TuneX A garage for combustion engine enthusiasts, reveling in the raw excitement of real engines.

You usually tend to see these Velars in either an Ingenium engine or a 3tdi. It’s very rare to see a Velar with a 3 Litre petrol V6 engine out on UK roads so this Range Rover is pretty cool!

We helped make it a little bit louder, when you got a cool engine you want to be able to hear it! After a quick backbox modification it sounds much better!

Part 2

GLE43 all dialled in with our engine and gearbox tune, as you can see from our POV meta glasses, drives superb! Responsive throttle, strong boost delivery and maintains it well into the high rpms! Snappy gearshift changes and feels that little bit more stronger than the previous tune!

I really enjoyed working on this one!

GLE43 road tuning session proved to be a success 💪

This GLE came in tuned already, but the customer wanted us to double check everything and put some overrun on sports + only.

When we pulled the ECU out, and took a read, it was actually a decent tune, we’d call it more of a conservative tune, something similar we’d also apply if the customer is not booking in for our datalog and dyno sessions.

This is because on the surface looks like a good tune, but how the engine responds is a different mission. By analysing the tune and logs, we believed we can up the power a little bit safely, as you can see, we made same peak torque, but our mid range power and top end was largely improved! We made 29 extra BHP and managed to maintain 40Nm of torque towards redline.

But most importantly, is how this feels on the road! And with me driving it and logging it before and after, means I can confirm there was a great difference once you start accelerating through the rev range!

We’ve been doing a lot ZF8 gearbox services lately! We highly recommend keeping the service intervals around every 80k miles, or around 60-70k miles if vehicle is tuned and driven hard!

We also used our ATF machine to remove 100% of the old oil and inject a fresh full 7 litres of new oil into the box! That’s after draining the sump, filling it up to level, and then a fresh 7 litres so this process takes around 11/12 Litres of fresh oil. However this guarantees 100% of the old oil to be removed!

‘s Touareg in for a very cool and unique exhaust setup!

This is slowly being converted into a full off-roader, tbf by the time of posting this it’s already had loads of changes done 😅 looks even better now

But one of the few things we’ve helped with was the exhaust setup, off-roaders always gotta sound cool as they full throttle through the mud or climb big rocks! So we fitted a downpipe on, fabricated a lovely middle section, and followed it up by a backbox delete with tear drop shaped tips, with big ground clearance!

What do you think?

G63 2021 pops/crackle development

The customer doesn’t want the pops to be too loud and prefers a crackles style instead, so we’ve been developing and still in the process of finding the sweet spot and best set up

Which one do you prefer? The more aggressive one or softer crackle option?

Titanium exhaust yay or nay?

Personally think it looks absolutely mega 😈 we helped fit this one for a lovely and rare Heritage edition M4 Comp just in time for prom!

What do you think? Team titanium or team stainless steel?

Scorpion Downpipe fitted to our good friend Berkan ‘s Cupra 290, travelling all the way up from London a couple times as he’s seen our content and trusts us to carry out some exciting work for him!

This Cupra 290 we’ve previously had last year for some custom road tuning, customer wants some extra noise so he’s opted in for a downpipe which he supplied first, but turned out to be for a non opf model 😬 since we’re a Scorpion Exhausts // Red Power dealer, we checked to see if they have stock and nipped over to grab the correct downpipe so we can fit it same day 🙌🙌

Once fitted, we adjusted the tune to incorporate the downpipe and sounded much much better afterwards 😈

This is why datalogs are crucial!!

We had this lovely Cupra 300 in for a huge overhaul, we helped with fitting a downpipe, powerflex dog bone mount, superpro bottom arms, haldex service, drop links and then some custom road ecu and tcu tuning 😎

We split this over 2 days, day 1 was all the work on our ramp carried out by our experienced techs Andy & James

Day 2 was a full dedicated day for custom road tuning, and this is why it’s super important to data log!

With stock power health checks passed and dynod to set a baseline, we then chucked our base stage 2 file on which has been developed for years for many EA888’s, but as you can see in one of our screen shots, the car we seriously overboosting!!! Now this happens every now and then, you can do things that have proven to work many times in the past, but an occasion will occur where something unexpected happens, this car reacted differently and was overboosting by quite the margin over our setpoint request.

Now don’t get me wrong, it felt super rapid! But that’s not what we’re asking the car to do, and at the same time due to the overboost, the hpfp is struggling to keep up aswell. This is just one of the things that happen when tuning blindly, and without datalogs for us to quickly tweak and rectify the issue, I wouldn’t be happy allowing a car leave like that!

A quick PUT adjustment and the boost is back under control and listening to our setpoint! After a few more tweaks we got it dialled in, running happy and most importantly safely on our stage 1 tune! Achieving a strong 377 bhp and bags of torque! 521 NM, the customer actually came back after 5 minutes of picking up to give us some great feedback about how it felt!

Anyway, the car has now been back for stage 2 tuning! So follow up post coming up shortly!

Our ATF machine close up, this means we can drain 100% of the old oil out of a ZF8 gearbox for example, whilst simultaneously injecting fresh gearbox oil at the same rate.

This is a great piece of kit as a traditional gearbox sump only drains around 50/60% of the old oil, which don’t get me wrong is still really good. Half fresh oil is loads better than no fresh oil, but with our ATF means we can replace 100% of it! As the remaining 40% sits between the torque converter, oil cooler and the lines in between.

If you’re after a full gearbox service for your ZF6 or ZF8 gearbox send us a message
