Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 5m 3d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 15/11/13 10:29 AM Share Posted 15/11/13 10:29 AM Dafuq? OP said it didn't feel right for the money he spent.. It didn't 'blow the tyres off' as much as he expected.. Given he was running larger injectors on a stock tune he is probably lucky he didn't take it to the drag strip.. I agree normally that people need to use a drag strip to gauge performance.. But in this case I see no relevance whatsoever.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you read the thread?He took it in for a tune, thought he got one and wasn't impressed with it.Turned out they didn't give him a tune - was still stock.Once they rectified it he was happy with the difference - was what he was expecting in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or was that the tuned readout and the tuner (for some reason) returned the car to you with the stock tune loaded (220 odd kws?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems as though I was bang on the money.....When I rang up to take my car back, I basically told him that I wasn't happy with the tune and that it felt quite stock.The tuner did not remember myself or the car to well, he told me to bring the car back because they warrant all their tunes.After an hour of leaving the car there he called me up and asked me it I took the car to another tuner at all because, are you ready for it?????The stock tune was set!!!!When I went to pick up the car he told me the car is running beautifully now and running 12-13psi with no mention of any turbo problems.How would u take that?Its called up selling, he will "fix" your turbo, load the real tune and bingo. He is a miracle worker and off you go happy. Lucky he found those bent fins HEY. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
