Hey guys, i have a 1997 gc8 with the following mods:
* VF34 Turbo
* Apexi Power FC w/ Hand Controller
* Z32 AFM
* Apexi AVC-R Boost Controller (mapped currently to 0.7bar and 1.2bar)
* Full Turbo-back 3" Exhaust
* CAI
* Turbo Timer

So i thought hmm i'l stick her on a dyno just to see how it goes (not expecting anything to big of corse)
It put out 190HP at the wheels (running 1.2bar), didnt really bother me as i only tryed it since it was free and was just curious.
Since then i've spoke to a few people that are really into cars, told them the few mods i have and they seem to think it should go a little harder.
Do you guys think this sounds about right or should it be going a little harder? if so do you think it would just need a re-tune or something else?
cheers for your time and feedback

How rich is it running?

How many km do you get on a tank?

Seems low, who tuned it?

Has the car been tuned since you've owned it and more importantly have any of these modifications been undertaken with a tune to suit?

I bought it as it is, so i couldnt really tell you. I'l get in touch with the guy i bought it off (bought it from pwrx) to find out. I never let the tank get empty but i'd say about 400k to a tank.
If it does need a tune im guessing you guys are the people to ask who would be best to tune it? and Roughly how much am i looking at it costing?
Cheers, really big help

No offense to the guy you've bought it from but I see it like this:

The cars life starts all over again once it changes hands therefore making historical information 'especially', regarding tuning null and void 'since a tuner is going to map the vehicle based on a description from the owner'.

I'm sure the guys at Maximum Motor Sports (MMS), or Allstar Garage (ASG), would be able to accommodate you re: tuning.

Fair enough, i'll give them a ring and find out about getting it done. Any idea what the price range for this would be?
Cheers

Your car has high km and an early engine (older than the car)
I'd be happy with what you have. It drives ok, gets good milage and hasn't blown up.
Run it at the drags to see if the engine's lazy, dynos all read different to each other.

i take it you don't have the stock intercooler?
