We are also able to control the following:

Tuned By Shane T the old intercooler design was an ice bath which is less efficient than the new design which uses a high volume pump to pump ice water through the intercooler cores. A MoTeC M800 engine management system controls the engine and regulates the boost. The engine was tuned by shane t

The office Ed has to work in - MoTeC ADL displays information to the driver while the MoTeC M800 and CDI-8 control fuel and ignition to the engine - of course both are expertly Tuned By Shane T
