Hey guys,

I went to Hitman Ignition Tuning today to tune my SAFC-2. I drove in with 147rwkw and drove out with 191.6rwkw. You do the math (i suck).

The service was A1 and he even fixed a few problems i had with the car (timing, spark plug gaps).

Here is the dyno graph:

My car is an AUTO r33 gtst, fmic, 3" turbo back and a pod.

and heres a few pics i took.

Matt was very willing to explain every step during the tune which is why i felt i had to post this. He's definately a top grade dyno tuner.

Here is his web site if you guys want to contact him.

50rwkws with just the safc

that sounds like bs to me

( not being rude champ)

wat also was done ehaust and pod

50rwkws is f*&%en heaps man u wont get that much from any mod apart from engine and a big turbo

james

with the exhaust, fmic and pod i was running 147kw because it was running mega rich.

its not bs.

maybe you should know what you're talking about before you post bs comments.

(not being rude champ)

I have an auto and have been modding 4 3 years and 50 rwkw IS BS

compleat BS

Not being rude ether

mine r33 auto

3' ful exhaust

fmic with plumb back

pod

ebc

255rwhp @ 10 psi

so your thread interests me and i have been doing this to my auto for a while so when we (auto boys) pull big power i am interested

i had an safc 2 fitted and got 10rwkws

could have been my tuner but the guy is knowen 4 pulling huge hp (and blows turbos all the time)

so that is y i am amazzed, your car must have been running like a pig

also can you flat foot it without poping

i found a few extra kws and a good power band

sorry about insult did not mean anything but you might get more liners a bit ify with that massive gain

james

Security ok champ wat next in the mod angle

i am going the emanage i think but you might have changed my mind

shift kit

fuel system

i recon your turbo is hiflowed is it standard wat psi is it at

and can you put your foot flat to the ground without poping

sorry about all the qs but i realy am interested not enough auto boys

and wat do you want out of it

james

yeah man.. Hitman definately knows his shit.

he uses Haltech engine management but i'd probably go with pfc when i do a manual conversion.

nah my turbo is stock but next mod in line is a t3/4 hybrid (internal gate). maybe get into the 220-240kw range. i'd probably go for the emanage too if i havent gotten the manual conversion by then.

im running 10psi but it spikes up to 12psi mid range for some reason.

basically im looking for a weekday work horse/street racer/weekend worrior(drags)

could have been my tuner but the guy is knowen 4 pulling huge hp (and blows turbos all the time)

WOW! if he is known for blowing turbos he must be really good. i've always thought that being able to damage peoples cars is a sign of a really good tuner... what's his name? my daihatsu needs a quick tune up.

This is an interesting thread

Security: Lets not mislead people into thinking that 50rwkw gains are achievable through the use of an S-AFC, especially on a car like yours that is virtually stock because they arent - end of story.

The ONLY way that you could find that much more power is if your car was running like absolute shite beforehand. The gain is not soley attritbuted to your S-AFC.

It could also be argued that that power figure looks a tad optimistic for an automatic RB25DET with the mods you have listed.

How could you say that Nick , the guy has it all in writing 191.6 kw, ah and he has a big polished fron mount too ....at 102 kmh , that indicates 2nd gear ..... How can you compare power of that car to a manual in 4th gear ... you cant , its just a figure thats all .

Links you are on the money mate 2nd gear with the aid of the torque converter ....

So what are you saying Jerry? Im stating that in order to suddenly realise a gain in power such as this, the car must have been running pretty badly before and Hitman has no doubt corrected various issues to regain lost power, as well as tuning the S-AFC.

Perhaps we can see a dyno reading of how the car was running before the cleanup and tune?

We wouldnt want people to think that an S-AFC with a tune can instantly get you 50rwkw - Thats my point.

My only question is, the "before-tune" figure was under 150rwkw, 147rwkw I think. Would this be a little low considering that the mods were already there?

Maybe something to do with the dyno to generate a lower initial figure? Not 100% sure. When I first dynoed my car in "almost" stock form, it came up with 159rwkw... so it seems a little low. The current setup is getting me 194.6rwkw - maybe his final figure isn't the question, but the intial figure?

