Wanting a different setup? Be it you’re wanting a different turbo or you’re more power, we can help with that. We can either dyno tune your vehicle or can do assisted road tuning where we send you a file then you have to log parameters for us. We then revise the tune then repeat the process. You need access to a private strip of road where you can drive up to 170kph. The second option is more suited to people who have experience with datalogging. Have a different turbo in mind? Get in touch with us.

Wastegate Mod
We will adjust your wastegate control maps so you may utilise an aftermarket wastegate with uprated spring like a Turbosmart 7psi wastegate. This mod allows you to hold more boost at higher RPMs.

Burble/Crackle
We offer 3 versions of Fuel overrun Crackle
Version 1: Burbles. This give you a gurgling exhaust note when you lift the throttle. Very discrete and will work with a catalytic.
Version 2: Lift-off Pop. This gives off one or two pops when you lift off the throttle during driving. Needs decat.
Version 3: AK47. Self-explanatory. Needs decat.

Water Methanol Injection
Water Methanol Injection lowers the air intake temperature and cools the engine. It also boosts your octane, allowing us to increase ignition timing. We will tune your vehicle to take advantage of the cooling properties of water-methanol and increase more HP.

E30/E45/E85
Ethanol is a high octane fuel. It is mostly used in racing applications. With our ethanol tunes, we can increase your ignition timing and run leaner air-fuel ratio – all of which increases horsepower.
NOTE: You need to upgrade fuel injectors and fuel pump. (This is not a flex fuel tune as the ME7 ECU does not possess that ability.)

Launch Control & No-Lift Shift
We will add either a 2-Step Limiter or Anti-lag with No-Lift shifting to your vehicle.

The Engine Control Unit (ECU) is responsible for controlling various engine operations in modern vehicles. However, factory ECU programming often prioritizes fuel economy and emissions compliance, limiting the engine’s potential. As tuners, our aim is to unlock your vehicle’s hidden performance by adjusting the ECU’s target settings. This performance-oriented tuning allows your engine to unleash its true power, resulting in an exhilarating driving experience. When upgrading engine components like larger injectors, a proper tune is essential to prevent issues such as running too rich. Through professional tuning, you can fully tap into your engine’s capabilities and enjoy the enhanced performance it offers.

tandard tunes, also known as flash tunes, are designed to optimize the performance of your vehicle for everyday driving, providing an enhanced driving experience. However, if you’re seeking to unlock the true potential of your high-performance vehicle for racing or motorsport events, competition tunes are the way to go. These tunes go beyond the standard optimizations and require datalogging, enabling the fine-tuning of engine parameters to maximize power output and responsiveness. Achieving the desired results with a competition tune may take time and effort, but the process ensures that your vehicle reaches its peak performance while maintaining the right balance between power, reliability, and drivability. To ensure the best outcomes, consulting professional tuners with expertise in competition setups can further enhance the results. With a properly dialed-in competition tune, you can unleash the full power and exhilaration of your high-performance vehicle on the race track.

Option 1: (Recommended Option)
You have the option to purchase an ECU flash tool. With this tool, you can enjoy the convenience of flashing unlimited tune revisions and updates whenever you want. It empowers you to have full control over your vehicle’s tuning. While the ECU flash tool comes with a higher upfront cost, it provides long-term flexibility and customization possibilities. If you’re considering a custom tune with road tuning, we highly recommend choosing this route for ultimate tuning freedom.

Option 2:
You come to us OR we come to you. By opting for this approach, we can utilize our specialized ECU Flash Terminal tool to read and write the tuning files directly on your vehicle’s ECU. This personalized service ensures precise tuning tailored to your vehicle’s specific needs. If desired, we can even connect you with trusted partners in your area who can assist in the flashing process. This recommended option guarantees professional expertise and accuracy in optimizing your vehicle’s performance.

We are based in Western Sydney and can service vehicles within Sydney Metro.

We are in the process of establishing our partner network and soon will be able to provide our services to Melbourne, Brisbane, Greater Australia and the world.

No. We access the ECU software via the OBD port.

The reading and writing process only takes about 10 minutes however, we need to manage the files prior so the whole process takes between 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the tune.

It depends. For exhaust mods for example, it can be installed prior to tuning. For the turbo wastegate however, it needs to be tuned prior to install. Please get in touch with us to confirm.

Our tuning process involves several steps to deliver the best results for your vehicle. We start by reading and creating a backup of your ECU files. Then, we cross-match or define map locations and modify the necessary maps to suit your upgraded parts. This process can take between 15 minutes to 2 hours. Finally, we flash the modified file back to your ECU. For Competition tunes, we perform datalogging and make adjustments to find the optimal tune within healthy limits. This iterative process ensures that your vehicle achieves the desired performance while maintaining reliability. Our tuning service is focused on delivering customized and balanced tuning solutions tailored to your vehicle’s specific needs.

When it comes to fuel mileage, tuning your vehicle can have a minor impact, but modern tuning techniques strive to optimize the balance between performance and fuel efficiency. While there may be a slight decrease in fuel efficiency when tuning for higher performance, we take into account your goals and the capabilities of your vehicle to minimize any negative effects. By customizing the tune, it’s possible to fine-tune parameters related to fuel delivery and ignition timing to optimize fuel efficiency. So, while there may be a small trade-off, the overall benefits of improved performance and drivability make tuning a worthwhile investment for enthusiasts seeking an enhanced driving experience.
