The available aftermarket packs are done in fwkw, its the only way to gain consistent results. The initial development of the packs are all on engine dynos. There's no drivetrain loss, diff ratio considerations, and easy to compare it to factory figures, to show increased outputs.

The walk-in tuners are rwkw

where are you getting this information from???

I don’t know if relevance is totally the right word, indicator is probably a better fit as there is no real accuracy in the numbers of an advertised pack but I definitely agree with what you’re saying.

I don’t know any of the serious old school tuners around Sydney that make output guarantees, at best they’ll give you a rough idea as to what sort of increase you could normally expect.

Different engines making different power from stock will play a part in the final outcome.



I’ve never bought a pack off a tuner.

When I walk into a performance shop it’s to talk about what I want to achieve, the type of cam I’d like, where I want the power to come on, how it’s delivered, the type of revs I’d like to make and so on and the same applies with any other items such as an exhaust or a turbo that may be fitted.

The tuner gives me advice on what’s needed or maybe some sensible alternatives to pull my head out of the clouds and I get a before and after dyno report to give me an indication of what type of increase was achieved.

We all know you should never trust chassis dyno figures as they are just a tuning tool and packs well they are just a known combo that works and some engines will react to them better than others.

Dyno sheets for bragging about your power output are as valuable as used toilet paper.

I agree, the only real world test is what it feels like behind the wheel "and if your into that thing" at the dragstrip

A new oil filter and away you go.

Only a minor electrical problem. Yes the conrod kicked the starter motor out of the way.

Has anyone gone in recently to a dealer to see what deal/discount they are applying to EOFY?

Hi All in Sydney You can get a Herron White manual, spats x 4 , wind shields, x 2 moulded boot mat, and bonnett protector for $56,660 and if you wait, itll later in the month they are offering extended warranty, I think its a extra 2 years. Goo deal I suspect, anyone else ??

I would be interested in seeing what sort of deals will get done at the end of the month.

I'm now leaning more to getting one of the last MY16's on clearance over the new MY17. I can still upgrade to the blackout kit, and TPM does nothing for me (Mrs car has it, lots of false +).

Given the demand for the latest model, there will be a fair chunk of change left over buying an outdoing My16 to the new model to spend on other goodies I think.

I was thinking the same thing, but then Heated Seats with Memory and MRC will be added to the special last edition Redline, but it wont come in the colour I want. So thinking of going in end of this month to strike up a good deal on a Jungle Green.
