Set up a dyno day, make it worth my while and I'll come to Canada!

Hell my parents only live about 2.5 hours from TO.

I'm available. BUT I'm not driving to T.O. anytime soon. As far I know I was the only one playing around with TE, Uber, and Chrome in the Kitchener Waterloo area. I was going to be tuning BAC's car on the dyno with them (The work with Rent a Tire with the 2.6l H22 running 10's N/A) It was the H22 I was going to tune, but one of there techs has a ls/vtec making 350whp on a VAFC and wanted more.

In around April I am helping Aaron (Weirtech) Tune his car, and maybe Xgenturbo if he gets his ass in gear. I have all I need. I will be hitting a dyno if my motor ever gets back together. The Closest Dyno I know to London area is Mississuaga. I heard there might be one in Stratford, but I'm not 100% on that. There has to be one in London somewhere.

xenocron, Where do you parents live?

Also if anyone can survive on a basemap, get it from xenocron or me and that should make you survive till May or so, Then come to the Ontario HMT Meet at my place by Grand Bend and we can do some street tuning.

Andrea 02-06-2006 11:30 PM

Re: Toronto Canada tuners !!
 
im up for that 100% sure, just tell me when, or i'll just wait for the grand bend meeting...

bumblezc 02-07-2006 09:20 AM

Re: Toronto Canada tuners !!
 
My car wont be hitting the dyno anytime sooner then late april. The block should go to the machine shop next week. Then EVERYTHING has to go back together. I'm looking for a cheap Shell to toss it in so I can take my time on my RHD Swap and Body Work. Anyone know of one?

Man, don't trust any of these guys. The only person to ever successfully tune a Honduh is Mase in Florida. Make the drive, there are no other options, just scammers!!

how much do u charge for street tuning? ... and have u ever tuned a High compression D16 w/JRSC? ;D

Re: Toronto Canada tuners !!
 
Don't know. Services will probably be free at the HMT Meet. Just pay for the chip and away we go.

I don't have much tuning experience other then my car (ZC w/14b @12psi soon to be @22.5psi with some kinda of t3 I'm building) and a few close friends. My intentions are to get into it more. I have written many small programs to add myself and NEVER have I blown anything up.

If you've got a good number of miles out of your tunes, and you abort the tune if anything strange goes on that isn't 100% obvious what the problem is, then you're going to be fine tuning someone else's car.

Stock engines with ---- slapped on them is easy. It's the built engines that require all sorts of troubleshooting, and the 400+ whp mark where the hiccoughs and ignition misfidgets start getting annoying. Those aren't hard, either, but it's a range you have to get a feel for because the problems manifest a little differently.

This is the area which I will be tuning my engine.

Ya I never have came across anything in my tunig that I couldn't solve. Whether it was hard starting to hiccups in cruising to WOT pulls dipping to the mid 14afrs all of a suddent.

Having your head pulled out of your ass solves every simple problem you run across, doesn't it?

To bad most everyone else can't see that. OMG it isn't V-tech, OMG I'm not using Iridium plugs, OMG my long block didn't cost $5000+. Pathetic.

Bumble bud,

I think I may have to take you up on that tuning, Ive never met anyone ever with a turbo car nor have I had one myself, Ive got my motor built (d16a6 w/ vitaras eagle, milled head and a quite a bit of headwork).

I wanna run 15 or so psi on turboedit but know NOTHING and cant really get the grasp, I picked up a Twin Tec wideband from ebay with digital display.

I may just take you up on some street tuning, Im gonna pay your not gonna do it for free!

My only problem is Ive never assmebled a motor before, I wont know until I fire it up if it runs right haha

Oh well, ive got another built block awaiting incase it blows

never met anyone with a honda that remotely cared about performance

Re: Toronto Canada tuners !!
 
Do you plan on using a better MAP then? Hope you don't plan on just having a stocker at 15psi.

I am contimplating getting Ostrich to do Real-Time. I got a good EBC to be able to set exact boost levels to tune at. I have my wideband, but it's always nice to compare the accurancy of mine against another.

Canada has cars haha

Re: Toronto Canada tuners !!
 
I will probably have a gm 3 bar map sensor if it shows up, maybe a motorola 2.5bar

My basemap is for a stocker though, have to change it when i get it tuned if I ever do

Ya I got a bunch of 2.5 (4 actually) But I don't want to run into what Josh (hotsex) ran into when I try to max out my boost controller at 22.5psi

Re: Toronto Canada tuners !!
 
I will be needing a tune aswell... hopefully I will have the car together as soon as they stop salting the roads.

There are a few places and people who tune in my Toronto/Niagara Falls region... But they are few and far between.

It's not easy to find someone you can trust...

Re: Toronto Canada tuners !!
 
Well I have an Ostrich on the way, as well I'll be order an Innovative LC-1 soon to replace my DIY-WB so I trust it a little more and can pull between cars.

I'll be good to tune at the meet. If I'm not welding the whole time. I have a friend coming who is a superb welder so I can tune most of the time.
