Car doesnt need to be tuned to its limits so its good insurance to be left on just incase you get a bit of dud fuel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And lucky I never mashed the throttle too much.I took it back to the tuner starting with M and he said I think its your turbo timer glitching with the factory computer I then told him it never had a problem with black mac, I then told him I was going back to black mac and that his tune was so laggy to drive around and that it was doughy as he then handed me my flash tuner and sent me on my way. After spending more than 7 grand with him and 800 for his bodgy tune that's wat I got people like that shouldnt be in business now I can drive around in drive and not sports mode cos of laggy crap tune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregor Member 459 Member For: 16y 3m 29d Posted 22/09/10 01:53 AM Share Posted 22/09/10 01:53 AM if he tuned your car to 15:1 under WOT id be hitting him up for a refund on the tuning. Even a novice tuner should be able to set a good AFR and get the timing right if they have half a clue on basic tuning concepts. The thing that sets the pros apart from that is the little tricks like the auto stall, getting good idle etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely "Black Mac" would have printed it out when they explained it to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I said stuff it and looked at the speedo I was doing 105 ks and I floored it a bad mistake as the the car started to fishtail agressively through the intersection I backed off and as I went through the lights, I looked to my left and saw mr plod the bloody cops. Hope you boys are liking paragraphs by now LOL anyway the blue lights started to flash so I pulled over I thought I was a gonner mr plod came over and said breathe into the breathalizer how fast you think you were going through the intersection son and I said oh around 120 which was 138 when I last looked down and he said lucky we didnt have a gun on you or you would of got 1000 dollar fine cos that was 80 k zone before lights and cos you were honest on your way.
