Croydon GTR

[jeje_6475]

hi guys, what do you reckon about Croydon Autosport? are they very good to tune the power FC for GTR?

They quote me $800 to tune it, is it worth it?

[BiZzReVhEad]

Thats wat they charge for a first tune i beleive.

However i think its worth it if u need it.

I havent had any experience with them personally but im sure theres some ppl here who can tell u what they have to offer .

Short answer: Yes

You dont want to take the cheap option when it comes to tuning.

[GIGOLO]

CRD tuned my GTS-t and I found it drove better than the previous tune. I found Jim helpful and good at explaining things, although to avoid confusion, be as specific as you can when detailing the works needed to be carried out.

Lance is a bit of an A-hole though..........

lol @ lance, hes ok he just doesnt like to talk alot.

Jim tuned my mates WRX, did an awesome job.

i would reccomend them

IMO its worth the extra money

[jeje_6475]

seconded. Adam and Ben certainly know what they're doing.

$800 is very very fair for a quasi fiberglass/faux carbon bonnet.

Don't pull prices out of your rear end without some kind of justification.

Other tuners can also do a good job for example at UAS.

I apologise otherwise.

About what CRD charge... sometimes I hear it's $600, $700 and up.

Ask what others charge for a dyno tune. Just because CRD are alleged to be the best, doesn't mean others aren't as professional.

:werd:

i would never pay $800.

thats getting close the the price of a PFC in the first place.

which ruins the bargain nengun gives you

[T0nyGTSt]

You gotta ask yourself what you want to achieve. It's not about achieving the highest rwkW.

Some people believe that perhaps a dyno tune then a follow up road tune is what's needed.

You can spend a good half of a day doing this. Also you might want someone who has access to the laptop s/w instead of just the hand controller.

[williamsf1]

do CRD use datalogit and lappy as well as the hand controller? I hear some people pay $600 for a CRD tune....

[R31Nismoid]

i dropped my car off for 2 days, $600 later (or was it $500) and the car is mickey mouse.

i've had it back once for a slightly high knock (55)

thats it.

I suppose 'mickey mouse' is bad?

If you motor is of sound condition, good compression, 55 on the HC knock counter is not acceptable.
