hmm!! you will get mixed responses from people on here. i personally have taken my petrol patrol to chapmans for a tune and a bit of work and had no problems....a little exy i thought though.

i would NOT take my diesel to him. mostly because the race motors he builds are petrols (yes he has done diesels) and i have heard some dodgy info about them gettin huge dyno readouts but not backing it up wit reliability.

how correct this info is i dont know. but as i said, i have a diesel and i dont and wont take it to him

He knows his sh1t when it comes to Pajero's and if I were brain dead enough to buy one I'd probably take it to him for work.

When i worked for ARB.... The boss had a GU turbo diesel ute and had it tweaked by Chapo's. They are really good friends and i've driven it a number of times it absolutely hammered and no problems
