EcuTek Tuning in Australia - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

86drift · 07-29-2012, 07:14 PM

Hi Guys,

My car will be the first officially EcuTek tuned 86 in Australia. It's going into the shop on the 7th of Aug. It will be baselined on the dyno and then tuned (on the dyno). I will post up results and hopefully a few pics or vids in action. They don't like ppl being there when the dyno is running so might not be possible.

Let me know if you have any questions about the EcuTek, especially Aus specific ones and I'll do my best to get answers.

What I'm really looking forward to is seeing what the car will make with air filter, exhaust and tune.

Cheers,
Josh

What exhaust and air filter are you using Josh?
Looking forward to seeing the results

JP · 07-29-2012, 08:11 PM

what is the cost? And have they indicated what subsequent retunes will cost?

Initially the tune will be done on the standard intake and exhaust.

In the next week or two I should have a full (86Drift) exhaust including headers. I haven't decided on air filter brand yet, but I'll be keeping the factory air box.
I'll post all the details on the exhaust in a different thread.

When the new exhaust is done I'll dyno it with standard maps vs Stage 1 tune to see the difference. Then if need be, I'll get it re-tuned (Stage 2).

I will create a section in the Classifieds section next week. I am working on a special for you guys so keep an eye out for it.

looking forward to it

Nice, I like the sound of locally made headers that work well

have you seen the nameless performance ones? They look quite good. If you can get similar results i'd be very intersted

DriftEightSix · 07-30-2012, 12:39 AM

keen to see the results

Not allowed to be there while its on the dyno ?

Go to another dyno , thats a load of baloney.

Would be great to see it on a Mainline Dynolog not like the higher reading single drum dyno's

I'm hoping someone in Melbourne is good at this EcuTek stuff too

:-)

I saw MRT will be supporting ecutek 86 tunes. not to far from me :-)

Choose carefully. I retuned two Ecuwrecked cars this month.

That's all I'll say.

BRAWL · 07-30-2012, 05:55 AM

Interested to see how it goes.

not doing anything to my beast when I get it until the warranty runs out. Then who knows? Might be a family man by then and have to limit my spend on toys

I have driven ecutek motors with 1 000 000 whp!!!!

What of it...

How about you give us more details about these " Ecuwrecked" cars?

Were the 86's? are they using the current ecutek software?

Cheers... you can't come bashing in a thread with no details!