    • I have been being VERY quiet about what you're alluding to, as it is something that ticks me off... The number of cars from factory that run coil overs is HUGE! Most of them these days do... The other part that annoys me, is people saying "Well all the incabin adjustable suspension is illegal by blah blah blah"... If that's the case, then why can I buy a car brand new that can do it if, FULL STOP in cabin adjustable suspension is illegal...   Also, I could just chuck some aftermarket shocks in my car, throw the stock springs on, after my blue slip, dump my super low springs back in. Same shock and spring style setup... Hell, they could also be the same colour springs etc.     I'm voting, BlueSlipper didn't want to touch the above car for some reason. Whether it be some sort of bias against the car, the owner, them maybe having previously done dodgy shit and now they're being super careful in case they get slapped in the face by the Gumbyment again... Find a new blueslip place.   And can confirm as you had said, yes there are holy bibles of vehicle heights, and all sorts of other suspension stuff. Heck your run of the mill mechanic, and tyre shop has access to all of that stuff. It's how they do wheel alignments...
    • Funny story Heading to Sydney this morning on the HWY there was some slow traffic, so I gave it the beans and midway through my overtaking "power run" I lost all power It seems that I missed a hose clamp,  and the MAF and filter went WiFi To make this more problematic, the little tool kit that lives in the boot, is sitting in the sun room at Goulburn......LOL Luckily for me I found a bit of steel on the side of the road that could be used like a rusty and bent flat head screw driver to tighten it up enough that it got me into Sydney, it is now all tight like a tiger with the aid of a 8mm socket Note to self: Use my brain and double check stuff, and always keep that little tool kit in the car for when I have a brain fart
    • Oh, and as for everyone with their fuel economy changes, I switch between E10 and 98 in the company car. Even do when I had personal cars that could run on E10. You know what changed my fuel economy in any noticeable way? How I drove, and where I drove. Otherwise, say on full tanks of just back and forth from work only (So same trips, same sort of traffic), couldn't notice a difference that I can correlate to the type of fuel in use. In the current vehicle, that's over 42L of USABLE fuel. While 98 is all "more energy dense", it also has higher knock resistance as it takes more energy to get it to ignite too. The longer hydrocarbons, typically more tightly bound. So running the same ignition map, can also produce less power, if there isn't enough time to get it all burnt through properly, as yep, the flame propagation speed is different from lower octane fuel to higher (Higher has a lower flame propagation, due to the more tightly bound and harder to self ignite funs. This is also typically where, a vehicle that is designed purely to run on 91 (Whether it be E10 or normal 91) usually sees absolutely no real world difference in fuel economy for the normal man, woman, or dog.
    • We've got some servos around me that have 91 with E10, 91 (no E10), 95, and 98. At those stations the change from 91 E10 to 91, is typically around 8c/L.   But lets not get started on the price of fuel in Oz. It's ridiculous. All the service stations around me, bar one, the price of fuel has been over the $2 mark per litre for the cheapest, 98 being around $2.45. That one service station is a CostCo, fuel from it comes from the same refineries, and makes no pitstops, it runs great, including the 98. In fact, I've had no issues on CostCo fuel, but plenty of issues at other stations!. The CostCo fuel, was $1.65 roughly this week for 94 with E10. $1.88 for 98. Servos directly across from it, $2.10 for 91 E10, and $2.48 for 98. The part I had to laugh at? If I drive multiple HOURS away from Brisbane, say out near Nanango, or Kingaroy, or even out to Goondiwindi, the price of their fuel, is the same as what it is at the CostCo... Oh, and that BP servo at Goondiwindi is HUGE and goes through epic turnover of fuel, so it's not sitting there for weeks going to shit. And what blows me away, my mate is one of the people who drives the Fuel Tanker all around QLD, delivering to all those places. At the same company his previous role was doing the "local haul" deliveries... Same truck, same driver, same pickup point it all comes from. So you tell me, how the hell it is 60c/L CHEAPER for fuel, when nearly all else is equal, except they require a B-Double to drive half a day out of Brisbane, and half a day back, every second day, compared to the delivery that can be under 30 minutes drive from the fuel pickup point... Not to mention, go five blocks down the road, and Ampol to Ampol will vary 30c/L... And I've had this conversation with my mate... The way it's priced, is just typical, pure and utter rubbish... He also does runs from Brisbane, to all over QLD, down to Newcastle, Sydney, Nowra, Melbourne, Geelong, and even out to parts of the NT depending on the companies needs. His main stuff is all the longer distance away from home for a few days at a time, then when he's back, he loves to just pickup extra shifts wherever he can in whichever truck, hence all the weird different places.   Oh, as for getting E10 into all the fuels in Australia... It was very quickly highlighted, that we don't have enough biomass available to use to make E10 sustainably like they require, and it would dramatically cut into our, and the worlds food chain supply...   I vote we all just start running on liquid methane gas... Plenty of that just getting tapped off at tips from underground decay... (Note, this is pure just stupid commenting. I could very easily highlight the reasons its not a good idea especially on scale...)
    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
