4ST-XR6 Member 58 Member For: 18y 6m 17d Posted 18/12/06 08:46 AM Author Share Posted 18/12/06 08:46 AM Thanks guys, I was contemplating getting a custone tune anyway, the box will be here tomorrow, so hopefully down to the dyno at during my lunch break, I wasn't goin to flash the car until I get them to check the AFR's anyway to be safe. I'm thinking of either Romano motorsport of elite automotive in brisbane for my custom tune, a mate (86Gav) has had a custom edit done at romano's and I went from 185rwkw to 255rwkw and it was good, the only thing was I had to gap the plugs down further then what they did for him, as it had a missfire under high boost conditions, it pulls like a freight train now so hes happy. Thanks again lads, I will post my figures, afr's etc, when I get them, the only problem is there is only one dyno shop where I live and being a mechanic I heard some bad stories about the place I'm goin to, Mite be better to dive the car in stock trim to brisbane and get a run on the dyno and afr's checked and get the custom edit don't straight away.

4ST-XR6 Member 58 Member For: 18y 6m 17d Posted 18/12/06 10:20 AM Author Share Posted 18/12/06 10:20 AM I wasn't goin to do the injectors here and run factory pragramming, I through the idea around to see it was possible to air bag the box down and paul could put a rough tune in it for injectors, springs and fuel pump. I then I could do the injectors, springs and pump and work, cause being a dealer we have the tools, the drive down when the box came back for a custome fine tune. But paul advised against it. so I think I'm just gonna have to be happy with a edit in the mean time cause being a mechanic its hard to justify handing over the dosh for someone else to do the other mods.thanks again for your input guyscheers Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/31167-herrod-tune/page/2/#findComment-478271 Share on other sites More sharing options...
