LPG Tuning in Brisbane area

Would any one know who would be the best person to tune a Nissan Patrol TB42 Petrol/LPG in the Brisbane area??

I have had experience of backfiring that cracks the air filter box.

This is expensive approx $450 for a new air filter box.

Any help would be appreciated

Regards
