The car is a fg xr6t any help would be great thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is good reason why I drive for an hour for my tuning requirements rather than go around the corner to Intune. John is hell of a nice chap, but his best work is done on v8s.I certainly would not let him anywhere near a brand new car.I best leave it at that .

I think he was trying to rip me off on injectors aswell he wanted $790 for 60lb ones didn't sound right to me, what sort of power do you think I"ll be looking at rwk with a tune and injectors on the fg?

tig Donating Members 735 Member For: 17y 4m 30d Gender: Male Location: kenthurst, Sydney Posted 11/10/08 09:40 AM Share Posted 11/10/08 09:40 AM When I first bought my BA John at Intune did just the Flash tuner + custom tune and the results were impressive to me , however when I started on the other mods things didn't work out so well with near detonation etc. As Buf -Phoon said John is a top bloke and was very helpful when I first started modding. Im booking my FG ute in next week with Autotech who has done most of the work on my BA and have been more than happy with Spiros tuning and the quality of their work. I would be pretty confident in the other advertisers here also after reading other members opinions and experiences since joining the forum and word soon gets out if something does go pear shaped on an engine.Good luck with it mate.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
