ECU Tune/ Upgrade In Sydney

[gillottine]

Yo Yo

Ok, I've only had my car for 3 months and already looking for an ECU tune or upgrade. I'm over the delay, make that 2 delays around 3 and agian at 4.5 grand each time I boot it, what is that?

Any recommendations on where I could get a tune in Sydney/Wollongong based on everyones experience? I'm not looking to create a drag car, just a tune that's drivable with a noticable improvement. MRT wanted close to 2 grand! when I called them prior to getting my car

Ow, i have a MY09 GT Wagon, pod filter

Any feedback will be much appreciated, cheers!

mate that lag or stutter is the drive by wire throttle, a good tune will sort this out for you. I believe if you do a bit of searching here you might find some details on options other than MRT/Ecutek flash. Open source flashing of can bus ecu's is starting to become more available. Try Paul @ Pulse Racing from memory I think he is an open source tuner.

Sweet, yeah it's a stutter, really starting to get to me.

mate my stutter is a distant bad memory after getting mine Verso flashed a few weeks ago! DO IT DO IT and never look back!

Sounds the goods, are they in Sydney? I found a Verso Automotive but they're in WA?

Pulse is in Sydney mate. He has tuned a fair few Liberty's from here.

There's a few places around the traps that would be able to do a tune with either ECUtek or OpenECU... Either product will do the same job, infact I'll eventually be going from ECUtek to OpenECU.

http://www.ecutek.com.au/

There's a list of all the ECUtek distributors.

OpenECU is done by places like Pulse (Menai), SAS (Silverwater) etc.

I would personally stay away from MRT. Aside from the fact they charge through the nose, I personally found their customer service & after sales support very poor.

In no way am I bad mouthing their products, I think they are ok (Jap stuff is better ) but just don't deal with them directly.

Sweet! Thanks for the info, I'll make a few enquiries and let everyone know how I go

You're not the first to say that about MRT

Talked to Paul at Pulse (nice guy) and he's asking $1100 for ECU tune (and dyno results). He said up to 30kw at wheels!!! A little optimisic I think but hey if I can get that I'll be stoked

Will get this done after my first service and let all know how it goes. Any other recommendations pls post however

I called Pulse Racing and talked to Paul about a month ago too. I got the same quote and details - using open source software. I plan to do it too, but I need to get some other things sorted first.

It'd be great if you could post up the before/after graphs when you're done.

WOW great gains and price , I wouldnt doubt it that Paul "the magician" Fisher can get that from the OEM setup ! I gained 50% power increase after taking our last car there (MY04 Foz XT). Really nice bloke and knows his $hit !

Sounds like Pulse Racing is a pretty good place to go to. Have been trying to decide whether to go back to Autotech Engineering or try Pulse Racing??

[gillottine]

I'm getting my first service done next week and will be booking at an appointment with Pulse for mid Feb i'd say.

I'll let you all know how it goes

Interested in the results on a MY07 GTB model and onwards.

My previous GT was tuned by him too, very happy.

What are you? On the crack pipe? You have a MY07 3.0RB! What are you doing inquiring about a GTB for?
