hi reflex,

i have recently done this, heres what i found. initial powerfc tune $350. then it may need readjustment from knocking or leaning out/running rich etc, should be free as its a retune or fix of previous tune. injectors to fit is about $250 as plenum has to come off. unsure about hiflow fitting. speak to ice performance for pricing gerald or nigel. www.iceperformance.com.au there in chentleham.

my first tune was at protek, they magically decided to run 0.90 bar and maxed out the fuel pump and then dropped the tune cos the fuel pump couldnt keep up, stocker unit. i never asked for boost to be turned up. the tune was left like that i had massive knock and it was running rich. was fixed by ice performance the 2nd time. id say ice performance

I think i will try to bolt the high flow on myself. Will it run on the standard ecu if I keep it on low boost (7psi) til I get the injectors and pfc fitted and tuned.

Creatd are more local to me but i dont mind driving. Has anyone had there car tuned by them?

So having injectors fitted and the Apexi PFC tuned im looking at about $600-650???

I have put off going the high-flow turbo for a while. Creatd seem to be the closest tuner for me. For a full tune $350 seems pretty resonable. My cars pretty stock, can i assume i will have 185-195rwkw after pfc tune with the following mods:

-stock turbo

-cai + pod filter

-3" exhaust from the turbo back

-upgraded fuel pump(not sure what one) & surge tank

-FMIC

-iridium plugs

-boost set at 12psi

Take it ICE i rang around for months before my good gear went into my car looking for a tune, nigel and gerald were most helpful and were straight up with me about what to expect power and cost wise. there also perfectionists is the job isnt right they just keep ticking away until its 100%.

    • Are these a plug and play setup, and do they need a tune, like a haltech ecu etc? Thanks
    • Nice work on the paint. Those 3 studs are long as. 
    • Hi everyone, still chasing a bunch of this stuff. Thanks
    • Been over 2 months since I have done anything on the S15 and had a day off today so got stuck into mounting the radiator and intercooler. I ended up using factory bottom mounts as bolted in and I did order some gktech top brackets but didn't work with the PWR radiator so made up some with aluminium flat bar. Spent way to long on them but pretty happy how they are. Next job was the intercooler. Used some more aluminium flat bar and did the bottom mounts first. Top was easy as just one long piece and 2 90 degree coming off rad support and welded them on. The bumper support required some notching to let the outlets sit where I want so will add some reinforcement later to strengthen it. I have also bought ecu and waiting for it to arrive. Went with a Link g4x Xtreme but will be adding a ptmotorsport expander to add a few extra inputs over CAN. Went through a few different configurations on pclink to get what I want to allow future expansion for sensors and gearbox upgrades. Ordered gktech rear arms but looking at the hardrace lower control arms to have some extra adjustment too will see how the alignment looks after first setup. Got 2 more weeks of work before shut down and will have almost 4 weeks to work on this so planning on hopefully firing up mid January.   Also bought a 2015 brz with a heap of good gear, did noosa hill climb a month back. Owned it for 3 days changed alignment and sent it. Finished the weekend 2nd in class and only .3 off the 180sx best time last year. MCA Red coilovers, gktech rear lca, bolt on lock kit and tie rods, whiteline toe arms, cusco 1.5way diff and 4.5 ratio, endless brake pads, headers, exhaust, perrin intake and e85 tune. Electronic steering adjustment, nankang crs with koya wheels 17x9 +35. Have bought rear traction arm and relocation kit, extended studs and v3 tie rod kit. Planning on also getting flex tune as lucky to get 300km a tank with e85 and short ratio. Car is a heap of fun to drive and super easy to work on. AC in the line up at Noosa was mint in 35degree weather.
