Getting My Car Tuned

[SargeRX8]

Hey all,

Finally saved the $ to get my car tuned. Ive called up and been to a few places and Ive narrowed it down to the above.

Advan Performance are asking $620. They will load up a preconfigured map which matches the specs of my car and do 3 - 4 hours of modifications on the dyno and an hour or two of cold start tuning.

CRD asked $750 and up for a full custom dyno tune which takes 6 - 8 hours.

Unigroup said $700 up for a full custom dyno tune

Toshi(member on here) said $500 for a full custom street tune + dyno tune.

People often say go for a full custom tune. My car has simple bolt on mods so I could save some dosh by going to advan performance and their work is very reputable. I'm not asking for people here to tell me to search and read. Those are the options. Choose one as you wish and if you like, have your say!

the advan tune will be a full custom tune. they will simply load a map from a previous tune based off similar mods onto your ecu and then customise it from there. loading on a map from a previous tune just gives them a base to start with that will save them a bit of time. it is no less custom than any of the other tunes though.

I'm also interested in geting my car tuned soon.

My mate recommended MRC in Castle Hill though.

Was wondering if you called them up for a quote at all?

Cheers

To this point, Ive never heard from these guys. Looking at their site though, I'd prefer to go with a tuner more specific to my car(crd/advan).

Get some more votes in, but most probably I will be booking in this tuesday for an advan tune. If it goes ahead, I will post my results in terms of power and then my fuel consumption with the same driving conditions. Technically, on a less rich tune I should make more power than what I am making now on the same amount of boost(225rwkw @ 14psi). Lets see what happens!
