tracker - i believe you mean KPM not KTM.

kings park motorsport, next door to exhaust technology on goodwood rd. they are a bit pricey but they are pretty good from what i've heard. i've been and had a chat with them about tuning my car but yet to book it in. not a capa tune though.

Beware, all EL owners!

I was booked in last FRI at BPT here in Perth to get the SCT Eliminator Chip & custom dyno tune on my EL XR6 ...and the day turned out to be a big disappointment :(

My ECU catch code is 6TAA ...and Barry at BPT couldn't find any tunes to match my ECU in the software catch code directory.

In fact, he could only find 1 EL ECU catch code that was supported, and even that program didn't seem to be set up properly!

Apparently this was a problem Barry took up with CAPA months ago when he had the software & chip for R&D ...and it still hasn't been rectified.

Anyway, the bottom line is that I couldn't get anything done to my EL ...both me & Barry were pretty f**k off. :x

Barry doesn't see any updates being added for EL ECU's in the near future either.

I'm going to call CAPA myself on MON and ask WTF's going on with EL programming.

Apparently all the EF ECU's are supported ...but it seems us EL owners are going to have to wait a while longer!

And on CAPA's website they state all EF-EL's are supported ...what a CROCK :?

If I get no joy out of CAPA, f**k it ...I'm going to look at Chiptorque instead (which seems like an equivalent product) ...at least they seem to have their products & s**t together. :x

Are you serious! I can't believe CAPA do all these supercharger kits and s**t and they don't even have a bloody dyno!


thats right, no dyno, they sometimes send cars over here to Mildura to use one of the local dyno's...

A little disappointing. I was hoping for something simple and similar to the AU-BF flash tuner. Plug and play.


I don't see the point in a plug and play unit, as shown with the BAs there not that overly great - peoples cars are usually modded differently. The tunes are far beter with custom dyno tune done.
