Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? We’ve got answers.
How long does the tune take?
A Stage 1 tune typically takes 2-3 hours including dyno runs. Stage 2 tunes may take longer depending on hardware configuration.
Do you need the car on the dyno?
Yes, we dyno tune all vehicles to ensure optimal results and verify power gains. This includes before and after runs.
Will it smoke?
A properly calibrated tune should not produce excessive smoke. We tune for clean combustion while maximising performance.
Can you tune specifically for towing?
Absolutely. We offer dedicated tow tunes that prioritise low-end torque, safe EGTs, and optimal power delivery for loaded conditions.
Is the tune reversible to stock?
What if my car has existing issues?
We perform a health check before tuning. If we find issues, we’ll advise you before proceeding. We won’t tune a vehicle with underlying problems.
