Hi guys and girls,

I just had my unichip installed yesterday at autotech engineering, I must say they have the best customer service.

Before installation they found that my resonator had cracked on both ends. I was wondering why my car kept rattling and felt like **** sometimes. It was replaced with a new high flow resonator.

My result was 112.1kw atw.

But ignoring that number, the car has completely transformed, low to mid range has new life. Stop start traffic is easy to drive as the car is alot more torquey thus requiring less effort to get moving and keep up with traffic. I also turned on the a/c to see the difference, the car no longer struggles as it used to. Going up hills now also requires alot less effort.

The transition into lift is also less noticable now, due to the extra torque.

Bear in mind this was dyno tuned in 30 degree weather (crazy sydney weather) so I expect a higher number on the dyno. Some will say from my numbers its not worth it, but drive my car and then you will notice the differnece.

I dont like to talk much, I will be taking my car down the WSID in the coming weeks to see my MPH time. That is the real test as dyno figures are overrated aka not a dyno queen lol :lol:

My Mods are

- SHIFT CAI

- 2.5inch catback with high flow resonator and XFORCE twin loop muffler

Never ever look at max output......doesn't mean crap if you ask me.

Now if we look at the difference between the curves we see approximately a 6kw gain throughout the rev range but provided it produces the goods that you expected it to produce then we have a good result.

if you don't mind how much was it all up??

Cheers

It cost $550 for installation and tuning. I also got the unichip for dirt cheap off my cousin, that is why i opted to go this path.

I know several people who get their cars tuned at Autotech and not many complaints :)

looks like a good result, now to take it to the track so you can REALLY feel the difference.
