Default Capa Custom tune - $995?

Yes guys, the First 11 names to book in will recieve a custom flashtune for $995.

This is not a joke. First 11 names. But, like any other special, we have a bonus for one luck forum member.

A name will be drawn out of a hat once the bookings are made, I will get a forum admin staffer to help with this, and the luck person will only pay $550.

All prices inc GST, hurry up they will not last!!

Can I pay it off in dribs and drabs until I can get to come over and see you. New house 3 weeks ago and new job in 2 weeks have stretched finances. Will you do three tunes?

It's the SCT Flash Tuner as supplied by CAPA with AU software with a Bluepower custom tune, by the looks of things. Will do I6, V8.

These days nothing is for free, But if you ask me it's money well spent ever since I had it done to my BA, But I've also had the chance to sample an AU with an edit and it's bang for buck good. Just do it you wont look back.

I know it hard to estimate possible increases but have you done any AU I6's and what were your average results, before and after the flash tune?

depending on mods, generally a minimum of 10rwkw top end, as much as 20rwkw mid range tune only, with far more consistency and transient throttle response.

It may seen like a lot but,
At $995 you are basically paying for the capa unit and getting the tunes for nics. Mind you I know of quite a few XR6 Turbos where they have spent a full day and sometimes more doing the tunes. Business is business and they have to make a living the same as the rest of us and I guess that is why it is only for the first 11 people who book in.
And nobody is charging the normal $1650. More like $1250 to $1400.

Maybe you get what you pay for. Chris has the runs on the board....
There is a couple of places up here doing tunes and I reckon they would be ripping people off at $500. I have yet to see one of their cars run a decent time in spite of the massive dyno sheet figures.

Is this a proper custom tune or one of CAPA's generic tunes and then a quick run on the dyno?

Wow

Thats a great deal 'one of bluepowers custom tunes for that price'.

A big well done for a forum sponser to offer such a deal. It would be good to see some others do something else to the boys.

Well done to you chris it just goes to show you are there to help out the owners of fords and not just take peoples money like some others out there. I hope the queue will be long.

Guys,

Sorry to rain on the parade, but this deal is for AU owners, and has been put in the relevant forum area to give the AU guys a go, as i feel they often miss out.

There will be a BA I6 special coming up.

The whispers about canberra are true, stay tuned.
