Mace HOLDEN PERFORMANCE MEMCAL TO SUIT VT V6/V8 AUTO - MANUAL

[alex2_s]

Are any transmission parameters changed in the tunes? Or just the engine...

 

[bigneilsen]

if these tunes give more power and better fuel efficency on a dead stock car, how come they dont come stock with the car, i mean holden ovbiously must have the technology and knoweldge?

 

[delcowizzid]

cause holden worrries about warrenty claims etc and after years of wear and tear a touch up tune can do wonders for an old tired engine

The later Factory VT tunes were alot more potent then the early VT ones so there's a fair bit to gain even on factory tunes. The series 2 tho, that was starting to push the ecotec. The never really gained after that untill they started putting twin cat exhausts on them in the VY's. You can only whip a dead horse so much but there's a little bit in them mostly if you have a series 1 VT

Got mine in 4 days! That's got to be a record for Express Post to here. Now it's just a case of waiting for my ticket home. Can't wait. Mate has one in a VN and he said it's just crazy now.

Got to be happy with that

Also wanted to mention as I'm sure many people will agree, that it's best to consider purchasing a memcal, if your car is in good working order.

For arguments sake, if you purchase a memcal and your o2 sensors are shot then your fuel economy won't be all that great under cruise conditions.

Or if you have a real bad belt tension that making a heap of noise, triggering of the knock sensors, the a performance memcal will do very little.

The list goes on and on and on

I guess this is applicable to all mods however I think that there's a greater perception that a memcal is "guaranteed" to perform, even if they didn't tell the tuner about that gutted out MAF etc...

hope to have mine soon to try out on the SC 6

They tune for economy and emission control. This is why memcals and tunes can be un-legit. . Some tunes make the car more economical and better emissions, with cleaner burn performance etc.
