sargo Member 107 Member For: 18y 7m 5d Location: Brisneyland Posted 17/01/07 06:19 AM Share Posted 17/01/07 06:19 AM Paul from Elite Automotive spent some time with my car recently. I had a custom edit done towards the end of last year which felt great from the seat of the pants but would ping in P2 and P3, would run on down hills with no throttle and would idle all over the shop. Could not get under 16l/100k out of the thing even driving miss daisy. (Elite did not do this tune).The tuner was not in Brisbane so I thought I would bite the bullet and give Elite a go. Explained my mods to Paul and Tim and discussed what I wanted from the tune.Picked up the car in the afternoon and was pleasantly surprised by the results (264kw) on my BA MKII 6 speed manual with a CAI, filter, centre mufflerectomy, metalcat and Monza cooler.What was even more surprising was the way the car drove. The power came on smoothly and hung around longer, the issues with the throttle running on were gone and it idles better than a stocker. I went for a run from Archerfield to Virginia and back and recorded 12.2l/100km and didn't spare the ponies.Very happy with Paul and Tim, need to go back now for valve springs and injectors. Anybody spot me a couple K?Sargo Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/31870-new-tune-new-car/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured that was a bit of a trade off What PSI is the 264 at?

We aim to please and that is the bottom line.For the person who asked about boost it was a peak of 12psi and we droped it off so it does not lean out. Alot of happy Elite customers out there.
