my PFC.

Say you did leave your car with a workshop that you were unfamiliar with and you wanted to set the limiter to say 4000rpm just to be on the safe side, no can do without a trip to PITS....

    • Did and sync timing with light 
    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
