    Default VCM Tunes

    hey called a few people around about tuning for a n/a alloytec sv6, and a company in tweed heads say that tuning will get something like 15 odd rwkw (20-25rwhp) for only $680 with exhaust and cai fitted. does this seem a bit cheap? as ive read that tuning can be around the 900-1000 mark.

    cheers, richard

    They probably just do a really minor tune..... a basic change in the tune will bump it 10kw at the wheels instantly.......... good tuners, tune the fuel, optimal torque and some even do the cams adjustments in the tune.

    As we said to you last night, its not the 15 kw its how he gets it.. bad tuning can destroy a motor. you pay for what you get Rich! Tip for young players!
