Ford_Power Member 798 Member For: 21y 7m 19d Posted 15/05/07 01:39 PM Share Posted 15/05/07 01:39 PM (edited) Spotted a White BA Typhoon at the intersection of Whitfords Ave and Trappers Dve today at the red light. I was turning right, he was going straight.I don't know if it's anyones from here, but it sure as heck had a nice sounding exhaust on it which I heard when he took off.

The guys are ex Speedworks (worked on some AWESOME modded turbo cars) and both Sean and Nick have worked on countless number of V8's etc.Thesedays they tend to see bucketloads of Subis and Evo's but Sean has tuned a fair few different cars in his time. I'll probably get him to tune an edit if hes able to do it. That way you dont get a "ghost tune" which I believe you do with a few of the local tuners..

Tubers will need the SCT advantage software to tune with the capa / sct box, not alot of tuners bother getting it as they are jap orientated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd really like him to tune my car..I guess a ghost tune is when a tuner flashes an ecu with a basemap from the original source (the company with the software..) to suit SIMILAR mods (ie injectors, pump, cai, fmic) and then he (or she!) just plays with a few bits and peices to get the highest power figure and customer comes away stoked!You see it a lot with a couple of Subaru edits / flashes (no names or workshop / tuners mentioned of course) and the customer comes away with a bit more oomph but nothing terribly exciting. These days the standard 03+ WRX / STi ecu can do all sorts of funky things like water spray (a mod you will start to see more on XR6T's in the future!) and launch control. I suppose without going a full replacement ecu (mmm Motec gold box!!) a flash is the next best thing but dyno / tuning time costs money (in some cases, more than the ecu) and some people just dont wanna spend the money!
