If you have a newish stock and well maintained car which to be fair is rare there is nothing wrong with a "car park tune" companies like apr or cobb spend years developing these tunes and they are very safe. There are alot of dodgy dyno tuners too. Only get your car tuned by someone reputable
Hey Chris, there is everything wrong with a carpark tune mate. Why would you want to put a tune file onto your brand new rig that you (say) tow a 3T van with a lot, when the file was done on a rig that has done 200,000klms & never tows?
@@UltimateDieselTuning read my post mate, you use the term "car park" tune for anything not done on a dyno. I said use a professional company like Apr or cobb which do amazing flash tunes tbat have had hundreds of thousands of test miles put on them in all conditions. I could use the same argument why would i send my car to a guy with a dyno that has no idea what hes doing? Also you cant replicate 100s of thousands of miles of road testing on 2 hours of a dyno. Seen the same horror stories from dyno tunes. Also do you simulate towing a 3 tonne van in all weather conditions on the dyno? 45 degree day in darwin? I bet you dont test for different ambient temperatures
@@UltimateDieselTuning as i said i my car is a brand new amarock with 3000kms on the clock then yes it is. If im running a 1990 landcruiser with bigger injectors, bigger turbo, exhaust then no you have to go with a custom dyno tune obviously
great advice, many thanks. I have a new D Max coming next month. Should i wait and see how it goes or make a pre-emptive strike and get done from the get go?
Like my mums 2008 Nissan navara d40 a guy who had it before my mum was playing with the diesel stuff and mum put a new turbo in it and when it gets 2 2500rpm It just drops boost completely going up hills like it stalled but dumps out heaps of smoke
Gday Shaunno🤙🏽 were all looking for the bigger shaft 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️😂😂. But fairdinkem how bout a show on the old school mechanical pumps as I’m bout to seek a tuner for 12HT rebuild I have. Cheers top show.
@@crimson2822 flames burn faster and hotter in the presence of more oxygen. More air relative to fuel than usual, means more oxygen than usual. So the flame burns hotter and faster than it should and will raise the temperature of the combustion chamber.
@@MrPeterDWatson Yes that’s correct for petrol engines, however Diesel engines it works in the complete opposite way. Do a simple google search if you don’t believe me...
@@naushad911 forgive my ignorance but you literally commented on a 4x4 247 video titled how to avoid diesel tuning disasters. Where Shauno is talking to a 4x4 diesel tuning specialist. It's a little like you have walked into KFC and suggested they put fish tacos on the menu
All well and good saying that a dyno tune is great, but not everyone can afford a dyno tune, so obviously a “car park” tune is a bit more cost effective for some .
I agree with what you're saying BUT If you develop one of those issues 100kms after you do the tune you're gonna be in the same situation. Having a gauge to monitor EGTs is good on a stock engine but imo essential on a tuned one.
at the end of this type of Dyno tune is the vehicle still within the Australian Standards? is the U9 setting on a throttle controller also within the Std's still?
Modern cars are de-rated EVERYWHERE for hardware preservation, regardless of how good your tuner is they’re not gonna know the limit of your exhaust valve temperature or clutch pack 5 in the transmission without trial & error. Also besides emissions modern cars are tuned to within an inch of their lives so any increase in torque or rpm is playing with fire.
I had one... Killed 2 injector pumps and a set of injectors. After spending a fair amount I put up for sale then the company called me and offered me peanuts for the car a day later.. Still have the car and its back to stock and working
as in breather lines,,, we generally run them up the chasis into either the engine bay,, or plumbed into the airbox/snorkel usualy to keep them dry when doing river crossings and water
Just curious what sort of warranty is offered on these tunes if your tuning a new or near new car? Or are you better to wait for the end of factory warranty period?
Hey Troy. A custom dyno tune won't void warranty mate. In the case of an engine issue, then the manufacturer must prove, with sufficient evidence, that the tune caused the issue. They cannot just void the warranty. Tuners should have their own warranty too, like we do. Please give us a call on 1800034373 for further information on this.
Someone I know had issues with their engine after a tune, he then got stuck in the blame game between the manufacturer and the tuner and never got his repair bill covered by either of them. Neither would put anything in writing either. He said he wouldn’t do it again.
@@djnmv we can see how that would happen. Generally speaking you need to go above the service advisors & service manager & get a case study done. That is when you'll find it'll fall in the customer's favour. If, of course, it wasn't the tuners fault. We have been through this, only a handful of times, & have always come out on top. We step in for the customer & get it done. For example, an injector failure is one of the most common issues woth common rail turbo diesel engines & that will happen with an untuned engine too. Every manufacturer has replaced thousands upon tens of thousands of engines due to failed injector/s, which is a component failure.
I took my 80 series with a 1hz to auto care in Mtgambier to get a dyno an tune .. 5 months later they tell me my injectors fuel pump valves etc are fucked so I had to replace them 5 grand later an they put it on the dyno an blow my engine !!!!! NEVER GO TO AUTO CARE IN MTGAMBIER
damn that sucks. have to be careful with the 1HZ very good engine but they don't handle lots of fuel well easy to blow them up even if a bad tune doesn't blow it up it can shorten engine by a lot.
What about chips/modules that connect onto the fuel rail and the boost sensor? I have one that has 7 different settings and I haven't noticed any negatives with the car at all - it's regularly serviced too.....
It just tricks the rail pressure to think its low so the pump puts more pressure in making it work harder there for wearing out faster. I’d take it off or just run it on low setting
@@andymurray2643 Unichip are tuneable, they are fine IF they are custom tuned on top of their standard tune files. Steer clear of any "untunable" rail pressure & boost chips, as all they do is up the boost & the fuel pressure, which is not ideal. Custom dyno tuning is far more superior & wil get you a much better & safer result, if you choose your tuner wisely.
My brother is a 4wd guy , however I'm a jdm junkie last time I was there my car got tuned for 5 hours . Im pretty sure it's the same for every engine . Wow
