Two runs, two peak numbers β€” but the number on its own doesn't tell you which one's actually better.

Look at the curves instead. The red run hits its peak earlier and holds it longer through the mid-range β€” that's the one you'd actually feel from behind the wheel, every time you're on the throttle before redline. The blue run peaks higher at the top but gets there later and falls away quicker once it's past it.

That's why a dyno sheet is never just about the top number. Where the curve builds, how flat it stays, and where it drops off all matter more than the single biggest figure at the very end of the pull.

When we tune a car, we're shaping that whole curve to suit how it's actually driven β€” not just chasing a number for the sheet.

282.6kW / 378.9HP at the rear.

HSV GTS β€” MCA Pro Comfort coilovers, full Hurricane exhaust with ceramic coated extractors and twin 3" 409 stainless steel system, VCM OTR, custom dyno tune. Dialled in on the Mainline until the curve was clean.

The plate says PUREV8. The dyno agrees.

Engine back in, Hurricane exhaust on, and this Grange is a different car.

Cam package installed, ceramic coated extractors and a full 409 stainless system to match β€” then straight onto the dyno for a proper retune, because a cam without a tune to match it is just noise.

Result: 300.4kW / 402.8HP at the rear wheels.

If your LS platform is ready for the next step, this is exactly the kind of build we do best.

A proper cam upgrade doesn't start with a cam. It starts with the engine on a stand.

This HSV Grange came in for a cam package β€” but before anything goes near the heads, the whole engine comes out for a full inspection, clean and reseal. No shortcuts, no reusing tired gaskets just to save a step.

With the heads off and the block prepped, the new cam package goes in, along with a fresh set of ceramic coated headers, ready for the Hurricane exhaust system.

Retune and dyno numbers coming later in the week...

279kW / 373HP from a 2.0L four.

Mercedes-AMG CLA45 β€” Stage 2 tune, downpipe checked and confirmed, dialled in on the Mainline until the curve was clean.

Compact car. Not a compact number.

517kW / 693HP on the dyno.

Mercedes-AMG G63 β€” Brabus, PTP power. Full Stage 2 calibration on the Mainline, dialled in run after run until the numbers matched the intent.

This one doesn't do subtle. Now it doesn't do slow either.

"Had my old man's VE Commodore tuned here after a rebuild and cam upgrade. The previous tuner had locked the ECU, but the team went above and beyond to track down someone to unlock it. Car's now tuned and running great. Thanks heaps guys, not often these days you see a business go above and beyond! Highly recommend!!!"
β€” Brendan J via Google Reviews

Locked ECU. Most shops would've handed it back. Ours went and found a way to unlock it anyway.

A shop that gets the job done, even with a previous tuner's ECU lock standing in the way.

Thanks Brendan for the kind words β€” glad we could sort your old man's VE out!

In 1988, Holden built 500 numbered Commodores that had no business looking the way they did β€” deep front spoiler, side skirts, flared guards, a wing you could land a plane on. Enthusiasts called it the "Plastic Pig." Some called it the "Batmobile."

Underneath the panels: a 5.0L V8 bored to 5.32L, 274hp at 5,200rpm, Brembo four-pot calipers, adjustable Konis, and a close-ratio five-speed β€” built by Tom Walkinshaw's TWR to satisfy Group A homologation rules, not to look good in a showroom.

It worked. The Commodore SS Group A SV took outright victory at Oran Park in '88 and gave BMW M3s and Nissan Skylines all they could handle at Bathurst. Six seconds to 60, in a car with walnut trim and suede Recaros.

Original price: roughly $47,000 β€” double a standard Commodore. Concourse examples now clear $200,000+ at auction.

Would you have paid double for one back then? Let us know.

Intakes and exhausts are usually the first mods anyone buys β€” cheap, easy to fit, and they make a real difference to sound. On their own though, they're not doing much for power.

A cold air intake cuts restriction and heat soak on the way in. A cat-back or turbo-back exhaust cuts backpressure on the way out. Together they free up airflow through the engine β€” but the factory ECU has no idea any of that's changed. It's still running a fuel and timing map built around the old restriction.

That's where the actual gains come from: recalibrating the tune to use the extra airflow properly. Skip that step and you've bought a better sound system, not a faster car.

We spec intake and exhaust combinations to suit the engine and the goal, then dyno-tune around them β€” so the mods and the calibration are working together, not just sitting next to each other.

"I take all my GM cars here, and even my Mopars and have for nearly 15 years. No one else touches them but Mitch and his team. My dad takes his cars here, and so does my brother and uncle. When you find the best, you stick with the best."
β€” Christian McCarty, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Google Review

Him. His dad. His brother. His uncle. One shop, the whole family, for almost 15 years.

That's not luck. That's what happens when the work's right every time β€” GM platforms and Mopars alike.

Reasonable price. Real trust. The kind of review you can't buy.
