Hi I would like some advice on tuning options after much reading

I've come down to - Kido MSR and MRT

After reading the tuning section and the learning view topic I'm concerned that there seems to be a lot of issues however I didn't see any MSR or MRT related issues.

Buddah,

I'd like to clear this up. Brandon's car was built by MRT. It drank 2l of oil in 1000kms and had a tiny little turbo on it.

We rebuilt his engine from the ground up with a Cosworth short block and built him a custom turbo to suit his power goals and it's been making power reliably ever since.

Thanks for reading....

I did they original owner had the issues as he told me, i found other issues that are not related to that issue. they stuffed up simple as that.

also having spoken to brett a few times on the phone he was rude, arrogant and a bit of a prick!!

another reason i don't like them is they use ecutec and that system cannot be modified by a non ecutec tuner, so they can potentially hide bad work in there tune

buddah... why do you care so much? and why when someone has an opinion or bad report about mrt do you get all defensive?

We work very closely together. This is just a very unfortunate example of a build going wrong. The actual problem was that the bores distorted and the bore clearances were rooted.

Because I and a lot of others are more than happy with their service . Everyone in this type of industry has a problem from time to time MRT may have more only because they have built a hell of a lot more over many years so averages are against them . And whenever the name MRT comes up on the forum a wood duck will raise its head and bag them out because they read it on a forum and they feel good they had a say . :wink:
