Anyone in the Sidney area?

Hi guys,

I'm looking for someone in the Sidney area to test something we are working on. Preferably with a PROcede. Anyone?

Shiv,
I spoke to you mid last year in regards to a timeframe when you thought a "local" Sydney BMW Dyno workshop might take up and support the sales, fitment and dyno tuning of the ProCede piggyback ECU. We have quite a few workshops dotted around Sydney that could fullfill this arrangement and become your local reseller. I think this would alleviate and reduce support pressure you receive on a daily basis, especially when our countries are so distant.
PM me if you need a short list to details on these workshops. I realise that no resellers/supporters have been setup by Vishnutuning yet but I believe that arrangement would work here - besides group dyno days Downunder would yield interesting datalogs on our various 95/98 RON Fuel and be fun also in the process.
It's all we Aussies can ask for, considering the exposure and popularity we gave Vishnutuning's ProCede at the Bathurst WPS 24hr Easter race !!
p.s. ... Shiv, a trip to Australia and a Dyno day would be nice !!! ....dreaming

You will enjoy it.

Give me a PM if you want some installation support, I'm on the north side so I think fairly close to you.

I think the people that make the Proceed box do some limited support & are in theory resellers.

Not sure if Shiv wants to let the code out of the bag so to speak to enable a local tuner to make changes, would be more like the exceed then.

You need to open up the ECU again.

There is a new green wiring loom that replaces the old one, several new wires for the bypass plugs and several new wires for tapping into the boost solenoid controls.

Firmware & map update using a laptop via serial connector on the proceed it's self.

Should take you about 45 mins to an hour to do.

WOPALX--- Just sent you a PM To everyone else, thanks for your offers. Might need another car as well. If so, I'll be sure to bug you guys again!

Sparky66--- I do plan to come to Sidney sometime in the next 3-4 months. Or at least that is my intention a this point. And yes, I would love to set up a dyno shop to do fitment and testing. Great idea.

Shiv,

Email responded to.

You should talk to Jim at Tunehouse in Marrickville. Great dyno facility and knowledgeable guy on all sorts of turbo & non-turbo cars.

His email address is jim@tunehouse.com.au .

Regards,

Stuart
