flash tune perth?

[rogwick]

Good work Toddy, maybe we could express some interest (WA members) if that's the case and possibly organise some sort of discount if we get enough members on board. Did you mention you're on ozMPSclub? They might like the fact that you're advertising on their behalf promoting business for them. I would be interested, but obviously some prices would help if they are able to quote. So they have a 4wd dyno? I'm sure we can get at least 4 WA guys who would like a tune.

Good work mate.

Registering my interest here.

Jedi mind ticks and Peer pressure also holds a strong influence on me.

Yes I said I was from OzMPSclub and that a few other guys could be interested. Still waiting on a reply with some more info

I took my MPS6 upto Allstar Garage in Malaga two weeks ago as I have a CPE standback ECU I want to get connected and tuned via a decent tuner. I spoke to the tuner there (can't remember his name) a nice guy but he said he had only tuned a couple of MPS3's before (using interceptors) never a 6 in fact he didn't even know there was a MPS6!!


He hadn't seen one before so he came out to the carpark and had a look at it and even sussed out the standback (I took in the screen-shots from the manual) and said that he hadn't tuned one of these before but he was willing to give it a try with "no guarantees"- standard clause statement from a tuner.

On doing further research via the threads on this forum and a couple of US forums I'm actually reluctant to get the CPE standback connected and tuned as it appears dyno-tuning the 6's is a good way to blow up your engine and I can't afford a rebuild by any stretch of the imagination so probably best to stick with stock computer.

I'd rather not risk it given the lack of tuning experience in WA on the MPS6- I guess I could try Haltech or similar as tuners here in WA have more experience with this software but we still risk popping our engines when on the dyno.

I think when we find a decent workshop with a good reputation and they start tuning one or two of these cars it shouldn't take long for them to get the mapping sorted out nicely.

Only issue is someone has to be willing to be the guinea pig test case and put there car up for testing etc. There's just no telling why these engines go boom so easily on the dyno even when stock.

Fletch you can try one of my SB tunes if you like. There's no reason why a proper tune should initiate blow-ups, on dynos or elsewhere. Dyno runs can be a bit stressful due to sustained high rpm and possibly indifferent cooling, but I doubt they are commonly associated with blow-ups as a direct cause, more like someone playing with the ECU is dialling in parameters that just aren't reasonable for the prevailing rpm/tps/load conditions.
