Bought an 08 SS-V L98 6.0 & 6L80 auto had 2.5" cat system and VCM OTR fitted then this week i got Coby headers and the cats removed plus a full dyno tune ,the result impressed me and my mechanic
271.3rwkw at 5450rpm and 504.1nm at 4800rpm the tuned the motor and box shifts way better now
i think that is pretty good for a motor with stock internals at 156000 km

yip, driving down Manukau road you can always hear something screaming on the dyno... They are gods at tuning RBs and 4G63T's

my partners cousin is starting one at Puni.. having a open day tomorrow.. mainly rota's thou..

Not sure if Garry Capper is still around.. good tuner, but took for ages and if a mates car came in, yours went to the bottom of the list again.. my car was booked in one week in advance, took about three weeks to tune..

Bob Homewood at Drury - HiTech motorsport is another one, but I wouldn't let him near another one of my cars.. cant tune his way out of a paper bag.. car kept going into limp mode took it back and he had set the temp (max) too low, so we found out.. had it back on the dyno, blew the big end and forgot to mention it to me..
