I haven't paid for the custom tune yet (only the box) as he hasn't finished. I'll find out next week.

.....A nice fat curve like that, and you say he hasn't finished!! :blink:

.....can't wait till the final figures :crybaby: great results.

I have the CAPA 8 and 10psi maps in it as well as the custom tune. Mark hopes to pull a few more kw out of the custom tune yet and he will do a little work on the 8psi tune for me as I will probably use this a bit for around town. I haven't calculated the torque on the custom tune yet but it may be getting up towards the 650+ Nm which is why I will probably run the 8psi a bit until T56's are half the price they are now. Looking forward to a run down the strip very soon. You can book an appointment on some Saturdays with Mark just give them a call to arrange it. I know I'm more than happy with the job he has done and the car will go back there for anything else I want in the future.

Yeah let me know hoe much, I am going to get mine done, the only thing holding me back is time. If they do it on a Saturday, I'll get it done next available!

I spoke to paul about a tune, he claims that he max's the injectors out to 100% duty cycle to maintain over 250rwkws. This is not safe! I am sure this is a bad thing! What are the rules regarding using standard injectors!? It thought it was around 85% duty cycle.

Called in and saw Paul yesterday avo - PTE Brendale is one nice setup! And now that the Ford Smart Arst Reflash :gooff: has trashed all the good original work with my CAPA piggy back setup, looks like I'm heading in the direction of more $ for the custom setup. (Hope the CAPA guys will be kind to me on a trade up!) Rotor - might PM you ltr...

I understand your concern rednut99 but my AFR's are as good as or better than the standard tune. I was very particular in asking Mark to pull back the tune anywhere required to keep it safe. Outright horsepower is not a concern for me (whether it was 240, 245 or 250rwkw) it just had to be safe. On some of the earlier runs it had Lamda values around 0.76/0.77 I think which is why he pushed on further.

I will have to wait a bit longer.... the tunes for the mark2 arent quite ready to go..... plus I need to get injectors and a custom tune to top it off..... hoping in the next few weeks..... Mark is wanting to get a good mark2 program prepared first.... he wasnt happy with the original tune out of the box :k24t:

The car is great. It is the first time I have actually really enjoyed driving it so far. It was such a step down in performance from my RX7 to the XR6T. The car pulls nice and hard through the midrange in particular. Go and get Mark to give it a tune. If you are lucky enough to have good valve springs like mine then you will have a pretty cheap upgrade. You might want to book in soon though as I'm having trouble finding a time free to get mine back in there.
