I'm looking for a powerfc. Pref with a hand controller. Have been offered $1240 new. can anyone beat this? I don't mind if it's second hand as long as it works well.

Also, as I'm in tas I am limited to what workshops i can go to and I believe that practically none have a good knowledge in tuning them.

Therefore I think it would be wise to come over to melb and get it tuned.

Where/who is a kick ass workshop that really know how to tune the powerfc well in Melbourne?

Oh can anyone approximate tune costs? The car is running pretty shit so it would need a fair amount of tuning i reckon. Mods include turbosmart boost controller (7psi and 10psi but can change obviously), front mount 600x300x76, 3 inch cat back (i havn't checked to see if its turbo back but i doubt it)and turbosmart bov which I want to swap back to standard as I'm having some stalling issues.

Thanks for any help.

www.nengun.com and www.greenline.co.jp are the two cheapest sources for parts I know of, but I think they would be more than $1240 delivered (unless the exchange rate has changed it again). So I'd say $1240 with a hand controller is a damn good price :(

*EDIT: Alot of people seem to be having problems with stalling at low RPM with an atmo vent BOV. I'm guessing it runs so rich at low rpm it stalls. I believe skyrices run 100% duty cycle on the injectors when you back off? Is this true? If it is, does it happen at all rpm / boost pressures, or only above a certain point? Sorry, not trying to hijack

Jaff, We have a brand new FC for your car in stock. $1000 with no HC, but we have one to tune with, and can obviously source one for you if you need it.

Tuning is around $500 depending on any other vehicle issues, and we have successfully tuned plenty of them, and have full in-house dyno facilities.

Give us a call for any further info.

    • Really, anyone modifying a car isn't being financially smart. We're doing it for the things we love. And honestly, a high revving, light, NA car is actually pretty darn fun. I used to have a Swift Sport, and I miss that thing as a daily, and yes, doing something like some intake and exhaust stuff would have made minimal gains, but would have bought an even bigger smile

    • Yeah, playing with naturally aspirated is not smart bang for your buck power wise, but then I've never been known for being smart when it comes to cars and modifications 
    • I mean from V8 world there are gains to be made in intakes and such over stock items, but definitely only if you tune them. We're talking about I dunno, 10kw here and there on a 300KW v8, gains made by tuning in the 0.2 AFR that it changes so YES but also no you won't notice it other than the sound. Duct the air as mentioned 750,000 times and you will notice happier IAT's which definitely make a difference N/A. I mean my unsubstantiated guess is you'd go from 140kw with everything stock (after cams) to 145kw with everything and a tune :p
    • I decided to "spend baby spend", and "risk it for the biscuit" 2 Orders were made buying parts that I "don't really need but really really want" totalling $2.5k AUD 1: In stock items (intake plenum and throttle body) 2: The airbox thingie, with no real ETA for them getting more stock, so patience will be required
