Can anyone recommend a place to get a decent tune? I've heard to stay away from Monster performance.

I'm running Injen CAI, Kinetix V+ Upper Plenum & soon to fit an exhaust so i want to get a tune done before i go to Townsville in December to get the air/fuel ratio back to normal and a bit more power.

Thanks

Is this for the 350z? There isn't anywhere in Mackay that I would trust.

its a shame that I don't have the gear yet, otherwise I would offer. Already have a mate wanting me to do his.

Don't really think it will need tuning i had Injen CAI, Motodyne Plenum Spacer and Fast Intension Dual Cat Back Exhaust on my 350Z and i never tuned it and it ran awesome, i also had the rev-up engine in mine which has extra 15kw form factory dunno if that would have made a difference. It's not a Forced induction car so doing those mods will not have a huge effect on the power level and getting it tuned will not do a great deal for it.

This was my initial thoughts but i had a friend recomend get a tune after i do the exhaust. I have noticed since installing the CAI that my fuel is absolutely guzzling out :/

Interesting, my Z had awesome fuel economy didn't use much fuel at all, did you play with the airflow meter sensor when you installed the CAI

Mines decreased a lot, yes i pulled the MAF out of the stock intake and into the Injen system. Didn't have any problems though it was just straight plug in. I'm probably getting not even 500km off a tank now

dont buy a turbo skyline then :P

I could be wrong but I think Ben was talking about adjusting the AFM perhaps?

I know you could do this on the VL's

but if your dead set on getting a tune I think your better off waiting till you get to Townsville. There are a few workshops there that sound trustworthy, more then I can say for here

Not sure what you have done to it but i was getting 600-700kms out my Z when i had it 8.7L per 100kms in town/highway/thrashing it didn't matter.

It's N/A bro. Yeah i think that's going to be the go i may just have to wait until then.

Ahh really, that's roughly what i'm getting per 100km though. I will fill up tonight and do a test, all i do is to and from work and out to ooralea a bit.

Oh I just meant if your complaining about fuel economy now, dont get a turbo Skyline haha. I'm lucky to get 400km around town out of mine, but I think I have some issues at the moment.

Is your tank smaller then the 350Z's? Seems to be the thing most people forget about. Complain there only getting 400km around town but then only have a 40L tank.

Find someone with a standalone wideband and go for a drive with that hooked up. Will tell you how far out your cruise mixtures are.
