Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is car tuning?

    Car tuning is the process of modifying a vehicle’s engine, electronics, or suspension to improve performance, or handling. It can involve remapping the ECU, upgrading exhaust systems, or installing performance parts. Tuning is often done for motorsports, better responsiveness, or personal preference. Always ensure modifications comply with local regulations and don’t void your warranty or insurance.

  • How can I improve my car’s performance?

    Performance can be improved through a range of upgrades including ECU tuning, turbocharging, exhaust system enhancements, intake upgrades, and gear ratio changes. Each modification can target specific goals like better acceleration, improved torque for towing, or enhanced fuel economy.


    In many cases, combining several smaller upgrades provides better all-round results than a single major one. It’s important to work with experienced mechanics to ensure any improvements are safe, legal, and suited to your vehicle.

  • Are performance upgrades legal in Australia?

    Yes, many performance upgrades are legal in Australia, but they must comply with state and territory road safety regulations. Certain modifications—such as engine swaps, turbo installations, or suspension lifts—may require certification through approved inspection stations.


    It’s essential to ensure all upgrades meet the Australian Design Rules (ADRs) and are professionally installed. Always check with your local transport authority before proceeding, especially if the upgrade could impact emissions or vehicle safety standards.
