Hello AU boys. I am transplanting an AU motor complete with inlet manifold and AU computer into my ED shortly. I was wondering if there is anyone in QLD that does the AU Edit? Plus the Edit should clean up any differences between auto an manual ECU's, yes? Mine is a manual but it's near on imposible to find a manual AU ECU in QLD and there has been none on Ebay recently.

make sure you find a S1 (pre update) ECU or I can see the smartshield causing you grief

but the chances of getting lachlan tuning your car... i highly doubt it...
i must admit, my car was a weapon the day i drove it from chiptorque, and now i doubt its got the same power as it had the day i got it tuned... i reckon it would be just over 200rwhp..

You'd hardly notice a 15 hp drop in performance. If you think it's that it more likley your getting used to it. I know mines like that.
Done your oil or had a service lately?

I spoke with Nathan from Herrods on the coast approx four weeks ago, he said he hadn't done an au edit but was willing to give it a go if someone wanted it. Apparently his has another excellent tuner working with him and they have been tuning cars on Chiptorques dyno. If you give Nathan a call i'm sure he will be able to help you out.

its just missing something that it had when i drove it out from there... its doing better trap speeds down the qtr. previous was 94.73 (203.2RWHP) to 96.11 (217.2RWHP) on the videos of my car at the drags, it sounds as though its hesitating after changing gears. before my current tune, it was nice and chrisp.

Thanks EvilChief.