Most of the tuned diesels here in the states are garbage. Black smoke everywhere, big wheels with rubber band tires, enough lights so that the space station can see them and never venture off the asphalt. I refer to them as Honda civics on steroids.
MY BOYS n80 Makes 200rwhp 148kw with bigger stronger intercooler ,decat and tune 3" stainless in and out with hiflow airbox next is turbo upgrade and retune has stock turbo known to fail at 21psi
So if there’s the ‘free’ horsepower just sitting there why did the manufacturer not tune it this way? They aren’t going to make a car less powerful just to support the aftermarket industry. So what other aspects of the motor are compromised when you retune like this? Are your tunes tested to ensure they still meet emissions regulations? Or is that the next generations problem?
Manufacturers tune their engines usually so they can warrant them. They want to be replacing as little components as possible, in turn spending less money in aftersales support. Also, due to the massive variance in fuel quality, a baseline tune must be able to run the engine in safe parameters regardless of what batch of fuel is put in the vehicle. Again, want to spend less on fixing a customer's car do to uncontrollable circumstances, which is totally understandable. Another big thing is emissions. They must achieve below a certain threshold of pollution, and typically 'detuning' an engine means lesser output of power, and lesser output of co2 emission. Factory tunes are always worse than what an experienced aftermarket tuner can provide in terms of driveability, fuel economy, and reliability.
I spoke to these guys a couple of weeks ago. Very helpful and took the time to discuss my problem, even though they were never going to work on my car. I have an '04 D22 Navara and they don't work on cars that old. They did put me onto another business who could help. Also a busy business, it's a 4 week wait just for diagnosis.
I’m in SA and drive a 2000 3L patrol and keep getting told no one in SA dyno tunes them and that I have to send my computer outa state to be modded and have a tune uploaded onto it.... this always sounded similar to a car park tune to me and figured I’d just deal with limp mode and sitting behind slow drivers because I cannot over take them haha 😅
@@UltimateDieselTuning which is probably why they tell me my computer needs to be modded.... but every store that I have either called or spoke to online all said it needs to be sent outa state.... ECPT was the company most recommended to me.....
@@Viperflame08 you may have to travel interstate for this. We used to do them with Unichips - there is absolutely no need to send your factory ECU away at all. These days we only remap the common rail turbo diesel engine ECUs
Hi guys I've had a remap and dyno tune but since then I have put a delete muffler on would that effect the tune and should I put the vehicle back on the dyno
Mate i own a 08 n70 315k on it running perfect had a tune, as long as injectors are in good condition in spec you can get a read out at any diesel mechanic and egr is clean get a egt and boost gauge hooked up
As long as the dyno tuner doesn´t have a fan big enough to simulate the windspeed in all speed ranges (even for a snorkel, if fitted ) it´s still a carpark tune!
Are diesel engines that much different to petrols in the heat sense, I always thought there was an afr for both diesel engines and petrol where they produce the most heat. More fuel does not equal higher temperatures.
It does with diesels mate. It's the opposite to petrol vehicles. You lean out on a petrol, it gets hotter and makes more power. On a diesel, the more fuel you put in, the hotter it gets and makes more power.
@@EnkeiTenjin what you say makes zero sense. The most amount of heat will occur when you have the correct amount of fuel to air. If you have less fuel then it has to be cooler as less fuel is being burnt to generate heat. If you have too much fuel, the excess fuel absorbs heat, which reduces temperatures.
Sounds like a pretty good way to create issues. Dyno tunes don’t void warranties but a ‘car park’ tune would likely void warranty and as mean as this sounds..so it should.
I got a stock non turbo SD25 diesel engine it done over 400,000 km and in doing a full engine rebuild kit to put in and thinking to get the head ported out to get more power can I do that ?
Hi Matty. No, we tune cars with far more k's on the clock than yours. Just needs to have a pre-tune inspection carried out (as do all cars) & then if all is right, if you have no soot in the engine, then it'll be fine to tune. We'll just be more conservative with the tune, due to the higher k's on your engine.
I have a 2012 Prado 150 3.0 Diesel with 115000km that is using way more fuel than it used to, when new, I used to see 9l/100km, now I am lucky to see 13l/100km. It probably did not help that the vehicle basically went nowhere in 2020 (I think that it was the same tank of fuel through the entire year). I am thinking a full soot clean, possibly injector clean and tune might be worthwhile. What do you reckon?
Yes absolutely mate. One of our on-car chemical soot cleans will do it wonders, plus a custom dyno tune by us to suit your engine/car & what you use your vehicle for! Expect awesome gains in power & torque, plus an improvement in fuel economy.
How is all this emission tampering still done so out in the open in Australia which seems to have a pretty huge enforcement regime and regulations for vehicles?
@@EnkeiTenjin I'm not talking about aftermarket tunes being better or worse than OEM. Clean out your hearing aid. I mean literally how are shops allowed to do it without getting busted? There are more regs for modding vehicles in OZ than the US by far and openly announcing you are defeating the OEM programming and thus modding the emissions spec is illegal and seems easy to target. Even here you can't do it openly any more. I'm just curious how in a place that has so many regs and penalties about lift height and tire height and GVM upgrades and processes for getting the vehicle inspected and signed off by an engineer etc how you get to change the fuel tables like it's the wild west still w/o getting the state all pissed off?
No you don't. And no, no risk to an auto trans. Some manuals will need a clutch upgrade prior to tuning - like the 70 Series Cruisers, Hiluxes & Colorados.
@@UltimateDieselTuning usually, how much torque would yo put out on an isuzu dmax? generally speaking, i know each car will vary depending on how well it has been taken care of
Lost me at 4.15 when you said you leaned it out and reduced the EGT's . Leaning usually raises the EGT I thought . At least it does in piston engine aircraft when you lean the mixture to peak EGT then run it rich of peak .

