Oztrack has been an Australian Reseller of EFILive since 2006; we have supplied EFILive Flashscan & EFILive licenses to numerous workshops and individuals. Being located in Sydney, we have, over the past 18 years, had access to and tuned a vast number of cars. This has allowed our strategies to develop highly, and we have had experience with a wide range of common problems that present themselves with the LS engines.
EFILive
EFILive has what we consider industry-leading data-logging software. This gives the tuner critical information influencing the fine-tuning of every car’s tune calibration. Its software for editing the calibration is highly advanced and uses the latest Windows styling for menus, etc. It is also being constantly updated for new models of vehicles and extra features are being added steadily. The updating process isn’t easy, and it is in this area, we often help workshops by providing support with firmware updates and software updates and teaching about the new features. We can also program the device to be used on its own without a laptop for logging purposes in race cars, etc. We choose the best parameters to be used and program them in. There are also situations where external sensors can be connected to Flashscan and setup, eg, wideband air-fuel systems and exhaust gas temperature detectors.
HP Tuners (VCM Suit)
We also tune and support HPTuners, especially with SRT engines in Jeep/Chrysler/Dodge/Chrysler 6.4L 392. We have had great success tuning cam upgrades in the new 392. We can get it driving nicely and making great power.
We can also tune LS engines with HPTuners, cam upgrades/superchargers, etc.
Tune Calibrations
Because we are in Australia, your exchange rate makes buying our support relatively cheap if you live in the USA. We quote in Australian dollars, and so does the conversion.
We offer calibrations that have been highly developed and would be our starting point when doing tunes in-house. These are usually highly modified versions of the tune calibrations read from the vehicle. We call these starter tune calibrations “Base Tunes”. These are supplied via email with instructions for what needs to be done to complete the tune and we then offer support with adjusting the base tune to customize it via email, we liaise with the workshops on the phone and can even connect to the workshop PC to assist with the tuning support live.
Remote Support
In this situation, we can remotely control the keyboard and mouse and see the screen on our PC. We have tuned race cars remotely in Europe this way and made many adjustments when cars are at race tracks, including Bathurst 12hr. Our Remote Tuning Service is highly developed, and we have been doing this for over 10 years.
Business Partnership Aims
We aim to help our partner workshops make money, and in doing this, we also make money. We strongly believe car by car is the best way to learn to tune. We could easily offer “introduction to tuning” workshops since Steve, our Head Tuner, has a Scientific & Teaching background. Still, we believe that tuning courses are a far slower way to learn the specific skills needed than one car at a time. This is because tuning is a highly specialized field and includes a vast amount of technical information that has to be heard, understood and remembered. Information overload is the biggest hurdle; it doesn’t usually help people get past their first tuning hurdle. The best way to do this is with repeated experiences of the proper techniques. We can offer the beginning tuner the security of being warned of the risks, and, at the same time, the confidence of knowing what they are doing is a proven procedure rather than aiming to re-invent the wheel. We have the experience of having seen many weird things the cars often do and knowing what to do to counter them or prevent them. What we haven’t experienced, we want to help problem-solve with the workshop.
Call 02 9119 3895 for more information about the Oztrack Workshop Partner Program. We also offer many of our parts at trade prices for our partners.
We also now offer support for Tuners using HPTuners and provide Base Tunes for HPTuners and remote support
