WHAT

Power Pro Flash is a USB cable that plugs into your laptop on one end, and your car on the other. Power Pro Flash requires a laptop running Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8.

Peak gain power improvements with these tunes can be achieved on some vehicles without supporting mods (though stronger low to mid-range gains are definitely going to be achieved resulting in a net average power gain). This means that the area under your dyno graph will be greater even if no real peak gains are attained. 

HOW

We send out a form which asks for a list of your current modifications, desired outcomes (within reason), VIN number etc... We then send you the programmer/data logger (which requires a PC) with the tuning software and email you out a base tune.

Once the base tune is flashed in the car, the runs are logged, you then email the log file to us to revise the tune to suit your car specifically. We then email up a revised tune at no extra cost.

Please be aware that this is a custom tune service. As every vehicle is different we need your help in reading your vehicles engine and transmission files. We customise every tune to the customer’s car.

Our remote tune can often givesimilar or greater gains over a dyno tune given the additional information under real world conditions.

We offer free retunes for a period of 6 weeks after we send you the base tune. In this period any other additional modifications can be recalibrated at no extra cost. After the 6 week period additional charges will result.

As this is a Remote tune service the time involved can take anywhere from 2-3 days to a fortnight depending on demand.

 
DYNO RESULTS

Shown below is a dyno graph is of a VE LS3 initially running only a cat back exhaust system producing 270rwkw. After flashing the base tune it gained an honest +7rwkw.

After installing our OTR Cold air intake kit and touching up the tune, max power was recorded at 294rwkw, which is a considerable gain of 24rwkw from only an OTR intake and MACE tune.

Finally, after installing extractors and cats, with a further touch up tune the end result was 302rwkw, as shown below

Please note: a bond of $220 is required if loaning the programmer, which is refunded in full once it’s returned back in working order. The cable must be returned within 30 days of receiving your base tune or the cable loan amount will be forfeited.

We cannot tune 5 speed transmissions, only 4 speed and 6 speed automatics. Please be aware before purchasing the tune as refunds are not available.

Conversely the programmer can be purchased outright for $180

The benefit of purchasing the programmer outright is that it allows you to swap between tunes at your convenience. This may come in handy if the car is still serviced by a dealership. It also logs and erases fault codes, which may be handy from a diagnostics perspective.

If you don’t feel comfortable doing the work yourself, we have a number of workshops nationally who can assist. Please contact us for more details.

Please note: 'TUNE ONLY' is for customers who already have the PPF programmer
