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.
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
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!
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.
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
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.
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.
How do I know who to trust around in Perth? I have a brand new vehicle and don’t want to send it some rock ape and completely ruin the show for me and leave me stranded!!
Cheers shauno, I have a 200 and tow an excavator everyday and have noticed a slight loss in power, does anyone know if there is an ultimate diesel here in Perth, reckon I might have a problem somewhere
A factory turbo doesn't over spin. Turbos are driven by exhaust gases and the pressure they create on intake is what gives you boost pressure, saying that it will target a specific boost and having a boost leak can over rotate the turbo is a straight lie, I like watching this channel but often in these product review videos it's misleading at best.
Mate please learn how turbos work. Your comment couldn't be more wrong. If you have a boost leak your turbo will spin faster to compensate to get to the right pressure. Some race cars control their boost by using a blow off valve rather than a waste gate to maintain the inertia of the turbo. The downside is excessive spinning of the turbo.
Why don't you guys use gas powered vehicles I know diesel can last longer but some of the places you go the gas powered engine will probably be better?
I 2nd power Tourqe, 500$ for my fte with DTE chip already installed! Ultimate diesel couldn’t tune my DTE chip they wanted to put a unichip in and tune that which was 2k.
Carpark tune at 1000 dollars is a rip off not sure were u get those lmao 😂 normally about a few hundred and are fine if you Maintain your vehicle but when you got heaps of cash and it just goes to the shop every time you will never learn how to fix or maintain your own vehicle 😉 😀 😊
@@jorjimaco5331 no you "carnt" My diesel 4x4 is a good $60,000 cheaper than your ram and does everything yours can do, except I can actually fit in car spots and function around suburbia and absolutely wipe your arse off road in the bush.
As a Diesel Mechanic with over 25 years experience please be careful more fuel means more black smoke more carbon build up in your cylinder and you will crack the compression ring and lose compression just giving advice
Hey boys I lost my job in May during the pandemic, just scored myself a diesel mechanic apprenticeship to reskill into something I love, started 2 weeks ago. Thought you'd wanna hear it. Keep up the content fellas you've been a godsend during the unemployed times.
@@ZX6R-w6y Its going really well actually man thanks for asking. Haven't made too many mistakes and feel way more confident now than I did when I first started. Hoping to get into working on earthmoving equipment when I get qualified. Thanks for asking mate.
After destroying a std common rail engine( ranger, injector fail = hole in piston, 10 k for 2nd hand engine)Then a V8 crd 76 cruiser with excessive blow by. I have now gone Back to a tuned TD42, PRE common rail, same grunt, Heaps more reliable. And the pootrol is way more capable off road
diesel engines dont run lean, they ether overfuel or under power (not the same as running lean) as diesel's are a compression ignition engine but hey what would i know
@@tristo8881 haha yeah cause doing a tune on common rail diesels , don’t account for correction values in ecu over time and if your having issues sometimes won’t show the injectors at fault cause map been changed
So I got a new intercooler and custome tune from ultimate diesel and it blows black.. not good all out of a sudden? 🤔 Oh and I forgot that the new intercooler piping popped of on 2 different connections because the clamps weren't tight...
Sounds good mate, but I will keep my 8Lt 6 cyl normally aspirated diesel 4X4, there is no substitute for cubic inches. Much better & more reliable than a high strung Hiroshima screamer rice burner.
@@staytuned9176 No Worries Mate But you completely missed the point, or you cant read the English language correctly, either way a bloody turbo is just another rice burner wannabe sub for the lack of real cubes.
@@staytuned9176 That's Spot-On Mate, & yes you are correct we do cruse along between 80/90 km/h & have been for the last 7 years, but you also have to take into account we weigh just under 14 tons & a range of approximately 1,370 km. Due to the fact that most of our travels are extremely remote at times the less to go wrong the better, hence the reluctance for any bolt on bullshit As they say Keep It Simple Stupid (KISS) & were never in any dam hurry to get anywhere anyway.
Why not go back to a horse an cart natural breathing all the time and cuts the lawn. That combination could be good for you an your 14 tons but your a little off topic mate.
Iv done plenty of diesel road tunes. I log using data from software like Techstream both before and after remapping. I do a general health check pre tune as well. I log Air fuel ratio with an Innovate sniffer. I also hook up a temp boost guage. To confirm what the map sensor is reading is accurate. Not all carpark tuners are equal. My files are prepared by professional writers and can be changed as many times as I need. My transmission files are also custom designed. I use a smoke maker to check for manifold and plumbing leaks. When I offer optional dyno hire for the extra dollars people opt for the road tune 9 times out of 10. I have also had to retune vehicles that ultimately had been to big dyno tuners and were suffering from overfueling and reliability issues.
@@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
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
I payed for a dyno tune but i feel like i got a reflash, a dyno run and out the door. My 2.5 r51 pathfinder smokes heaps on high rpm. A good diesel tune should not smoke if done correct. Wish i had a tuner like you in my area. 98kw to 114kw, Max boost from 22psi to about 25psi. More fuel, Torque 400 to 500NM. Car feels heaps better but i dont like the extra soot.
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?
@@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...
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.
Very misleading video. Theres a lot more to this scenario. All of this "Custom tune" hype. Even some of the custom tunes are just as horrific as some reflash tunes.
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
