Kicking this thread back to life as I really want to find a decent dyno tuner.
Can't track down any info on I.C.E performance. Not even a white pages listing :?

Is is possible they've gone dark?

Had a mate reccomend MK Automotive?
Has anyone got any reports on them?

Please no bagging unless you know someone better. :D
I need constructive advice here.... :lol:

I spoke to Craig about a year ago actually and he said they just finished turboing an FTO and got about 155kW at the wheels. Wonder who's ride that was? Whatever happened to Genesis Racing?

they died and is now APBAutotech...I went there but wasn't that impressed but ok if you have no other options at leats they know what an FTO is. I think Kev is about right Craig used to work for Genesis Racing right? then RevZone should retain all his knowledge...afterall thats really what you are paying for.

Anyway getting back to the origional topic..is there any othe place (other than RevZone) that can do some decent Dyno action???
