G'day everyone,
I thought I'd introduce myself and my ride, a 97 Nissan GQ Patrol which I installed an LS1 from a Holden Commodore in last year. I'm looking forward to getting some info and learning more about this awesome engine.
Cheers

Welcome to LS1Tech! Awesome picture of your rig. The scenery is amazing. How does it run?

It runs well, I think I need a tune though. It's got a 212/218 cam, Beehive valve springs, Precision roller rockers, bigger injectors, Aeroflow fuel rails and a couple of other goodies. I'm still running the stock tune including the MAF. Do you think I'd see much of an improvement from a good dyno tune?
Cheers

Thanks mate, that pictures taken up the top of the Blue Rag Range track in the Victorian High Country. It's an amazing place and one I try to get to as often as possible.

And not necessarily a dyno tune, but even a street tune will make that rig run night and day different. Money very well spent!

You absolutely need a tune. Anytime injector sizing (flow rate) gets changed, the tune goes whack. You will be amazed at how much power, driveability, and fuel mileage you’ll pick up with a good tune. I’ve seen a good tuner pick up 45 horsepower over a “decent” tune. You’ll be glad you did!
