Tuning an 07 (MY08) GT Spec B

Postby Dutch54 » Sat Oct 15, 2011 1:18 pm

Hi Guys

This is my first post as a member as I only became an owner of a Subie a few months back.

The reason for my post is that Im looking at doing some minor work to my 07 Spec B in the next few months in the form of a dyno tune and full exhaust system, and Id like to get a bit of feedback on the best tuners in Sydney. Ive perused this forum a fair bit looking for information and there is some great advice though alot of the topics are aimed at the most cost effective tune. Though cost is a factor to a degree, my main priority is a tune and exhaust system that will not cause me issues a year or two down the track (ie the problems caused to a motor by it running too lean ect).

I live in Sydney south so will likely go with either Pulse Racing or MRT unless any one out there think otherwise?? Any feedback from guys who have had their Spec B's tuned at either of these tuners would be appreciated, especially if any problems arose a year or two later which may have been caused by the work done.

I had planned on getting work done at MRT as a mate had them perform an ECUTEK tune there to his Lib B4 a year or so back and he was happy with the result. Though not too long ago he required a whole engine rebuild which has made me a little skeptical if the tune was the cause of his engine failure as it had only done 150000k's.

Anyway, Thanks in advance for any assistance offered

ps: I have added this message to a few different discussion boards in an effort to get the most responses so I apologize if any of you come across it again

I'm no expert on the subject by any means, nor have I personally dealt with MRT & Pulse, but have a quick search around the "tuning" section. Seems that there has been quite a few members whom have had issues with the above mentioned groups in the past.