@@EnkeiTenjin Don't we all want to replace as few parts as possible. I'd rather just leave it as is if any reliability is affected. Manufacturers spend millions to get his right. Custom tuners do not.
I hate to say it’s proven a tune to a prado with a 1kv-FTV engine. . Iit cracks pistons nearly guaranteed. Even with the injectors changes and regular service. Best to leave them alone. They are highly strung engines as it is
@@UltimateDieselTuning I’m confident you are correct. Not denying it. Just with the odds of a cracked piston with that engine I won’t take the risk. If I have a 200 series on the other hand I’ll come see you guys g
@@anthony.grisan mate a tune isn't BLACK AND WHITE. it isnt a case of "oh its tuned, therefore". If someone really wanted to, they could 'tune' a 1kd to be absolutely BULLETPROOF. But you'd get no grunt whatsoever. However, if you're so worried about cracking or melting pistons, then the tuner can provide you with the same power, tidy up the fuelling so it runs so much cooler and thus more reliably. As long as the tuner KNOWS what they are doing. Just like any tradesman. The better tradie, churns out the better finished product. Simple as that.
Hi i have a 2018 d'max, wanting to get a dynamic tune down the track so I was wondering if there is anything that 2018 d'max are prone to having issues having before I look at getting it tuned?

Isn't it better to buy the V6? wouldn't these modern engines have undergone tons of testing during development so they have already been tuned optimally?
No. Manufacturers tune their engines usually so they can warrant them. They want to be replacing as little components as possible, in turn spending less money in aftersales support.

