Ben C34 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Does it need a tune or is it just running crap? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/454456-need-a-tuner-in-act-asap/#findComment-7491472 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinister industries Posted March 5, 2015 Author Share Posted March 5, 2015 It's running stupid as I'm currently up in Crestwood and see that esp is closest and have heard of them but need recommendations I bought a r33 to play with while I'm up here in Canberra and on test drive it was great on pick up of vehical after paying for it it cuts out when u punch and then just boost erratic I have put it down to coil packs and tune as its rich as and has a an apexi air flow metre gauge thing Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/454456-need-a-tuner-in-act-asap/#findComment-7491707 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben C34 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Could be other things. How much boost is it running? The r33 ecu isn't tuneable, so you can't just get a tune. A tuneable ecu installed and tuned could be close to 2000. You have to decide if it's worth it.

Sinista32 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Take it to any of the shops listed and ask for advice. Don't try diagnose over the internet. Me personally use Trojan for most everything. Labour rate and knowledge is excellent. I have used ESP for tuning and they're good for me. But as stated stock ECU is not tunable.

Got a Pulsar Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 It's probably something simple like Boost leak, dirty AFM, too much boost or even water in the coilpacks. Have a mad DIY paw over it and try some stuff. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/454456-need-a-tuner-in-act-asap/#findComment-7492195 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTRKat Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 You won't go wrong with ESP or Trojan. Go down and talk to both shops if you have time and see who you feel most comfortable with.

Ben C34 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) Do you want to tell us how much boost its running? Perhaps its running too much boost and it has a boost leak. Which would cost nothing to fix Edited March 7, 2015 by Ben C34 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/454456-need-a-tuner-in-act-asap/#findComment-7492712 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAN00H Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 What amazed me was the fact that the car was great prior to payment... I'd be querying the old owner to find out what was changed.
