Oh and how many times does a guy have to fork out 100 bucks for dyno time for each chip. Not to mention not bring able to drive the car.

Simply guessing the tune is a horrid way to do things

So it is 500 bucks for the chip + 100 dollars or more for a dyno check, tune is crap, send ecu back fit new chip, another 100 odd bucks on the dyno and repeat

If someone fits your chip and the motor blows up because it detonates itself to bits or melts piston crowns etc will you replace the motor?

Who told you ????

Please give me my customer name.

Dyno operator check knock and AFR properly , engine never blow up .

Also I said if not happy I refund money.

Price is $400 for std turbo and dyno around $80-100.

Yes, around 3% need retune so some time dyno fee x2.

Power will get around 190-200kw AFR11-12 depend customer.

If he will go to race track I will tune to AFR 11.

Of course not.

The whole point is why get a mail order tune when you can just pay for someone to dyno tune it properly with knock detection and wideband logging equipment. You won't save any money in the long run and you will end up with a 'guess' tune that is far from spot on.

12.5 AFR at peak torque in a country like Australia where we see 40c summers? 'I think' isn't really good enough when you have a two thousand dollars worth of engine to replace if it goes pop.

Sometimes you have to beat a dead horse to get the point across.

Of course realtime tune is better. So Im asking to customer would you like to mail order or real time tune. If customer want to real time tune I will go another state for tune.

But some customer want to remove boost limiter (R&R) and do not want to spend over $500 for ecu.

Many people want to better power and response (not best) but do not want to spend over $1000 for ecu.

I think my mail order remap is good for like this customer.

Many people buy like a mins ecu but I think my remap is much safer.

Because my data is for Australia fuel.

I always explain to customer when hot day please boost down.

Also I told if customer will go race track I will adjust AFR around 11 depends on power. (Many tuner adjusting to AFR 12 so they say AFR11 is too rich but I think around 11 is safer for race track.AFR 11 is normally cylinder temp around 850 degrees)

I can tune for customer request.

If customer want to power I can do it but I will explain for risk.

If customer want to safe tune I can do it but bit lower power.

If customer not happy I never charge.

LOL

Im sorry about arguments on this thread.

I do not write much forum about tune before because tune is depends on tuner.

But I think we have tell best information on thread now.

Because many people thinking need a lot of money for tune.

I do not think so If its not full tune.

So This times my answer , 370 cc injector is able to make 250kw+ but if you want to go race track I think bigger injector is better.

If you never go to race track 240-250kw not problem.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
