how much power will i gain from this?

[ilovecarmen]

i was just wondering. have anyone got a neptune ecu b4? because im about to get one but i wanna know how much power gain will i get from it tuned. i dont have much mods. only headers, catback and a cai. i always use high octane fuel. thanks for the help guys

[MWAKU]

needs more mods to benefit. headwork

[VTi_b0i]

it should give decent gains... just dont expect too much, but you should be able to feel a difference

[ilovecarmen]

yeh i dont have much mods. only xforce 2.25 inch piping 3inch cat back, xforce headers and a cai.

[94vtirozguy]

well no one can honestly tell you, and those who can are lying. Each car is different. Different headers can give you anywhere from a few kw's to more than 10kws.

[easturn]

3" cat back? how does it sound?

[vtecprelly]

3' thats huge. with a decent tune you mite get a lil gain from it...

[preludacris]

seef 3 inch cat back.

[Bludger]

it will gain 5" between your legs.

stupid answer for an infinitely variable question.

[Bludger]

one person says you will gain a little, one person says you will gain a lot.

has this thread created more questions for you or has it answered your question satisfactorily???

[beeza]

Bludger....

Your in Melbourne,are you getting Neptune at AKMotorworks?

Are you going to run Tunerview2 also?

[Bludger]

No way.

AK = dodgy.

[beeza]

No way.

AK = dodgy.

PHOA!!!!

HUGE CALL Bludger,HUGE!

But you have had NO PROBLEM making BIG BOLD statements on here have you,so this comes as no suprise...

Andy has been nothing but an absolute legend to me and I could not imagine him being anything but.

I really despise your statement and your attitude needs a change,BIG TIME.

*flicks light switch on and off repeatedly* "fight fight fight fight fight fight =P

[beeza]

No way! I Love the Bludger.

[iwantvtec]

Andy is a mad kent...... as if dodgy maybe dodgy because he's a asian kent. Like fight you 3 on 1 n shit but yer. mechanically dodgy no way..

[VTECMACHINE]

5.36 kW's

[Manabir]

depends how many stickers you have.
any neons?
wing?

these things all make a difference.

So Racism aside,he's a good guy?

[iwantvtec]

yer he's fully sicccckkkk brooooo! he built my carby vtec.

[beeza]

haha,Nah all good!!

[DSoljah]

gains will be small, and you should really change that piping, 3" is way too big for a n/a 4 cylinder. you will lose gains from that.

[Bludger]

ipaid $300 for an oem RSB off him back when i knew no better.

ripped off.

[AKmotorworks]

You've been PM'ed mate, cant really do much for something that we sold in 2005 except offer you a full refund. So let us know by email or call us if u want to take that up.

Cheers

[AKmotorworks]

Oh btw, the op's car has already been tuned, cheers :)

[Bludger]

yes, we have sorted it out.

the issue i'm bringing up is a bit of dishonesty, I think.

I was happy to pay what i paid, i was happy with the product i received.

what i'm unhappy about is finding out much later on that what i paid was way too much.

[iwantvtec]

u pay for wat u get.... My turn to get tuned andy muhahaha. Buzz me bruzz.

[beeza]

Just last week in the shop,an item that we have sold for a long time at $15,we had to sell at $25 because we were charged more.Most of the time we would send it back but no price is solid,it varies all the time depending on how much it's imported for,and if you have been paying a certain price for a while and it suddnly increases,your not gonna know about it,sending it back just isn't worth it at the end of the day it's on the shelf for the price which is marked accordingly,it's up to the consumer if they want to pay the marked price.That happens in buisness,nothing is solid these days.A lot of the time you are doing the customer a favour for having the item in the first place.
The point is not to just attack somebody like that,when in this buisness his name means everything.

[Bludger]

look.

Say you went to Safeway/Woolworths to buy some condoms for $15.00 a packet.

Then later on you see the exact same product selling at Big W for only $10.00 a packet. What if when you opened the packet you bought from Safeway, you found some used condoms inside.

Wouldn't you be disappointed? Wouldn't you tell the world "why buy from Safeway/Woolworths when they drastically over charge?

After I bought the item in question off AK ( dodgy) I saw the same thing pop up all over the forums and for much less than what i paid. can't stress enough how much less.

thats not the only thing.

Was told item was brand new, 3 weeks wait from the land of the rising Sun.
When i came to pick it up, no box, only the bare 3 peices of the RSB dangling off his sexy fingers. Not only that, it was brand new with bolt marks where the holes were. Supposedly test fitted.

Suspicion arises when at that time, he had a Jap spec Dc2r.

Just need to add up the numbers and the answer is clear.

But look aye, this was ages ago and Everyone is saying He is Very good to deal with, so he must be.

[beeza]

That's still no reason to go blackening his name like that.Take it up with him.You should have chased it up when you were first alerted to the problem and sorted it out then,not let it boil up and strait up Andy said he would give you a full refund.
In an industry where you know full well that your name means everything,it's just wrong to be calling a high reputable race car builder 'dodgy' over what you have mentioned.
If Andy was dodgy he wouldn't have a buisness FULL STOP.

I talk to Andy every other day via email and I can't even begin to tell you how much he has helped me.He's an absolute legend.

Anyway enough has been said about this,let's move on.

[ECU-MAN]

hey guys, keep this thread on topic.

AK has offered a rerund earlier in this thread.

please take it to PM

[grumpy rooster]

3' exhaust will not be too big. It may give no gain over say a 2.5" exhaust but its not going to lose power. With the mods you have you should see a difference in both power and torque. You will feel the difference.

Why no greddy cold air induction system???
