BA wagon in after a Shiftkits Australia kit was installed, to set the ecu up for it an remove the limp mode they were experiencing.

This had a "Tiktok" tune in it and my god was it horrible.
Only spun up 188HP and was horribly rich.
I quickly just flashed a base tune in to get it in a safe position where I felt it comfortable leaving the workshop with me being the last person to touch the ecu.

Please don't get Tiktok tunes...

Haltech Plug N Play Ecu doing all the hard work with Matt behind the keyboard!

Managing the torque with boost control ramping in slower as this is a stock bottom end to keep it alive.

Sadly we ran out of wastegate spring so this is as much as we could get out of it.

Gate pressure was 9.8psi, managed to get 24ish out of it before it rolled off hard up top.

Ended up at 665HP & 1217NM, bigger hate spring ordered and will be back to go 700+ if the SBE allows it 😅🤣

We had Chase's VT burnout car back in for a touch up tune to suit the next eound of modifications!

Luckily it came in too as it was horribly lean to begin with!

Ended up with 215HP & 664NM
Massive increase of torque from its previous combo being 437nm before
Thats a 51% increase!

Should continue turning top gear on the pad no worries at all 👌

The gift that just keeps on giving 😬

Kierans Twin Turbo LS E46 Drift car came back again not running right.

After some diagnosis we found the Injectors had been clogged up AGAIN.
We sent them off to Kev at Full Flow Performance Injectors to get them sorted.

This time round Kieran opted to redo the entire fuel system from scratch so there was nothing remaining from the old setup (except the tank) left to reclog the injectors again.

We also added in a surge tank and aftermarket fuel rails, a must in a drift car and boosted application in our opinion.

After that, back on the dyno to verify the tune is all healthy. With a few tweaks she landed at 528HP & 837NM with around 7psi at limiter (builds boost gradually with rpm)

It survived its first test day with finally 0 issues fuel system wise!

Tyres and fuel now, the droft car dream!

Daniel brought his VE SS ute in to get the tune finalised.
His mate (ironically also a customer of ours (( Jamie, Red MX-5, also soon to do his supercharged LS )) Jamie had street tuned this and had everything basically dialled in perfect!

After a few tweaks and all the power runs all sorted,
Ended up with 444HP & 716NM

Nick from Animal Engineering & Fabrications brought down his VW Metro International to get a tune on it ready for Engineering!

This has the driveline from a VE SS underneath.
6.0L, T56 & 3.46 L*D Diff, 4 Wheel Disc Brakes.
Complete custom chassis with the body mounted ontop with airbags!

All controlled by a Haltech Rebel LS Ecu & ECU Master PDM.

With everything all dialled in and the speedo calibrated correctly we ended at 327HP & 537NM.

This by far is the coolest vehicle to come through for a tune!

💥 Full Circle Moment 💥

Mr Enthusiast - New Homes By Nik
Nik's New Drift Car!

Quick back story, 7 years ago My partner & I got in contact with Nik to go about building a house with one of his Infamous big garage plans!
We ended up with his 7 Car Garage Plan with a Hoist on a massive 1023sqm block that he found for us.

Forward on 7 years time, many Mr Enthusiast events and race events later on, he asked if we could get the ECU & Tuning side of things all sorted in his new drift car!

He supplied the Haltech Rebel LS Ecu, UC-10 Dash, Mako Motorsports Surround and all additional sensors required.

We removed the factory VY LS1 harness and ecu setup and then installed all of the Haltech gear associated.
Now the fun bit, under the dash was a complete mess...
We removed all the wiring that wasn't needed, required the centre console switch panel to suit and reused what wiring was there that was being reused.
Added all the additional sensors in and routed all extra wiring for future additions later on if need be!
Trimmed the factory dash to fit aroind the new rollcage and got everything all installed and complete.

All of this we did in our garage at home that Nik built for us, bit of a really cool moment!

From there we towed it to our workshop to get it onto the dyno.
We got the power side all sorted and it landed on 375.8HP & 686NM through the 4.08 ratio diff out of the Cammed LS1.

After that we dialled the drivability in and made sure this was going to be as responsive and snappy as possible!

Check out the comments to watch the dyno run video, video of me verifying it was snappy as all hell and an idle video!

Catch Mr Enthusiast out on track and make sure you get in contact with him for all your big garage builds!

Matt from Silent6 Motorsports brought his customers car in to Hire the dyno & get the tune sorted!

Along the way we gave some pointers on how to approach and the shortcuts we have learnt along the way using PCMTEC.

This FG GS Ute has a Harrop blower bolted on top punching out 13.5psi!

Ended up at 559HP & 791NM through the poor ol stock ZF6 Auto Trans!

Took a while for the fueling on this one to behave but once we got it all sussed Matt was all ready to get it dialled in!

A few other drama's Matt had to sort out on the dyno a long the way but he had that all covered 💪

Jared dropped his R33 off to us all the way from Kalgoorlie to sort a few things out and then chuck it on the dyno for a tune!

He had recently upped the camshafts to bigger and upgraded to a PSR G30-770.
His old cam sensor got wiped out by the tooth so he asked if we could set that up with the correct air gap while we had it!

This has a Link ECU Plug n Play G4x ecu in it, we ordered a XLS expasion loom to wire in a mac valve & a hi boost switch. While we were there we also eired in the handbrake to use that to enable 2-Step/Launch Control.

Of course we got that idle to chop like every cammed motor should!

1st run instantly we could tell something wasn't right, 19psi and only 140HP.
We found when the old cam sensor hit the tooth it had moved the entire cam gear and had made the timing belt jump a lot of teeth.

Luckily Jared was back in town that day, so he got the front end ripped off and retimed it all so it was all back where it should be.

Timing light on and base timing reset and we finally got to tuning.

While I suspect something still isn't 100% due to the power it made on such high boost and the knock I was hearing through the knock ears....

It ended up at 447HP on wastegate pressure of 19psi and then on Hi-Boost it ended at 486HP & 835NM at around 28psi of boost 👀

The combo is far more responsive, and fuel economy has increased substantially (he drove it the 5+ hours from Perth back to Kalgoorlie)!

Turns the tyres easily!
Hopefully next time we see the car we can get it all sorted and get closer to his 550-600HP goal!

Josh from RST Automotive brought back his Harrop Supercharged VE Clubsport after fixing the fueling issue we had last time!

Still managed to have some belt slip with the 6PK belt but this time she ended up at
608HP & 1007NM at only 9.5psi of boost!

Good result at the end of the day and turns the tyres with ease in any gear!