Mate the factory tune is extremely safe to account for differences in climate and fuels all around the world aswell as emissions. It’s a long way away from the optimal tune.
Hey I’ve got a 2018 76 series an was thinking about getting a tune! I tow a van and have heard that it’s worth getting a heavy duty clutch with a tune on a 76. Is that true? and is it also worth getting a bigger exhaust also? Was under the impression the bigger exhaust wouldn’t do much power wise being a DPF model car? Cheers 👍🏼
Yes, abolutely you need a clutch upgrade with a 70 Series Cruiser. The factory clutches are too weak to handle the huge gains in torque that will be achieved with a custom dyno tune! Exhaust = yes on a pre-DPF model & not really beneficial on a DPF-back model.

Hey Chris, there is everything wrong with a carpark tune mate. Why would you want to put a tune file onto your brand new rig that you (say) tow a 3T van with a lot, when the file was done on a rig that has done 200,000klms & never tows?
@@UltimateDieselTuning read my post mate, you use the term "car park" tune for anything not done on a dyno. I said use a professional company like Apr or cobb which do amazing flash tunes tbat have had hundreds of thousands of test miles put on them in all conditions.
I could use the same argument why would i send my car to a guy with a dyno that has no idea what hes doing? Also you cant replicate 100s of thousands of miles of road testing on 2 hours of a dyno.
Seen the same horror stories from dyno tunes.
Also do you simulate towing a 3 tonne van in all weather conditions on the dyno? 45 degree day in darwin? I bet you dont test for different ambient temperatures

@@UltimateDieselTuning as i said i my car is a brand new amarock with 3000kms on the clock then yes it is.

wait till warranty expires. have look at "auto expert" on new car warranties if modified.
Like my mums 2008 Nissan navara d40 a guy who had it before my mum was playing with the diesel stuff and mum put a new turbo in it and when it gets 2 2500rpm It just drops boost completely going up hills like it stalled but dumps out heaps of smoke

Doesn't rich diesel mix lower exhaust gas temps?
Nah mate only thing reducing egts is more cool air and less fuel
It certainly does in Gas engines. Rich equates to unburnt fuel which cools so it doesn't make a lot of sense.
@@crimson2822 flames burn faster and hotter in the presence of more oxygen. More air relative to fuel than usual, means more oxygen than usual. So the flame burns hotter and faster than it should and will raise the temperature of the combustion chamber.

