I think one thing to note is that tuning is something of an art, opinion, appraisal.

One tuner will always pick apart someone elses tune.

You go back to the original tuner, ask him about the apparent discrepancies and I'm sure there'll be some justification, excuse etc.

You can only go by people's past record and good word.

Does anyone know if the hitman will tune a factory ecu? (using a ROM emulator + chip burner?)

Got a daughterboard in my ecu and now with more mods need to get that baby tuned!

hmmm i'm contemplating doing (what might be a silly move) and going with a somewhat unknown workshop/garage out at berowra, i've mentioned them before and have heard alright things from on here and really good things from outside.

had a chat to him a few weeks ago and was pretty convinced.

i'm just scared of the old saying you get what you pay for, (dont know what he charges anyway but it would probably be less than the bigger well known workshops) coming to bite me on the bum.... but then again if that was 100% accurate everone would have the exact same most expensive tune and others would be out of business

will keep you informed

The worse case is that you hanging over all parts you want them to put in, and discover later that they have been replace with something different..and you went back there and they denied..

Also make sure you don't rely on the simple dyno print out; number could be faked, unless it's done in shootout mode....

I don't have one (yet, maybe will get one)

but I would probably go to CRD, my friend works there and I Have heard numerous good things. had a couple of small things done and no problems.

other then that, I was chatting to a guy last night who has an S15 and has had it tuned by hitman a couple times and had no probs

      Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.

      Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.

      Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
