Default Can anyone recommend a Great Tuner for BA XR6 in Adelaide

Hi there

Im looking at getting the CAPA edit but from the research ive done it appears that a custome tune maximizes the edit. Can anyone recommend a tuner in Adelaide with the runs on the board for the BA I6 NA?

Hi have been told that Turbo Tune is very good, by I have never used them.

Turbo Tune David Keen 959 South Road Melrose Park (08) 8297 1030 (08) 8371 0914

Drop in & have a word, they specialise in turbo's and have a dyno so should be able to do something with your N/A

Blackwood Dyno in blackwood are pretty good with BA XR6's. They have done plenty.

A little advertising for ppl. (note, this is who CAPA recommend, people may have different experiences) I'll send you a PM

I had seen this befroe on the capa site. Under the flash tuners that have a list of recommended tuners.
I'd suggest ringing a few for prices and find out about costs as different tuners have different prices and times for custom tuning
