BURT Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 to the above, I know they are skyline orientated and are at the top of thier league with skylines, but has anybody used them for tunning the supe? honest comments please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Refused to do anything to mine when I phoned up to see what they were able to do. When I said that I had an emanage, they didn't want to speak to me anymore..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BURT Posted December 4, 2005 Author Share Posted December 4, 2005 know what you mean fella, when i told them what i wanted, they did say that prefer to use f-conv if money were an issue but on anything big would would recomend full stand alone ecu rather than piggy back systems. but they have told me they have sevral 600hp supras they have tuned. waiting for them to come back to me with prices etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Depends what you're doing but Dan their mapper seems to be pretty competent, he has mapped cars for TDi before now...and has the most experience in the UK with the Fcon V Pro. As for engine building/quality of work...I'd guess they were pretty good...look at Rocket Ron's car. But I expect you get what you pay for and they won't know the Supra inside out like they do the Skyline. I fI was getting an Fcon I'd go there for mapping.

BURT Posted December 6, 2005 Author Share Posted December 6, 2005 cheers fella, i know they have done some supras and had good results but cant find out who they Are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprasteve Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 a close friend of mine has been using them for the past few years and has spent an obsene amount of money there, however this is for his R33 & R34 not a supra. my friend says they're not the cheapest around but you pay for what you get.

BURT Posted December 6, 2005 Author Share Posted December 6, 2005 yeah i know they are a tad pricy, but like you said, you do get what you pay for.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shovels Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 I had my Soop tuned up at Abbey before I picked it up. I'm running F-Con Pro V so I guess that's why they agreed to do it It's been running sweat as a nut ever since... My mate has a skyline R33 and uses them - Not cheap mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonball Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 I would use Owen Developments - much more supra friendly and have done a few now inc Kostas, CJ's and Chris Webleys Also cheaper!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
