Default Bob Romano's

G'day All,

Firstly I don't want to offend any site sponsors so that is why I am posting this here in our Club Section and not in the general forum area. Most of the Clubbies will know that Bob, Esther, Chris and Luke at Bob Romanos Performance Motors have been long time supporters and sponsors of the Club. I would like to take the time this morning to thank the team there, especially Chris Romano and young Luke for the outstanding job they did on my Typhoon. It is a different car now, Chris is really one of the best when it comes to tuning Haltechs and at the risk of copping an avalanche of posts stating the opposite, you can't beat the advantage of real time tuning that you get with a piggyback computer.

Again thanks to all the team at BRPM, I can't get the smile off my face.

Cheers,

Ken

Yeh, yeh righto Al keep you pants on. It ended up at 284.5 RWKWs (381.5 RWHP). There seems to be a little bit of a restriction in the exhaust so I am going for a more free flowing Cat before we run it up again in a couple of weeks.

Default Capa??

Hi Ken,

Do you know if Bob Romanos have the software to tune the CAPA boxes?

If so, do you know if they've done many BA/BF's?

I'm looking for a new tuner.

Thanks,
Phil.

G'day Phil,

Yep Chris is a dab hand at the edit as well. Give him a call and I am sure he will spare the time for a chat,

Ken
