Default capa tune

Sorry about the spelling I am only new to this and alcohol tends to do that. Are the capa flash tunes out of the box ok for the an AU3 six with extractors and full exhaust system and CAI, or do you have to get custom tuned. I've heard the standard tunes run a bit rich.

Tunes do come off the shelf but youre much better off going for a custom one done on a dyno to suit your car.

I am just about to go through all of this on Monday so if you can wait until then I will post up my experiences afterward.

Always best to get a custom tune, too many variables between cars for a generic tune IMO. Have a chat to the tuner that you get the box from and go from there is the best bet.
