here we go again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:rolleyes:

Andy Kuc (pronounce KUTZ) @ Pro Automotive

or Nick Summers @ GT garage....

only 2 people to talk to, both know RB's inside and out!!!

I use Andy, but only because he's been a good mate for 15 plus year's..

Cheers Jon

Hey guys just wonderin who everyone thinks is the best tuner in TAS I have nearly finish my 26/30 build and want to know who I shoul get to tune it

what does your 26/30 consist of?

stock bottom end with a 26 head?

forged bottom end, big cams and port job?

anyone that tunes can get an engine running,

its the ones in the know that can get the most out of it

hey mate this is whats getting done/has already

T04r top mount turbo

blitz 660cc injectors

straight throught 3" exhaust

apexi afc neo piggy back ecu

bosch 040

malpassi fuel pressure reg

piping kit

everything else pretty much stan dard

Mods i am in the process of doing/building

upgrading to bosch 044 with surge tank

mahle pistons and rings

forged h beam conrods

ported head

sump adaptor

rb30 bottomend bored .040 acid didpped and all that

ross harmonic balancer

apexi power fc djetro

crank balanced and all that

race bearings

arp head studs

cosmetic head gasket

Unless you have an immac tidy setup & have excess money OR are already chummy with Kutz, as a random off the street you'd be far better off at GT.

Summers is a top bloke, does exactly what you want and does it well for a decent price. Won’t turn his nose up at backyard jobs and doesn’t have a superiority complex like certain other tuners seem to... He also isnt scared to push a car a bit closer to the limits it was built to handle (on request).

I’ve only ever had and heard of good experiences, which I definitely couldn’t say about many other places in TAS…

These are exactly the reasons I choose GT Garage over pro automotive.

Andy does awesome work, but so do Nick and Ben plus they are just friendlier blokes.

Cheers yea I went to gt before and they were grate just wondered if there was anyone closer to launnie but don't mind the drive anyway

there is boost automotive in launceston, but i'd avoid them like the plague

not all bad storys from them, but enough that you don't want to take your chances (plus he will try and sell you a haltech for $1,000,000)

yea i did go through him once with my old ecu but he chargeder a fortuen and my car wouldnt even start was just shit really

    • How f**ked am i? what would happen if i leave the magnet inside there? 
    • I'll update you guys when i get home from work, im going to try to fish it out.  I just realized that i can't even drop the oil pan. The whole front diff and axles are connected to the oil pan... is it even possible to drop the oil pan without taking out the motor?  
    • So recently at the track had experienced a loss of throttle after a period of WOT after installing the emtron ecu, recently did some logging to troubleshoot the issue and found the ECU was cutting due to a low oil pressure issue. Going over the log can see that while accelerating at 4k rpm will see 100 PSI of pressure and holding steady at that level until getting off the throttle which then after can see as low as 25 PSI at 3-4k rpm and will recover back to a normal level after that.   Wondering if anyone has an idea what could be the cause as it just feels abit strange and i dont feel like it could be a sensor issues just due to it clearly sitting at a good pressure until off throttle, in the attached can see a 3rd and 4th gear pull but can even perform great through 3 and 4 gears of WOT but still once off throttle and getting back on it will see pressure drop.
    • There are a few different ways of doing it. I'm currently running two 1000cc pre-TB nozzles and PWM the pump for control. I'll be moving over to a constant pressure system and direct port. I'll run the pump off a regular relay, have it cycle on roughly 5psi before I start injecting to build pressure and then PWM a WMI solenoid (It's basically an injector that can take a lot of pressure and not corrode with water and meth.) The solenoid feeds the 6 direct port ~200cc nozzles. I'll also keep one ~250cc pre-TB nozzle to help keep IAT's in check.  Safety will be a little different as well. I used to use a pressure switch but will be moving over to a pressure sensor between my solenoid and nozzles. I'll trigger my solenoid and if I don't see specific pressure within a specific timeframe (e.g 100psi within a second, 175psi within 2 seconds), I kill it and revert back to non WMI maps the same way I did it before with 4D in Haltech. I was just figuring out the timers in my ecu last night. They made that a little more complicated than I would have liked... I wish Haltech offered a larger set of logic/math functions like other ecu's do. I can't do very much with just AND's and OR's.  I've been asked to do fuel/ignition mapping on a medium bore engine at work in May (192L V16). Being the only programmer in my region and having went and opened my mouth about knowing the ins and outs of fuel/ignition mapping, I have now been deemed an expert. Fun fun. The entirety of the logic and algorithms are programmed in C on a PLC. As I spend more time figuring it all out, I like what I see and eventually I may consider doing the same as a pet project to replace my ecu.   
    • This would be interesting, would you feed it via a 2nd row of injectors? Or just usual WMI nozzles?
