Edit Facts And Figures

[macka'sxr6t]

Dingah.

......also with Edit you are even more reliant upon the integrity and inteligence of the tuner as there are more parameters that can be varied and no 'administrative restrictions' as to how far they can go to remain within (APS) manufacturers limits.

Beers cold, where are you young Danno...?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

True,

Unfortunately, once we lift the power output above 240 kw you are already outside manufactures limits.

If you were'nt so far away, I'd like join you for a cold one

By using the word “SAFE” some tuners convince customers to buy more parts which take more labor to fit so all in all more profit, and cover’s their ASS if something goes wrong so they awe on the side of caution.

It also allows for a greater margin of error in tuning with a larger window to obtain the said output allowing for variations in engine condition, Tuners, weather etc.

To make more than 245RWKw’s  with just and edit takes probably a better tuner and a good vehicle to start with and allows very little margin for error. And I suppose your bordering on the edge with A/F and some just don’t trust themselves or their tuners to do it.

I personally think most tuners play on the SAFE limits a bit to much and milk it way way to much for what its worth…$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I also have no doubt in my mind that some tuners can get 260rwkw’s safely and some who can get even more. 

Now the type of tune you would personally like may not be quite as easy as you have no margin to play with like when you have bigger injectors you have more room to custom edit to suit your request.

Just find a good tuner who looks after you in two ways

1) Great service

2) Look after your pocket $$$

Some supply GREAT service and are second to none with PR…… BUT you pay through the nose for it.

Some Car tuners are no different to Car salesman and we all know what 95% of those are like.

The problem being with all this is a custom tune and edit will get you the 250 no worries at all “IF” all things are OK and in perfect running order.

What happens when the tuners can’t reach this target and does some checking and the Air filter is blocked?

The turbo plumbing has loose clamps?

The throttle body is gummed up?

The Bov is faulty?

The fuel filter is blocked?

Fuel pressure is low?

Fuel flow is low?

Plugs are U/S at that power level?

You can’t get 98 octane Fuel?

Intercooler is blocked with Grasshoppers?

Turbo wheels are worn and losing boost?

The Cat is blocked?

So on and So on the list goes

Who pays for the custom tune then?

How much is a custom tune worth now?

How much will it cost to rectify any faults?

Etc etc etc

So why can Joe get 260 and I can only get 240?

All makes sense to me!! so I don’t see what all the fuss is about and why so many people question others results when the way I see it is most vehicles vary slightly and even more so once they have been owned by someone and have some km on them.

240>>> 250>>>260  who gives a toss as long as your happy and it works for you then just DO IT!!

I'm satisfied that the Unichip will suit my needs, I don't need the latest and greatest.

Oh dear, I have a horrible feeling I'm gonna be eating humble pie in the near future...

Love going back through all these threads to see talk of mid 200's as if it's something to get excited about, 300 if you're a crazy mofo livin' on the edge!
