Mitch;
Mate I'm not pretending to know the nature of your mods and for all I know they may be the ducks nuts. My point was that it is actually common for stock setups to beat modded ones. There are a number of reasons for this ranging from dodgy Intercooler piping, heatsink etc, to incorrect tuning. Of all the things that can go wrong, I'd say it would have to be the tuning of an aftermarket ECU rating as the number one stuffup for modded cars. If you are really interested, read Julian Edgars '21st Century Performance' to give a more detailed rundown. Julian knows what he is talking about and has been a Tech Guru for various motor mags over the years and Edits 'Autospeed' online.

Yes I do understand that stock setups can produce more power and out perform modded examples of the same engine, when you said......

Mods don't always equal results mate. At the end of the day it's the basics of engine building and performance that make for the fast times and big dyno runs.

Plenty of 'modded' cars out there that deliver weaker figures than the same car stock...

I got the impression that you were directing at my mods etc. and was just curious how this added up.

Anyway putting all this aside, I would be very interested if anyone could recomend any workshops who know the 3TGTE motor well, would be looking at a possible re-tune (if needed) so knowledge of Haltech computers would also be a bonus.

Am from Wagga Wagga, would be looking at workshops in the Sydney area, or closer to me.

Cheers,
Mitch.