All well and good saying that a dyno tune is great, but not everyone can afford a dyno tune, so obviously a “car park” tune is a bit more cost effective for some .
A car park tune is playing with fire.
Well he had to do a video , as payment for the Dirty 30 tune.... Gotta love Kickbacks !
Is all about them getting kickbacks
I agree with what you're saying
BUT
If you develop one of those issues 100kms after you do the tune you're gonna be in the same situation.
Having a gauge to monitor EGTs is good on a stock engine but imo essential on a tuned one.
Tuning it with the issue, can esasperate the issue.
at the end of this type of Dyno tune is the vehicle still within the Australian Standards? is the U9 setting on a throttle controller also within the Std's still?
Modern cars are de-rated EVERYWHERE for hardware preservation, regardless of how good your tuner is they’re not gonna know the limit of your exhaust valve temperature or clutch pack 5 in the transmission without trial & error.
Also besides emissions modern cars are tuned to within an inch of their lives so any increase in torque or rpm is playing with fire.
You guys really know how to make some good content keen to see you guys go out west
I had one... Killed 2 injector pumps and a set of injectors. After spending a fair amount I put up for sale then the company called me and offered me peanuts for the car a day later.. Still have the car and its back to stock and working
Which company did the tune?

Greetings legends! From Seattle WA! Was wondering, where you route your rear diff hoses to? Thanks! Keep up the great adventures!
as in breather lines,,, we generally run them up the chasis into either the engine bay,, or plumbed into the airbox/snorkel usualy to keep them dry when doing river crossings and water
Just curious what sort of warranty is offered on these tunes if your tuning a new or near new car? Or are you better to wait for the end of factory warranty period?
Hey Troy. A custom dyno tune won't void warranty mate. In the case of an engine issue, then the manufacturer must prove, with sufficient evidence, that the tune caused the issue. They cannot just void the warranty. Tuners should have their own warranty too, like we do. Please give us a call on 1800034373 for further information on this.
Someone I know had issues with their engine after a tune, he then got stuck in the blame game between the manufacturer and the tuner and never got his repair bill covered by either of them. Neither would put anything in writing either. He said he wouldn’t do it again.
@@djnmv we can see how that would happen. Generally speaking you need to go above the service advisors & service manager & get a case study done. That is when you'll find it'll fall in the customer's favour. If, of course, it wasn't the tuners fault. We have been through this, only a handful of times, & have always come out on top. We step in for the customer & get it done. For example, an injector failure is one of the most common issues woth common rail turbo diesel engines & that will happen with an untuned engine too. Every manufacturer has replaced thousands upon tens of thousands of engines due to failed injector/s, which is a component failure.
I took my 80 series with a 1hz to auto care in Mtgambier to get a dyno an tune .. 5 months later they tell me my injectors fuel pump valves etc are fucked so I had to replace them 5 grand later an they put it on the dyno an blow my engine !!!!! NEVER GO TO AUTO CARE IN MTGAMBIER
damn that sucks. have to be careful with the 1HZ very good engine but they don't handle lots of fuel well easy to blow them up even if a bad tune doesn't blow it up it can shorten engine by a lot.
What about chips/modules that connect onto the fuel rail and the boost sensor? I have one that has 7 different settings and I haven't noticed any negatives with the car at all - it's regularly serviced too.....
It just tricks the rail pressure to think its low so the pump puts more pressure in making it work harder there for wearing out faster. I’d take it off or just run it on low setting
@@lachlanvandermeer1971 is that how all of them work? Unichip etc?
@@andymurray2643 Unichip are tuneable, they are fine IF they are custom tuned on top of their standard tune files. Steer clear of any "untunable" rail pressure & boost chips, as all they do is up the boost & the fuel pressure, which is not ideal. Custom dyno tuning is far more superior & wil get you a much better & safer result, if you choose your tuner wisely.
@@UltimateDieselTuning Cheers mate. Any recommendations for dyno tuners here in WA?

