FAQS
What ECUs do we tune?
We can tune most factory and aftermarket ECUs. We are authorized dealers for LINK Ecus and have experience with most others.
How much does a tune cost?
Our tunes start at $1200. There are extra features that can be added on – see our Tuning page for more info.
What should I do before my tuning appointment?
The main things that we will check during our pre-tune phase are:
Spark plugs
Fuel level
Oil levels and condition
Smoke test to look for any leaks
If you can check these things and have them sorted before your car arrives for it’s tuning appointment, it can avoid extra charges or diagnostic time. We are also happy to check these and prepare your car for you before your appointment day – please give us plenty of notice to get you booked in. (Costs apply to these extra services)
Can I watch while you tune my car?
Unfortunately No. We are an operating workshop and need to follow health and safety processes to keep our team and our customers safe from harm. We do have a tv screen in our customer lounge that will display the final couple of power runs, but the tuning process can take up to a day and our technicians need to be able to focus 100% on your vehicle.
What if my car has problems on the dyno?
Cars aren’t always straightforward – but preparation is key!! To save time and money, check out our pre-dyno checklist for essential tasks to complete before your tuning session.
If we encounter minor issues while your car is on the dyno, we'll contact you to discuss solutions and, if possible, resolve them quickly to keep your session on track. However, if the problem is more serious, we may need to stop the session and recommend repairs before rescheduling
