Haltech Tune Help!

[Beau.r]

Where is the best place in Hobart that I can get my haltech ecu tuned at?

[zoidbergmerc]

GT Garage does mine

Pro Automotive is another option.

Boost Automotive if you want to go up north, Brad's really nice.

Do you know how much gt charge for just a tune? Thanks

[zoidbergmerc]

no but I do know their phone number.

'A tune' is not a fixed thing... so it's hard to shop a price for 'a tune'.

Nick at GT is good at what he dose and depending on how much time he spends doing what with your car will depend on what he charges you... it's not very common that a car will roll into his workshop with zero issues/problems etc and only needs 'a tune'.

Just go have a chatt with him, do as much of the preperation work your self as you can and book it in.

Mainly I just need an idle and boost spiking fix as the person who tuned my car struggled with those 2 things as he usually only does power fc's. I didn't have the problems before the tune so I am guessing it's in the tune. Thank you Justin

if he couldn't get that right it will most likely be more than those issues

They're usually the two most time consuming things to get right... Idle issues could be almost anything and as for boost, I'd just install a turbotech boost T and solve all your issues all at once.

What else did you change before the haltech install and initial tune? I'd be looking at pressure testing your intake and looking for leakes/split hoses and or missing vac lines.... clean your iac motor etc and making sure your intake is all sealed up properly.

What's the idel doing?

The initial tune didn't have those problems, this is the second haltech tune but by a different guy.

The idle is just dying (mainly if you put the clutch in at 3k+ revs) and will stall at times or come very close.

The changes from initial haltech tune to this one:

850cc injectors

garrett 3076r turbo (with custom stainless intake)

bosch 040 pump

nismo fuel pressure regulator

I had heard boost T's were prone to boost spiking, is this just a myth?

Beau, in honesty you have changed alot between tunes.. you will probably find that your idle issues are as much mechanical in nature as anything else. Do you still have your stock bov? is it plumbed in as standard? are you getting reverb back through the new intake causing map sensor spikes, is your tps set correctly?

Nick can fix it for you, just don't expect a tune will be the solution... sounds like the tune needs a good looking over though.

A turbo tech boost T is as reliable as you can get.... just don't buy any other type/brand of T. Again, Nich has them on the shelf.

Cheers
