Hey Just wanting to get a good tunner/dyno bloke in the Goldy /Brisbane area .I am new to Patrols and since I put 4.37 diffs in my GU IV 4.2 the pyros have increased considerably and just want to get them back in check and seen I have only owned it for 2 months want to get it tunned for peace of mind
Thanks Kelvin

doesnt have a dyno but still tunes some of the fastest diesels in queensland and does a good job with my patrol with its pump etc. he does road tuning which for alot of people will turn out better for their daily driver than a power run on a dyno, my opinion only of course.

Mike and steve have both been in the 4wd racing industry for a long time and do some really good work, they both drive highly modified diesel vehicles, and mike recently raced his GU daily driver at mud bulls and music. and steves wagon has a 300hp 1HZ motor in it, just saying.

Yes I know Steve and have had one of my patrols tuned by him at his last place of employment. Have also been out to comps and camped with the same group. Steve is a top bloke and I was always very satisfied with the work he did as what I asked for he could give me exactly that.

Some people like to have proof and be able to show off what they made. I like to use them for comparisons apart from obviously being better to drive its nice to know what has given you the gains and where. Cheers.
