I need a little feedback about the x3 tuner that intune motorsports sell with the preset tunes on them.

where I stand at the moment is my car is running to lean and I need a tune and injectors,I have the injectors but im not putting them in until the car is going to be tuned.but I dont have a spare 1500 for the custom tune atm...ive just been taking it easy in the car so that I dont blow the thing up.

if I buy a x3 from intune with prest tunes is there room on the box for me to get a custom tune done down the track or am I better off buying a x3 that's empty?

id like to spend the 1500 but I just cant scrape together that much all at once and im afraid if I keep driving il get some serious detonation.

so basically what I need to know is if I buy the intune x3 will it be enough with the 60lb injectors to stop the car running lean until I can save some pennies for a custom tune

the car has previously been tuned by intune by the last owner but has since had a new engine put in and im going to guess the old engine had bigger injectors becuae the car seems to hav been modified to a stage where it should have already had injectors done(full xforce exhaust,big intercooler,tial wastegate etc)

any help would be appreciated as im a fair way away from any reputable tune shops and on an apprentice wage :D

don't do it man, generic tunes are more likely to go bang bang bang than a thai hooker . . . . and they aren't as safe.

is the car still running a custom tune?

don't get a generic tune , danger Will Robinson danger. Custom tune all the way

You will also find that Intune , don't have a great rep on here.

Can't tell you that there any members on here that use them that I am aware of

Due a search on them

How do you know it's running lean?

If its tuned already then wheres the original box?

Have heard too many bad things to ever go to intune.

I have put a bid on an xcal 3 from ebay does that have to be returned to stock before I can use it on my car?

Can somebody please explain this process?

Yes it does or it will be locked to the other vehicle.

ive been told its running lean by specialised automotive in bega.I tried to get a power run on their dyno the other day but had to stop as it was unsafe.and nope I no longer have any box as I bought the car second hand..ive spoken to intune and they remember tuning the car for the last owner..as to why the engine blew..I dont know.worries me a bit but ive spoken to the wreckers where the current engine came from and they tell me it had 57000 kms on it and its from a rear end collision.the cars had a bit of a history.

all these factors probly point me towards a custom tune.but I just thought I may be able to get out of it a bit cheaper in the short term as im not the richest bloke.

cheers for the help
