I have used Morpowa many times and was happy with their work.

Many people on here recommend Boostworks as they are competativly priced, but I have heard whispers that their PFC tuning isnt so crash hot (not that its bad either).

The other workshop I would recommend is Willall Racing (Sp?) as Martin Donnahn is supposedly the best in SA with the PFC.

Ive known Simon since we were kids - I distinctly remember us getting into trouble with the cops for bombing up a fence when we were teens. My old man and the family have been friends with the Podlewski's since i was a little tacker. Mark used to race a Torry tin top yonks ago.

Ive known them to do some great work but my brothers silvia motor had to be rebuilt by them a second time... nuf said.

If you can tune one ECU well you should be able to tune any, they are pretty much the same. Just something like Autronic with Autotune is going to be damn right alot quicker to get going then a cell by cell map of a power fc. I have tuned (with help) the Autronic, power fc, and nistune, they only bits that are harder to figure out is each own little tricks and tables for things like cold start etc.

In regard to fuel and ignition maps tuning them all is the same, but the difference between the different ones will be how well they control the motor. (which all listed above do very well)

I have never personally had a car tuned at morpowa, but I have asked simon some questions about tuning a power fc and I have never had someone tell me so much info and give so much help when I wasnt spending money with him. To me this is the best long term buisness plan for him as I would definatly go there to try them.

I always take my cars to Boostworx and have always been happy with the results. In saying that I have had my car tuned a couple times by Simon/Morpowa a few years ago and had no problems at all. 1500km? where abouts are you located?

Ryan

If i remember correctly then i think he is up at alice springs

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
