Recent Work

Nick, an Isuzu owner, was looking to improve the low-end torque of his vehicle, especially for towing and beach driving. He opted for an ECU remap to achieve this.

This remap delivered an impressive extra 120 Nm of torque, and crucially, this peak torque was achieved 260 rpm earlier (at 1600 rpm compared to 1860 rpm before). This considerable increase in low-end torque at a lower RPM makes a substantial difference, particularly for applications like towing and navigating challenging terrains such as beach driving, where immediate and robust power delivery is essential.

Performance Stats

  • Before: 135 hp / 419 Nm @ 1860 rpm
  • After: 158 hp / 541 Nm @ 1600 rpm

Highly recommend Elite Tune Mechanical.Their website is super insightful and makes it really easy to get a quote or book your car in. I recently had a full suspension upgrade done with them — I supplied all the parts and they handled the installation. The whole process was seamless, and the team was friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful throughout.Six months later, the ride still feels amazing, which says a lot about the quality of their work. I also just went back for a service, and once again they delivered. I had somewhere to be at 8am but was booked for 8:30am — they accommodated me without any hassle and took great care of both me and the car.On top of that, the garage itself has a really clean, premium, almost exclusive feel to it.Great service, great people, and quality work you can trust.

The team down there at Elite Tune were an absolute pleasure to deal with, and the service was second to none.They are a one-stop shop and with no hassle at all, and I'm not sure if there is anything that they cant get completed for you. I dropped in my 79 series, they got the windows tinted, the rego changed over from QLD to WA with the safety cert completed, anchor points for the kids installed, a service, exhaust upgrade and a mad tune all completed stress-free and ahead of schedule.I would highly recommend Elite Tune to anyone, and I will be getting them to do all my work from now on. Smashed it out of the park and thanks again to the team at Elite Tune!!!!