Does Ultimate Diesel Tuning have affiliated companies or recommended diesel tuning places in Sydney?
So if there’s the ‘free’ horsepower just sitting there why did the manufacturer not tune it this way? They aren’t going to make a car less powerful just to support the aftermarket industry. So what other aspects of the motor are compromised when you retune like this? Are your tunes tested to ensure they still meet emissions regulations? Or is that the next generations problem?
They do it to meet emissions, variances in batch processing engines, longevity for the warranty period and other manufacturers requirements.
Manufacturers tune their engines usually so they can warrant them. They want to be replacing as little components as possible, in turn spending less money in aftersales
support. Also, due to the massive variance in fuel quality, a baseline tune must be able to run the engine in safe parameters regardless of what batch of fuel is put in the vehicle. Again, want to spend less on fixing a customer's car do to uncontrollable circumstances, which is totally understandable. Another big thing is emissions. They must achieve below a certain threshold of pollution, and typically 'detuning' an engine means lesser output of power, and lesser output of co2 emission. Factory tunes are always worse than what an experienced aftermarket tuner can provide in terms of driveability, fuel economy, and reliability.
How do you go about tuning an old school turbo diesel with no computers, inter coolers etc? Like a GU TD42
I spoke to these guys a couple of weeks ago. Very helpful and took the time to discuss my problem, even though they were never going to work on my car. I have an '04 D22 Navara and they don't work on cars that old. They did put me onto another business who could help. Also a busy business, it's a 4 week wait just for diagnosis.
How much do they charge to do a tune i’m thinking about getting my d40 navara tuned
Are Both tunes on the same boost level ?
Yes
Any chance you have the dyno graphs of the boost pressure for both tunes on that colarado?
I’m in SA and drive a 2000 3L patrol and keep getting told no one in SA dyno tunes them and that I have to send my computer outa state to be modded and have a tune uploaded onto it.... this always sounded similar to a car park tune to me and figured I’d just deal with limp mode and sitting behind slow drivers because I cannot over take them haha 😅
Yes that is the same as a car park tune Timmy. Find someone who will fit a Unichip to it & will custom dyno tune it from there.
Try MTQ, used them in Melboure on our old 3L Patrol in the past with great results. They should have a dyno over there too......
@@UltimateDieselTuning which is probably why they tell me my computer needs to be modded.... but every store that I have either called or spoke to online all said it needs to be sent outa state.... ECPT was the company most recommended to me.....
@@Viperflame08 you may have to travel interstate for this. We used to do them with Unichips - there is absolutely no need to send your factory ECU away at all. These days we only remap the common rail turbo diesel engine ECUs
@@UltimateDieselTuning thanks for the info. I’ll try an organise a trip to get it done when things calm down more.
How about the ecu if you tunnung up turbo charge? And downpipe exhaust?
Hi guys I've had a remap and dyno tune but since then I have put a delete muffler on would that effect the tune and should I put the vehicle back on the dyno
It should be ok mate
Is it possible to dyno tune old turbo diesel engines? With mechanical injection pumps?
It is, but we don't do that here at Ultimate Diesel Tuning
Is there uch of a difference when tuning mechanical pumps on a dyno
There is. Is mainly controlling the electrical flow to the pump as that’s one of the only means of controlling it. It’s a bit more complex
What are your thought on turning a n70 because they seem to crack pistons?
Maybe need bigger injectors
Mate i own a 08 n70 315k on it running perfect had a tune, as long as injectors are in good condition in spec you can get a read out at any diesel mechanic and egr is clean get a egt and boost gauge hooked up

