Philbo84 Member 20 Member For: 16y 1m 11d Posted 03/06/11 03:57 AM Share Posted 03/06/11 03:57 AM Hey allI finally made it to the 400kw Club After atleast 10tunes I finally have one that works and works well. Thnx to Elite Automotive. All other tuners (gold coast, bayside, yatala) I used had the car for days and couldn't give me what I was after so if anyone out there is looking to go big on Horse Power and wants a tune that works and incoporates after market cams, gives you good fuel milage (500ks to a tank I get) and drivability dont go past Elite. To give you an idea on my dramas if you have aftermarket cams or planning on buying a set I found elite were the only ones who could get my car tuned properly with my cams, everyone elese said take them out or promise you the world and when I got the car back all it did was stall, stink of fuel, cover the back of my car in unburnt fuel and produce bugger all power. So learn from my mistakes trust me its cost my pocket probs in excess of 7gs in tunes atleast. I will be able get out to some cruise days now since the car is finally drivable again.

Philbo84 Member 20 Member For: 16y 1m 11d Posted 03/06/11 09:28 AM Author Share Posted 03/06/11 09:28 AM Haha I wish I found them at the start two.......Have so many parts just lying around. spare engine at home the original from car 45000ks on it with all upgraded valve springs and lighten pully drive wheel lol the big black wheel on the crank.......Spare clutch which would burn out if I used on this setup, Spare intercooler and stanless pipes for cooler, larger front housing and waste gate left over from my old turbo, 60lb injecters and the list goes on. So yeah wish I had found Elite at the start of my lil project not the end of it might have saved me a small fortune or I could have spent the money on another ford hehe. But seriously if your doin some serious upgrades and try to go the cheap way out to save a few hundred dollars on parts and this and that but want to go big just go big don't stuff around cause as I found out u spend more in the long run by being a tight arse looking for cheap deals rather than quality deals. Plus I got the HP bug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philbo84 Member 20 Member For: 16y 1m 11d Posted 03/06/11 09:34 AM Author Share Posted 03/06/11 09:34 AM Haha Yeah I thought had done the research and if u knew the people I had tryed youd think they would have done the right thing, but no need for naming and shaming I guess even though it costs me lots of dosh.Put it this way got told I had 600hp and had less than 350hp by one tuner with the t51r set up, the other one didn't even touch car sat there for 2 weeks, another one left the flap of the turbo so boost was all over the place once it went over 13 pound boost so yeah I have had my bad experiences, but now there is light at the end of the tunnel and I am as happy as a pig in sh!t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I say to people you can have a guitar tuned but it still sounds like crap, but its still tuned.The time and effort we put into our results hopefully have spoken for themselves.Cheers Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
