What is Diesel Dyno Tuning?
Interested in learning about diesel dyno tuning for your vehicle? Just Autos have got you covered! Well, a dynamometer or dyno is a tool used for, simultaneously, measuring the torque and rotational speed of your engine, which is done so that instantaneous power can be calculated and displayed by the dyno as KW or torque print outs.
The use of a dyno is to measure the power of your diesel’s engine, in terms of power at the wheels.

- Clutch & dyno tune (2 days)
- Full packages (1 week)
Do I get a Dyno read out?
Every vehicle that goes onto the dyno will get a dyno sheet. However, some vehicles may not be able to be run up in standard form after some work is carried out. We will do everything we can to make sure before and after results are given.
What type of Dyno do you have?
We have 2 dynos on-site at Just Autos. One of which is an inground, all-wheel drive dyno, suited for vehicles which run consistently in all-wheel-drive. The other is a 2-wheel drive dyno. Both dynos are made by Dyno Dynamics.
When is the right time to tune my car?
From anywhere between 0 -500,000km, if the car is been taken care of correctly and maintained in a manner where the vehicle is still reliable then there would be no hesitation in tuning it and even with vehicle being tuned coming directly of the showroom floor. Tuning can be carried out at anytime in the life of the vehicle as long as its in reasonable condition.

Will tuning effect my Warranty?
Plain and simple, yes. Unfortunately, no manufacturer will cover any performance modification under the factory warranty program. We have spent countless hours upon trying to achieve high reliability from all our custom ECU remaps so that you don’t have to go back to the dealer for any warranty concerns that can be caused by aftermarket modifications.
