Their basic tune, which is done in like 2-3 hours, is exactly what it is - basic tune.

the ig tune which Im getting has the 2 cold start tests n tune and check ups, also getting fuel pump fitted which threw the times back a bit.

and I also get the check ups later on and when I do more mods, its a simple - on the dyno n fix up

comes with a warranty too :)

Whats the cost like if you, say add another mod and, need it "re-tuned". I assume it would be cheaper as the previous tune suits the cars setup and your only changing the air fuel ratio most of the time (for say air filters, or dump pipes) rather than the ignition timing etc. Or am I talking crap because I have no idea? :P

Strange that they're telling you it needs a cold start test...

It's a PFC. No need to do anything with the cold start, seriously, there's nothing to be done at all. If it was a Microtech or other then thats fair enough.

Mine has been tuned by Yavuz at Unigroup, hes a great guy and the prices are probaly the best around locally, but unfortunately he only takes payment by cash which isnt very convenient for me (I like to put on credit card then pay off), my car goes into CRD this week for a turbo and all supporting mods upgrade so I will report back on how that tune goes too.

The FC does have a cold start set-up and to do a decent tune with substantial mods the vehicle really does need to be kept over night, Anyone with half an idea can get the cold start right with one atempt so two nights is a bit extreme.

Unigroup are good,

CRD are good as too are Just engine management.

Depends soely on your budget and how far your willing to travel really.

I ran on the base PFC maps for over a month. Started perfect everytime.

My HITMAN tune only took 90 mins.....but I did already install it meself prior. I think he also loaded a template map from his data-logit and modified it though which would have made things alot quicker

    • full send the cnut, do this   fark the wrapping and/or stick on siet. These guys are the ones to go to: https://www.realthermo.com.au/  
    • Just had a look, they don't. Fuelling on the base map is purely alpha-N, and the ignition table is MAP. Remember it's just a base map to get the car moving  
    • Hi everyone, I’m Dave from Canberra. Here's a few pics of my 1992 R32 GTST coupe which I imported back in 2006. Only mods so far are HKS Hi-power cat back exhaust, K&N filter, ATC Volanti steering wheel, Pioneer stereo, amp and sub. This was my daily driver up until 2015 and sadly hasn’t been driven at all in the last 5 years due to marriage, work, and kids taking up most of my time and spare cash.As such its in need of a bit of TLC and one of my goals for this year is to get it back to running condition and maybe look into club/historic rego. I’ve joined SAU so I can ask a few questions along the way (although I promise to google Current Problem +SAU beforehand!)
    • From talking to the mx5 guys the NC doesn't actually need bonnet vents like the earlier NA and NB models, due to a better designed cooling system and undertray design There's plenty of them used as street cars and weekend track toys running anywhere from around 170 to 250kw with stock non vented bonnets, I initially was going to get some bonnet vents, but, as they are not actually required, I'll put vents on hold for a while and just monitor temps, though I do need to get something to actually monitor engine oil temps though, coolant temp can be pulled from the OBD2, but the oil gauge in the car is not actual oil temp, it is only a calculation based off coolant temp and RPM ☹️ They do recommend upgrading the radiator, which I have already done with a triple pass, and the only other thing they recommend for a street car is heat management, like I talked about above to protect bits in the engine bay from radiant heat, and to either replace the nearly 20 year old plastic coolant expansion tank, which I have done, or get a aftermarket alloy jobbie for some bling They did also say that if I wanted to track the car on occasion a oil cooler and sump baffle would be required, and as I already have had a sump baffle installed when the engine was out......... I'm going to get a oil cooler with a thermostat....... just in case I do eventually track the car, but probably not, but still maybe...🤪
