markadeane Inactive Members 1 Member For: 11y 8m 17d Posted 21/04/13 08:49 AM Share Posted 21/04/13 08:49 AM Hi all,I recently acquired a well-cared-for '03 BA XR6T and I'm looking at my options for a performance tune.I'm really only looking to go to what is commonly regarded as "Phase 1". I don't want to overcook the whole thing, just looking for a bit more punch-in-the-guts when I really drop the hammer.Can anyone recommend a reputable tuner in the lower North Island to take things up to the next level? I'm based in Wellington NZ, but happy to drive a few hours for the best deal.CheersMark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They tuned my BA XR6t and it's a nice tune, 250rwkw. Their site doesnt say much about Fords but they know what they are doing. Give them a call and tell them what your after and decide from there.http://www.speedtechnz.com/shop.html?__utma=1.968893218.1354777891.1363685855.1366597545.3&__utmb=1&__utmc=1&__utmx=-&__utmz=1.1366597545.3.3.utmccn%3D(referral)%7Cutmcsr%3Dspeedtechnz.com%7Cutmcct%3D%2FAbout.html%7Cutmcmd%3Dreferral&__utmv=-&__utmk=221707417 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zane of MAXX performance out of Melbourne is coming to NZ (Auckland) to tune some cars. (Zane is a kiwi) This is a awesome opportunity for us here in NZ to have our cars tuned by someone who tunes barras everyday! Experienced with HP Tuners, SCT, PCMTEC.Exact dates are to be confirmed but likely to be next month (May) If there is a enough he is hoping to make it a semi regular thing, I will be having my personal car tuned by him when it’s done. Check out some of there work, https://www.facebook.com/MaxxPerformance58/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
