Dear All:

I am offering a Christmas Special Tuning rate until the New year. All tuning will be $300 for NA.

The tuning will give a greater level of performance and drive-ability, for the tuning will allow the car to work better on pump gas and the enhance Drive-by-wire will just add that response you are looking for from the Accelerator and Engine.

Please review the following link of other 3R owners responses

NA Tuning. SC require too much in tuning, but I am very much open to drop those prices for the season, but NA tuning is the norm.

There are a couple of forum members with 3.0R who live in Mackay - my location -

If those members (you know who you are) want to buy this Xmas special from Ed then those members can come to me and I will load their new XTR tunes for them.

This will save them buying a TACTRIX CABLE and finding a working laptop etc etc, also the worry of doing it correctly


Santa may well come early for some people lol

Tim,

Thank you very much in offering your support in helping others with the Cable and laptop.

I soon finish up a 3R Tribeca (Africa) and will have the time to devote to these tunes.

Once you come to me, I provide all information, even setting up the laptop remotely. Your only worry is getting the Cable.

Please check the main post. I updated it with addition information for support.

No it would not be the full tune I offer which contains so many changes. I always get queries for just tune for gas and dbw and reduce cost. So this is it. In all honestly, once the car is tuned on the gas, you find that it is responsive and smooth. The roughness or hesitation you feel is mostly cause by the car knocking/pinging/pinking. Thise is usually in the area 1600-3200rpm, but more in the cruising from 1800-2500rpm.

Compare to the full tune, this is a light version. Not aim for every last once out for tq response and horse power.

Also, the tuning can be done quickly.

Well its not a lot of money. scccccchhhhhhh. Don't tell anyone. It also means that the car can be tuned rather quickly. I am working on a Tribeca now. Been a pain finding out with out good support why the stock car works so bad in the 1800-2500rpm range. Based on experience on turbocharged cars and NA like mine, it is usually due to exhaust headers leaks, old oil and spark plugs. Last thing to check is the exhaust. Check this out for your information.

Guys I have nothing to hide. There are so many tuners out there, yet you don't see their work or go online and review their customers thoughts.

Again because I use to teach tuning at a technical college, it comes second nature to share my work.

What exactly are you looking for from your car?

If you are looking for a basic tune just for the car. That is DBW and Tuning for the gas, same price for the Xmas special. If you are looking for a FULL XRT Tuning with Boost increase, then that is something different.

But for the $300, I can offer "Starting Tuned/PT Maps v1" as describe in the below link. I try not to do too much tuning in these stages and left it for Stage 1 and Stage 2, where I put my full effort in it. See here:- http://www.xtremeracingtuning.com/forum ... f=88&t=331

This customer came to be after being messed up and a old customer recommended him to me. After sorting him, she said he would like to run with stock STI with slight mods. I assured him he can, but not on straight roads. The dyno graphs speak for themselves :) An auto is a little different due to its smaller spec turbo.

If you want the Fuel map slightly touch, it would $350AUD, but otherwise, just what it is stated above.

In Stage 2.5, is where I spend a lot of time. Only for customers having good mods.

If you just looking for a Stage 1 and Stage 2 tuning, please look here:- http://www.xtremeracingtuning.com/forum ... cef8adf5bf

I would recommend a Stage 1 if you are stock, but I left it up to the customer.
