Vange - I have had good service and results from Turbo Tune, so I wouldn't worry. Michael has tuned my S15 for 2 years and always has a safe/rich tune (at my request), and will not try to get every last rwkw at the risk of detonating an engine (like some other tuners around will).

Every workshop has people who have had bad experiences, so don't worry about what everyone has to say.

My car was last there 2 months ago and I am very happy. Lots of the stories you will hear are from x years ago - so aren't really up to date. That said, everyone is human and every single workshop has had some sort of mistake or failure that people will always tell you about. You hear little of good reports.

However, Boostworx is one workshop I have heard nothing but good things about. Maybe get Shaun to put it on his dyno just to make sure the tune and afrs look ok - if you are worried, that is.

Graham West on Marion Rd can tune the eManage.

I only ever did a power run on their dyno, so can't vouch for their work, but from talking to them they seem like really a good bunch down there.

yeh im not worried, was happy with the boost controller they put on, n he set it at max 10psi so i dont blow anyting. seems 2 b running ok anyway...got new sparkies as well, the others were stuffed lol.

i might have 2 get it re-dynoed cos since it was last dynoed i had new clutch, new spark plugs and hiflow cat.

was thinking of getting a emanage, how much they cost 2 get installed, prob do the fuel pump as well...any1 know if the fuel economy gets better or worse with an emanage or better fuel pump?

i get mine done at hitech dyno on south rd, so does Phu 'PHUMAN' and he highly recommends it. Boostworx wouldnt touch my emanage ultimate, the guy said he had to call John (hitech) to get it to work as he couldnt figure it out??? I was shocked. Still got my fuel pump done there and is fine. Should be getting my emanage ultimate put in before the up coming cruise

Whats to be shocked about. Shaun specialises in Power FC's and Microtech computers...Hitech may know emanage and something else. You cant expect everyone to know everykind of computer out there...

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.  
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
