So i need my D-jetro installed and tuned for my GTR.

leigh holeman was $1000 (i will never go back to him)

extreme in clownsville want $600

aitkinvale auto in ville want $1400

whats the difference between the 3? i mean can i expect better gains from $1400? or are they just charging more for the hell of it?

So that rules out Cairns... Unless you go to Cape York Automotive. Have you talked to them about it?
No idea about the rest, Aitkinvale probably do a cheaper re tune rate once you add more mod's like SVS do.

cape you can do it but they prefer the vipec one (ray hall) and suggested leigh would be better.

I just want to know if more money actually gets you anything

No it wont, go see paul at extreme if you refuse to use SVS, he'll do a better job than any others mentioned.

Awww....

I thought this was a comp.

[UDLOOZ]

Paul is a gun with Power FC's man be best to let him do it even if he was charging 1k or more..

[DNKGTR]

Yer mate go to Paul. 100% My GTR is there now i wouldn't let anyone else touch it.

[R33GTR]

great, thanks guys

[GTR37]

Definitely see Paul at extreme. He know his power fc's. He tuned My fc in my old gtr and grants purple gtr. He gained 60kw at mid rpm with the same max output of 300kw with my old tune. it felt like a completely different car. I wouldn't go anywhere else. The other shops are probably charging more because they are either unfamiliar with them or just simply dont like them.

[kitamijin]

Do you know if Paul can tune EVO's. Grant comes to my sprints and has never said a bad word about the tune so if he uses him should be safe, unlike the morons up here in Cairns.

[UDLOOZ]

yes he can its just difficult for him to do it as he only owns a 2wd dyno.... Im sure considering your car has the ralli art ecu he wont have the software to do it and wont be all that fimiliar with it but best ringing him and asking..

Slightly off topic but does anyone on here know of any quality WRX tuners in Cairns?

I use Cairns Leading Automotive on Lyons St. Had a shaky start with them, as they were still learning. Since then MRT and S & J have been through there and learned em up HEAPS.

They have fitted all of my performance gear and tuned it to perfection, I have 0 complaints.

The owner, Rob, is a bit abrasive to start with, but once he knows you're not a time waster wanting to put a turbo on an Excel, and you pay bills ontime, he comes around quickly.

I've recently commisioned them to put in my forgies and new turbo with ViPec management.

at a guess... was it your car a while back that they fried the ecu in than tried to claim subaru warranty... hence the shaky start?

Not mine. I think that was with their own test mule. Silver 06 WRX with ECUTEK up the side of it. Mine was tune problems only.

Just a note, The Djetro Power FC is far more complicated and time consuming to tune than a standard L jetro ( AFM based ) if that price from extreme is including installation ( map sensors and air temp sensor as well as running the harnesses etc. ) and the tuning that is an excellent price.
