“HANDS ON Engine Performance Tuning Day”

Master Instructor: Yavuz of Unigroup Engineering

Proudly brought to you by ALPHA OMEGA Parts and Services

First of its kind

Are you a DIYer who has modified your own car and wants to tune it too?

Are you an automotive enthusiast wanting to learn more about getting the most out of your engine and your modifications?

Maybe an aspiring engine tuner?

Then you will love this day!

This is for all automotive enthusiasts to broaden your knowledge of how to improve your overall engine performance, plus get hands on dyno time.

  • Find out the secrets to tuning!
  • Get hands on interactive dyno tuning on one of your own cars (under professional supervision so it won’t get harmed)
  • You specify exactly what you want to learn
  • No question too hard, too silly, or too off limits
  • Very small group size: 6 people only

Soooo... what exactly is this?

We have finally convinced master tuner Yavuz Guven of highly-respected Unigroup Engineering to teach you anything you’ve ever wanted to know about engine tuning. There is no set “course” as Yavuz will teach you what you want to learn and nothing that you don’t. Anything can be taught and you literally define the contents of the day.

Seriously, what can I learn?

Anything! Here are some of the things you may want to learn:

  • I just installed a new modification; can you show me how to retune the car to get the most out of it?
  • What is the right AFR to use and what happens if I change it?
  • How can I pass EPA emissions tests?
  • How can I fix what is causing knock/ping/detonation?
  • What is a safe level of boost for my engine?
  • How do we choose the right camshafts?

What else makes this different?

About Yavuz and Unigroup Engineering

Yavuz first started high performance engine tuning in the early 1990’s on carburettors. He proceeded on to formal education at the University of Technology Sydney gaining a Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering, which is his greatest strength as a high performance engine tuner. Since then, Yavuz has participated in countless training courses including those held by engine management system manufacturers, and has also worked in the field of vehicle emissions testing which further strengthens his tuning experience and knowledge.

In 2002 Yavuz co-started Unigroup Engineering with the main focus being high performance engine tuning. This key aspect differentiates Unigroup Engineering from the others as their core business, from the very first day, has been dyno tuning. On average Yavuz spends 20 hours a week tuning high performance cars as well as tuning for best emissions for EPA tests; he has tuned hundreds of cars to date used for road, rally, drift, drag and circuit racing.

His passion is now in high tech high performance turbocharged fuel injected vehicles but still likes old school carburettors and distributors.

To anyone else thats reading this. I was a bit suspicious that the post didnt come from unigroup or list them as a contact.

I called unigroup this morning to confirm that this is legit and i have been advised that it is.

I attended this on the weekend,

I can not describe just how good this day was. The knowledge that yavus and his team where passing on was priceless, and can only come from years of experiance. The day was great we covered a range of topics. Not just spacific tuning topics but mechanical ones and how it effects tuning. Yavus and the team had no problems answering any questions,

The time on the dyno was great, just the basic set up of the AFR and ING timing for a set rpm was great showing just how an engine responds was very surprising compared to what you would normally be discussed on a forum.

It was a great day, I will highly recommend it to anyone.

I would like to thank wing for organising it.

And of course I can not thank Yavus and the unigroup team enough, they are a level above the rest and they give so much back to the community. I can't wait for a stage 2 course, wonder if I can pre book from now.

I came at the end and I learned so much in that little timeframe, like how and why ignition timing affects torque so much, fuel atomization, usage and economy, decay and corrections.

Yavuz is exceptionally knowledgeable and skilled as you can expect from a person who holds a Degree in Mechanical Engineering and is also a seasoned professional dyno tuner, especially when it comes to explaining concepts in regular english.

Unigroup Engineering and ALPHA OMEGA would like to thank the first group (including a female, OMG?) for their support, and the next session will be up in the next post...

Here a quote from one of the participants on the day:

Well, I can highly recommend the day. I went to the 14March session, and thought it was well worth it, even if you aren't going to actively tune your own.

First up, some basic knowledge, and an understanding of what people wanted to gain out of the day. Once we'd gained some basic insight, on to test out some of the theory on the dyno, with everyone getting time to sit with Yavuz in the car and dial in and out more fuel and more advance, and see the effect on power...

Next sesion, dates available are: April 18, April 25, May 2, May 9, May 16

All enquiries and bookings to: ALPHA OMEGA Parts & Services: [email protected]

We group people with similar skills and knowledge, so the best thing is to select as many dates as possible that suits your schedule and if there are enough similar people to yourself, we will go ahead with a date that the whole group is available on.

Also, Unigroup Engineering were so happy with the way the first session went that they will extend the $350 offer :P

so are these new dates going to cover the part 2 bits we discussed at the end of last time. I mean can the group on the 14th book in again and get a class that builds on the last one?

Eager beavers! lol

Those dates is for everybody who hasn't previously attended. As Yavuz was saying we'll work on a follow up session to build on everything you've just seen, learnt and done. Now that he's gotten to know you, when there is a group on the same page ready for the follow up session, we'll be sure to notify you.

This was a fantastic day. Thanks very much to Yavuz and the guys at unigroup for making the day flow and providing loads of information in a way that doesnt overwhelm.

The mixture of theory and hands on experience was excellent, allowing us to test the theory whilst it was still fresh in our minds.

I recommend this course to anyone who has an interest, i guarentee you will come away with alot!

Thankyou again!

Amy

p.s Thanks Wing- for continuing to express your disbelief that a female attended... haha :down:

Nice to meet you Amy, who would've thunk eh? :)

Yavuz teaches the fundamentals of engine performance and tuning and you can apply that to any car and any ECU (as long as you can access it) just like using a NOKIA and a SONY ERICSSON so to speak. He also shows you how and why things happen and how you can extract the most out of your setup... well actually, he'll teach you anything about high performance engines and dyno tuning :)
