I have been in there once only problem at the moment is I'm a good 7 hours flight away from NZ :3gears: So my only way of contact is email.

They said they like to use Haltech intercepters to tune them but can use CAPA. They're just really expensive was going to be like $4.2k just for tune injectors fuel pump cai and maybe wastegate mod....

I just about shat myself when I saw it... $1500 just for the injectors $700 for the fuel pump. Just sent them a snotty email ... " I ain't no mechanic but I no when I'm getting ripped off" lol. Would be better of buying gear from rapid and fitting it myself then taking them to get it tuned... Still $2480 for XCT flash box and Custom tune. They charging about $500 for some sensor that they bolt infront of the front pipe to monitor exhaust gasses when on dyno???? anyone heard of that before Lol :shocked::omg:

Injectors, buy your own $500.

Flash box is $650, again buy your own.

Valve springs $400 and again buy your own.

Fuel pump $250 for a Walbro, rinse repeat, buy your own.

Then fit and tune, bargain on $1000 for the tune. Maybe less but would have that in mind. Fitting, of injectors and valve springs probably $1000. Fuel pump you can do yourself if vaguely handy.

Once injectors are fitted you need the tune to drive it.

Ask Robin at Torque Performance for a quote if you supply all parts.

HESUS that's a rediculous quote!!!

Its cause in NZ we dont have that much competition like they do in OZ and the number of people who want to mod.

Torque performance is up in Auckland mate.

I have also heard good things about Eastern Automotive.

3000kms till I can get my tuned!
