AU Edit in QLD?

BI6TIM · 18-05-2006, 06:47 PM

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.

i'm keeping a close eye on this!!!

BI6TIM · 18-05-2006, 08:20 PM

I was wondering if you'd see this.

i think Herrods on the coast have the AU edit :P

OED666 · 18-05-2006, 08:42 PM

well, i am keen for something that has a decent tune... i think mine has gone off... i cant understand why it would change, but my car doesnt feel like it was the day i drove it out with 217 at the treads...

I swear I told you of the lack of tallent of chip torque!

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

ChipTorque also do the edit I think.

Thanks Tibbo I would have never known that. Automotive grief is one thing I would gladly go without!
You don't happen to have one for me, do ya Tibbo?

Yes, chiptorque have been doing them for a quite a while now. I believe they actually did a little bit of development on the AU version as well. Lachlan is an exceptional tuner too.

OED666 · 19-05-2006, 10:37 AM

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.

I service my car ritualistically!!!

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.

As far as I knew Lachlan was the only one there who could do the tuning?

OED666 · 19-05-2006, 03:30 PM

na, rob did my last one... spent most of the day on it too

EvilChief · 20-05-2006, 08:21 AM

as for auto ecu, i wouldnt be worried too much, crossbridge the neutral lock out switch and use it as a manual ecu. done

BI6TIM · 21-05-2006, 05:02 PM

Thanks EvilChief.

Tibbo surely you'd have one of those lying around that I might be able to purchase off you?
