Hi-Tek 3 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 I would say no more than $150 for a run, check fueling etc from memory, I could did up my receipts if you're desperate. I think Gavin at Hi- Velocity is the man to see regardless of where you live in Auckland. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CamB 48 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 A bit less than that I think, unless you want him to start tweaking it. BTW, it's worth it for him to tweak it for extra hp. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamez 2147483647 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 ok cheers for the info, I will try stinge a $100 outta my dad as Im a bit short of cash at the moment, then I'll post my results and hopefully some of the e30 guys will tell me how far i am off the pace, i don't expect to be that close as the engine has done 300k but it doesn't smoke and and has got awsum acceleration past 4000 revs but dead from 1-3k.

3series 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 under $100 for just a run, any tuning i'd say you'll be looking at over. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mine does not reach Max power until it hits the limiter at 6200, having max power a little down the rev range at 5 to 5 and half would make it pretty user friendly on the track. Good Luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creaver 55 Report post Posted January 19, 2009 $113 That including the tune? How long was it on the dyno for? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamez 2147483647 Report post Posted January 19, 2009 i dunno the details ay, my girlfriend took it in as i was working she said it was there for an hour, and in that hour he put it on the dyno and got 3hp from retarding the timing and stopping it running rich. sounds a bit nicer than b4 che had a mission getting it back tho because the steering broke on the way there ( the rubber joint between the power steering and firewall) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
