BenDoCo I'm getten too old for this s**t Bronze Donating Members 4,509 Member For: 11y 13d Gender: Male Location: A big bridge over a river in South Australia Posted 08/09/15 12:12 PM Share Posted 08/09/15 12:12 PM Good to hear and I'm glad that he has re-thought his idea about afr's.I had a good chat with him about mine as they were a bit on the lean side for my liking (he didn't have a problem with it at 12.3 or whatever it was, but was more than happy to bring it back to about 12 dead for me).Oh and, my economey is excellent now -- did have a stuffed injector before re-tune though 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizkets is Drunk? Too heavy needs boost Member 5,929 Member For: 10y 8m 14d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 09/09/15 03:00 AM Share Posted 09/09/15 03:00 AM Mine was done at morpowa and its sh*t house. As I drove off the first time it seemed fine but when I got down the hill it was playing up. Revs bouncing from 500rpm to 850-900 until I stopped moving. Stalling. It was fine under wot but down low was such a pig to drive. Gave them a call and got it back to them and told what them what the isses was. Left the car all day and when I picked it up it seemed fine again until I got down the hill again. Same problems still. Worst thing was when I picked it up after a whole day I was told he loaded another customers idle tune (the other customer is on this fourm and had the same issues). If im paying top dollar for a CUSTOM tune you would expect him to fix it in my custom tune not just use someone else. So after that I tought farkem I not wasting anymore time with someone that doesn't want to spend time on it even after paying a sh*t load. So after seeing dons car and how well it turned out and the respect shown to dons car and his anal OCD ill be taking to GW when I can get my funds back in order. Hope my experience can help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skids4kids in the mid....not the bum like some Member 609 Member For: 10y 11m 28d Gender: Male Posted 09/09/15 11:06 AM Share Posted 09/09/15 11:06 AM This is a good example of what I was trying to get across some time back..........Yeah he got those cars into the 10s BACK THEN but reading what people have said (on all media platforms) about their experience --- recently --- says that, for what ever the reason, he may not be at the top of his game ATM.Things change, people (and their perception of things) change so what may have been fan-farken-tastic a few years ago may not be TODAY.What experiences have people had with tuners in Adelaide recently?It would be nice to think that people would not hold back when answering this but I understand 'if there is a need'.If you went to GW for the first time Don & hadn't told anyone on here as you knew nobody would you think the outcome would be like it is for you as the car runs now....I mean 100% the same?I'm trying to get somewhere here but just slowly....boy some people are lucky and all it takes is a little help from someone....someone willing to share.Sometimes they need to be told lift the game and they either do so or fade away....you will find the game has been lifted at a certain shop but not that it had dropped to the extent portrayed on here.....not even close....it did happen though no ifs or buts.Heinrichs doesn't tune my car anymore but I have sent people there and they have had nothing but success....maybe 3-4 in last 3 months so I don't see any reason to not send another there if one asks for a place to go.Lastly....its great to here you thoroughly enjoy your car the way you do I envy it.... Im still slowly getting there myself with this front to back build of mine just a few small bugs to squash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invictus New Member 12 Member For: 8y 4m 23d Posted 14/01/17 05:24 AM Share Posted 14/01/17 05:24 AM Hi all. I was looking for some advice on what I was looking to do. I am looking at getting a G6E Turbo and modding it to try and get around 400-450rwkw. What would need to be done from a mod point of view and the cost approx to get it done? I live in SA and have heard good things about Bruce in Lonsdale, and was wondering how he compared to some of the better known eastern shops like HPF etc?. If the 400-450 is not going to happen without madsive expence, what is the typical point where big money has to be spent? Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k31th less WHY; more WOT Site Developer 28,292 Member For: 16y 10d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 14/01/17 05:37 AM Share Posted 14/01/17 05:37 AM 3k-5k can get 300rwkw another 10k to get 400rwkw another 50+k to get 500rwkw+ (assuming reasonably reliable) these are extremely rough estimates, of course Your information is a bit old, by the way. HPF haven't done anything interesting in 10 years with an XR6T and the scene in SA has changed a lot since Bruce was the go-to guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