That's why a snorkel is beneficial.
Are diesel engines that much different to petrols in the heat sense, I always thought there was an afr for both diesel engines and petrol where they produce the most heat. More fuel does not equal higher temperatures.
It does with diesels mate. It's the opposite to petrol vehicles. You lean out on a petrol, it gets hotter and makes more power. On a diesel, the more fuel you put in, the hotter it gets and makes more power.
@@EnkeiTenjin what you say makes zero sense. The most amount of heat will occur when you have the correct amount of fuel to air. If you have less fuel then it has to be cooler as less fuel is being burnt to generate heat. If you have too much fuel, the excess fuel absorbs heat, which reduces temperatures.
@@jasonforan3751 Im not sure you know what you're talking about fella.
@@EnkeiTenjin basic thermodynamics, you should read up on it
So what about car park tune on a brand new 4x4? They prolly won't have any existing issues so I reckon it might be safe?
Definitely not! A car park tune is NOT suited to your actual engine & your driving conditions.
Sounds like a pretty good way to create issues. Dyno tunes don’t void warranties but a ‘car park’ tune would likely void warranty and as mean as this sounds..so it should.
I got a stock non turbo SD25 diesel engine it done over 400,000 km and in doing a full engine rebuild kit to put in and thinking to get the head ported out to get more power can I do that ?

I have a question my kun26r Hilux is at 260ks is that to many Ks for a tune as I like abit more power towing a horse float
Hi Matty. No, we tune cars with far more k's on the clock than yours. Just needs to have a pre-tune inspection carried out (as do all cars) & then if all is right, if you have no soot in the engine, then it'll be fine to tune. We'll just be more conservative with the tune, due to the higher k's on your engine.
I have a 2012 Prado 150 3.0 Diesel with 115000km that is using way more fuel than it used to, when new, I used to see 9l/100km, now I am lucky to see 13l/100km. It probably did not help that the vehicle basically went nowhere in 2020 (I think that it was the same tank of fuel through the entire year). I am thinking a full soot clean, possibly injector clean and tune might be worthwhile. What do you reckon?
Yes absolutely mate. One of our on-car chemical soot cleans will do it wonders, plus a custom dyno tune by us to suit your engine/car & what you use your vehicle for! Expect awesome gains in power & torque, plus an improvement in fuel economy.
How is all this emission tampering still done so out in the open in Australia which seems to have a pretty huge enforcement regime and regulations for vehicles?
Turn your hearing aid up, you can adjust fuelling for lower EGTs, and soot less than a factory tune. Therefore less SHIT pumped into the atmosphere.
@@EnkeiTenjin I'm not talking about aftermarket tunes being better or worse than OEM. Clean out your hearing aid.
I mean literally how are shops allowed to do it without getting busted? There are more regs for modding vehicles in OZ than the US by far and openly announcing you are defeating the OEM programming and thus modding the emissions spec is illegal and seems easy to target. Even here you can't do it openly any more.
I'm just curious how in a place that has so many regs and penalties about lift height and tire height and GVM upgrades and processes for getting the vehicle inspected and signed off by an engineer etc how you get to change the fuel tables like it's the wild west still w/o getting the state all pissed off?

Do you need to do oil changes more frequently after this? It the the auto gear box at risk from having more power? Or will the clutch pad last less?
No you don't. And no, no risk to an auto trans. Some manuals will need a clutch upgrade prior to tuning - like the 70 Series Cruisers, Hiluxes & Colorados.
@@UltimateDieselTuning usually, how much torque would yo put out on an isuzu dmax? generally speaking, i know each car will vary depending on how well it has been taken care of
Does the same apply for petrol engines
Always thought lean = heat. Is it different for diesels?
Yep it's pretty much the opposite
1:53 old mate looks so nervous in front of a camera haha.
Lost me at 4.15 when you said you leaned it out and reduced the EGT's . Leaning usually raises the EGT I thought . At least it does in piston engine aircraft when you lean the mixture to peak EGT then run it rich of peak .
Diesel tuning is basically the opposite to petrol mate.
Opposite for diesel engines. Richer equals cooler.

@@anthony.grisan mate a tune isn't BLACK AND WHITE. it isnt a case of "oh its tuned, therefore". If someone really wanted to, they could 'tune' a 1kd to be absolutely BULLETPROOF. But you'd get no grunt whatsoever. However, if you're so worried about cracking or melting pistons, then the tuner can provide you with the same power, tidy up the fuelling so it runs so much cooler and thus more reliably. As long as the tuner KNOWS what they are doing. Just like any tradesman. The better tradie, churns out the better finished product. Simple as that.
