Citroen tuners in Brisbane

[THE_EGG]

Hi again all,

I know this will seem silly to ask if anyone knows any Citroen tuners in Brisbane on this forum but I have no where else to ask. There is NO Citroen owners club or the like. Anyway I thought I could ask here as you guys come accross as nice people . So yeh, just wondering whether you guys know any citroen parts shops or citroen tuning shops in Brisbane. Thanks in advance

Don't know of any, but try calling Guy at Harding Performance in East Brisbane. If any such place exists, he will probably know about it.

Cheers, I will do that. The closest place I found was a Citroen Motorsport place in Sydney :/

is this to up the power of your ds3?

why not try one of the sponsors on this forum? im sure viezu or dna tuning would have a tune for your car by now.

either that, or get the car custom dyno tuned, which would likely be the best alternative.

Depends what you got, Superchips do tunes for them we do Renaults, Pugs, Hyundai, and much much much more, not only VAG like some
Check the drop down box in - www.superchips.com.au

Thanks, I've emailed Carformance so I'll see what they have to say.

I don't suppose if anyone would have a rough idea as to how much extra horsepower I would get on my DS3? According to the workshop at the Citroen dealership its currently at 125.7bhp and 172.?Nm (can't remember the decimal for torque). Thanks.

You probably won't get a whole lot of love or your tuning question, but doesn't AussieFrogs still exist?

Thanks for the replies everyone. So I just remembered that the engine in my DS3 is the same 1.6N/A engine which is shared by BMW (for the MINI), Citroen and Peugeot. So does that mean I could try a BMW/MINI tuning garage and perhaps a Peugeot one as well?

Check out James from Bayside Performance Services.
I have only ever heard great thiings about their custom tunes and they did a great job on my muffler delete pipe.

Thanks will do. They sure did do a good job, i saw it myself at Lakeside (well just the car and the end of the exhuast) but you get what I mean . Thanks again.

the_egg, as far as im aware, it's not about increasing horsepower in an N/A car (well, maybe 6-10hp and same nm), so much as smoothing out the power and torque curves.

i've been doing lots of reading on clio and twingo forums over the last few weeks, and the clio and twingo boys all talk of not really increases in power, but increases in driveability and mid range torque over stock.

sorry JMac, i'd forgotten superchips

[THE_EGG]

Thanks for the replies everyone! Looks like I will be getting a tune from Viezu at Carformance, in fact its on this forum too! I also found where I can get parts for my DS3 although probably only spark plugs as the exhuast is WAY too expensive and will probably only get a custom exhaust locally.

Ah bummer mate , shame that, but yep true that about James out there, if you want a custom tune, which by far is the way, give him a ring, He will be custom tuning my 6N2 rocket when the time comes for sure
Hey Buller , now worries champ
