Tune - SA

[Protadog]

Im thinking of getting a tune for my ba xr8 but dont really know much about it etc or price ranges. I've been told a tune is around $1,000? or something around that.
Anyway if someone could tell me where abouts the best place in SA is that i could go and what they got done to their cars etc so i could get an idea on what to get that would be great.
If there is a thread about this i apologise and it can be deleted.

Cheers

you will need a capa x3 flash tuner unit.. tuning places can supply them but usually it's cheaper to source them yourself ie from ebay as long they're unlocked or brand new around $700ish but i picked up mine for 550

bruce heinrich in lonsdale mostly does turbo's but i reckon he'd do a good job on the xr8's. he charges around $3-400 for a custom dyno tune

kpm are very expensive $1150 for a custom tune done and you dont get to keep the flash tuner box which you could sell later on if you sell the car

think i paid about 700 for the tune only at kpm and ive been very happy with it, the guys there are very professional but do charge.... tim tuned my 3v pulled 224 would have been happy with 200

Bruce Heinrich knows his Fords, he would be the first choice. Second would be Ash from Classic Car Performance in Hackham. Third would be KPM. All offer a great result.
