Kevin Geary has been tuning it. Gotta remember it not an fpv so doesnt have a twin plate as std. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will get the cooler, injectors and exhaust done all at the same time.There is another place that I will never take my car to as my valve spring replacement made my engine even worse (unmentioned) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin is god when it comes to these cars...he really does know his sh*t lol@Weiner...respect bro, your a brave man...right I end my tuner talk there :D...your ute still blue? Ive seen a grey one with dark argents floating around....@rad very nice, sure wouldnt want to meet you at the lights LOL *Edit: my theory is do it once do it right, thus why I went to Torque Performance....

Is it a turbo also?As for tuner yea I have heard bad things but then I havent had an issues with tune or anything from him. Its a hard one cause some people have issues and others dont.

I would love to have the rest of your set-up After spending so much why the standard dump? I was told the 4" dump gives some gains. You might even get that extra 0.4rwkw to make 400 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rad Donating Members 48 Member For: 18y 9m 14d Gender: Male Location: NZ Posted 11/04/12 09:12 AM Share Posted 11/04/12 09:12 AM has nizpro injectors 044 pump,did score a process west surge tank off t/me but haven't fitted it yet.most of the engine work was done by the previous owner and got the capa 1 flasher so if I do the dump I'd have to buy a new flasher plus tune so for the gains I'd get for the dollars spent I don't think its worth it at the moment?

Torque do have a good name so it will probably be them. Won't have to factor travel into the cost either!You guys are lucky plenty of CHCH boys on the forum. Not many active ones up here.@RIPTIDE What colour are you and rims? Might have seen you around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
