Hi folks, this is my first post & I need advice. My car series 1 XR6T 4 speed auto. I recently fitted a "X" Force exhaust, 4" dump & 3" twin, a Rapid Systems intercooler & K&N filter also cap flash. The car now runs like a garbage truck, will not rev out. Im in Maryborough QLD & there is not a shop here that can tune it. Any one know a shop they are willing to recomend or have any helpful tips?

:shocked: as said , nurse it down to Brisvegas for a custom tune ASAP :spoton:

The tunes in your Flash Box are probably generic and are not adjusted for your mods.

With these cars you can't just bolt on bits and go without a retune. Go bang.

Check the sponsors pages for members feedback.

If I were you get some bigger squirters and perhaps a fuel pump to get the best from your parts.

Fuel supply will become an issue otherwise

You definitely need a tune mate! It wont be revving hard because it will be in limp mode... Once it is tuned properly with some bigger squirters and a bigger fuel pump, all will be sweet :shocked:

Your best options for a custom tune would be Elite Auto down in Brisbane, or if you head north, Blueboost ( that's his name here ubt his real name is Dave) in Mackay will see you right.

Suppose it depends which way you want to drive.

A lot of guys from Cairns and Townsville drive a long way to see Dave because no one up there tunes them. There is a thread on here at the moment about Hanras trip south from Cairns to Mackay to visit Blueboost.

There are 2 shops in Cairns but................

Mate the day after I saw Dave he had a visit from another member on here, Joey http://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/index.php?showuser=13148 who is in Blackwater I think, a little further NW of you.

Your actually closer to Mackay then I am in Cairns!!!!

Hi,

Dave is the man to see, this is based on watching him tune several vehicle for us and he's the only one I will let touch my car.
