So Iv been doing a fair bit of calling around for a search on a tune for the 190kw alloytecs v6 in Melbourne.
Iv also been looking around for an OTR retaining the MAFF to fit the Vz alloytec.

Mods done to date include:

ENGINE MODIFICATIONS
CPR6 INTAKE MANIFOLD.
MACE 12MM INLET MANIFOLD INSULATORS
20% UNDER DRIVE PULLEY KIT
SS GROWLER CAI WITH K&N POD FILTER.
*3:9 LSD DIFF GEARS*

EXHAUST MODIFICATIONS
PACEMAKER EXTRACTORS.
HI-FLOW CATS. 200 CELL??
TWIN 2.5 2 ½ XFORCE STAINLESS CATBACK

Main Questions Iv asked the tuners is
How much $
What software?
what gains am I looking at (KW)
Alterations made to the 5L40 transmission?

Anyone here recommend or used one of the tuners below or know other places I may be able to ring up and speak to?

Here are the places Iv contacted so far
-HPF Horse power factory in Dandy.
$990 for the Tune 10-15kw gain.
No VZ V6 OTR

- DYNOMOTIVE in Bayswater.
$990 (HP tune) 20-30kw gain
Can attempt to custom fit an OTR $600
No alterations made to transmission.

- EFI DYNAMICS in Lilydale
$800-900 (HP tune) 12-15kw gain
No VZ V6 OTR
Can alter transmission for firmer shifts.

- ELECTRONIC AUTOMOTIVE Epping
$1250 (HP tune) 20kw Gain.
No VZ V6 OTR

- MACE ENGINEERING
Pending reply from Steve.

-TTT PERFORMANCE Dandy

-VCM SUITE / Auto Tech Ferntree Gully
Doesn't do tuning on the Vz v6 Alloytec at the moment.

Anyone here recommend or used one of the tuners above or know other places I may be able to ring up and speak to?

Any help or suggestions is appreciated. :)

Cheers
Dave.

Vz Calais 05 Alloytec 190 with a secret mod
Yes I have been to pro flo in seaford on Martha drive, they are very pricey and they can't do much except s/c or turbo them... And custom cams they priced me at $4k...But the fellas there and great blokes, really know their stuff, but still Not much I'm afraid.

With my Lumina, I had basically the same setup as you (minus the CPR6 and Underdrives) and gained 7rwkw from the tune.

Was rather peeved.

Stick with mace, he can organise a dyno tune or stick to the logging/tune for abit less. Also sells cams for alot cheaper than that. Few guys have already installed them and quite a few camaro's in the states have them fitted.

Try castle hill exhaust.. Pretty sure they do ls1 ecu retrofits..?

As for Otr, surely somebody could massage a ls1 item in?
