Boosted Falcon

hi all,

im new to the forum, just found it today actually, lol, hope this is the correct place to post

anyway, decided its time to boost the eb, i pretty much have all the info i need exept what needs to be done with the ecu and where to get it tuned. anyone have a recomended tuner in brisbane or surrounding areas?

just want the standard ecu fuel maps played with if thats possible, dont wanna go fancy with ecu work

i searched the forum but couldn't find anything.

and also, probs a stupid question, but how safe are these cars to drive untuned, im not keen on hitting boost till it gets on the dyno? just asking coz i live about 2.5hrs away from bris and i need to get it to a tuner some how. there are none closer than that unfortunately


thanks in advance.

Basic answers:

Tuner - Rollin has had the least problems with Hi Torque on the Gold Coast
Standard ECU - do a search on J3
Driving boosted and untuned - take it easy or trailer it

was thinking bout jamming the wasegate open so would be driving it with no boost anyway

Since you have to drive to get it tuned make sure you install a boost gauge and drive it but don't let it make any boost. Just control yourself and it will be fine. I drove my car about 40 minutes to my tuner after I installed my Microtech ECU and a new turbo charger system on nothing but the base map that I adjusted for larger injectors. No problems at all. Don't worry about jamming the waste-gate open, just control yourself.
