Jellybean Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Be great to get first hand feedback on tuners from South and North, alot of hersay and somebody who knows somebody had issues with X Tuner Any recommendations based on your experiance? Who to avoid, who to trust Tuners Heres a few I know of but no experiance Westward Engineering TDP(Track Day Performance) East coast Customs AI Autosport Predator Motorsport SSI(Supra Specialists Ireland) One thing I will say Marty & Colin at SSI where very helpful when I needed advice over the phone , working on the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suprab1 Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Its not first hand but i know a few that have used Westward Engineering & say that Martin Tracey is a genius. You can see him at jap fest mondello, he will be driving an evo 4, a subaru wagon or sierra cosworth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supramkivcork Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 I personally would not let Predator make me a cup of tea not to mind tune my car. I've heard plenty of positive about westward engineering. Tdp is 50/50 from what I hear but it's more from a customer service point of view the complaints seem to come from. SSI : People seem to have nothing but good to say about them Heard plenty of positive about ECC but I'm sure Ernie could develop more on this as he had so much work done there.

I don't know anyone who has been to predator, but i was chatting to one of the guys at japfest 2 years ago & he showed me 2 supras. He had a single turbo supra for sale but i thought it looked untidy under the bonnet. He put the other one on the track & said it had 1000 hp, it didn't look all that fast on the track though. I asked him about a dyno print for it but he said they use a lad from uk to map the cars on the road. He can then tell you what power your car is by just driving it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsupratt6spd Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 SSI have been dealing with me for a number of years . From my first supra to my monster now. They know there stuff and will point you in the right direction . They will keep the cost down and tell you how it is (if your going over the top with mods) . Marty knows how fussy i am lol he never complains of a sore head j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
