Legendary tuner Shane Tecklenburg returns to talk about turning LMP3 race cars into hill climb monsters, calibrating V12 air race planes, the realities of compound turbo setups, and much more.
Use “SHANET100” to get $100 off HPA’s Tuning Starter Package: https://hpcdmy.co/tuningpackageb
Shane Tecklenburg, or “Shane T” as he’s more commonly known, is one of the biggest names in the tuning industry, and for good reason. This long-time friend of High Performance Academy has been in the EFI tuning game for many years now, and has a reputation as the ultimate problem solver who can rectify all manner of difficult tuning issues that others have given up on.
After appearing in episode #1 back in 2021, Shane now returns for episode #120, allowing us to catch up on his latest projects, starting with an in-depth look at what it takes to transform an LMP3 circuit racer into a hill climb weapon with a sub-10 minute Pikes Peak ascent in its sights.
This leads us into a fascinating conversation around anti-lag, IMAP vs EMAP, and retaining as much power as possible as a car gains altitude.
Next, we get an interesting insight into the world of air racing, as Shane details his tuning adventures with V12-powered Thunder Mustang race planes and the unique challenges that come with calibrating these unique machines and their dual ECUs.
Back in 2021, we talked to Shane about one of the most interesting projects he’s been involved with — the Mazworx SR20VE-powered triple-compound turbo drag car. This machine is fairly well-known online thanks to its incredible aesthetics and unique turbo setup, so the update on this project from Shane is a very welcome one as the team strives for that magical 3000hp goal. The conversation then falls down the very deep compound turbo rabbit hole as Shane gets into the finer details of this forced induction arrangement.
As mentioned, you can listen to episode 60 featuring JT Oliver of JTO Power here.

What does it take to build, tune, and drive a monster Mitsubishi Evolution VIII with a 4.1-litre VR38DETT putting down 1065 hp to all four treads — on pump gas, no less? On this episode of Tuned In, we talk to the Armchair Tuner to find out.
Why ditch the 4G63?Why the VR38DETT?How is it still 4WD?What was the hardest part of the build and how was it dealt with? Has it changed how the car drives?Why even build something as unique as this car in the first place?

Conrad Bradley has been building fast cars and bikes for a long time, although he currently works outside of the automotive industry in the nuclear field. Conrad couldn’t tell us much about his current work projects for obvious reasons, but when it comes to his many interesting automotive projects, he’s an open book.
Over the years, Conrad’s built many fast cars — from rapid Subarus, to even faster Evos, to an immaculate Beams-powered AE86 — we discuss all those builds in this conversation, but it’s his one-of-a-kind Evolution VIII that we’re most interested in.
We dive deep into this build with Conrad, digging into the big questions, like:This is a fascinating look into a very serious build that presented a lot of problems, requiring unique solutions.
Further into the conversation, we also discuss the challenges of owning and operating a tuning shop, reflashing challenges, Evo strengths and weaknesses, and much more. This is a great listen for anyone interested in thinking outside the box when it comes to building cars and going fast.

Do I need electronic wastegate control? What about CO2? And how do I know what size wastegate is needed for my build? These questions and a whole lot more are answered thanks to this week’s guest, Matt Wright from Turbosmart.
Use “MATT25” to get $25 OFF HPA’s Boost Control course: https://hpcdmy.co/boostb
Matt has a unique understanding of the industry, having worked for two of Australia's biggest aftermarket performance brands — two decades at Haltech and a more recent move to Turbosmart.
We start this episode by delving into the path that Matt took to get where he is today, covering the early days of Haltech that saw him dealing with some fairly rudimentary electronics and software as a support tech. Matt grew with the company and would go on to head up Haltech’s expansion into the United States. There are some great discussions here about VE-based tuning, the future of standalone ECUs, and what Matt thinks is missing from the current crop of standalone offerings.
After 20 years of service, Matt decided to move across the road to Turbosmart, where he’s helped push the development of new products — especially its new range of turbochargers. Matt discusses these new turbos before diving deep into the world of boost control, getting way into the weeds on all things external wastegate.
Sure, the idea behind a wastegate is simple enough, but things get a little more demanding and complex when a vehicle’s performance starts to get pushed to its limits.

Quad Rotor vs V8, Procharger vs Natural Aspiration and more.
Use ‘PODCAST75’ for $75 off your first HPA course here: https://hpcdmy.co/hpa-tuned-in
It's hard to nail form and function, but Carl Thompson has it down to a fine art when it comes to drift builds between his old 1300HP 26B 4-rotor Aristo/GS300 build and this high compression 'small block' @Mast Motorsports 454ci (7.4L) LSX based V8 Nissan S15 Silva one that is another work of art. Even if you are a solid rotary fan it's hard not to appreciate the same level of detail and perfection that has gone into this LS-based S15 build.
We'll discuss why Carl moved away from his 4 rotors (one of which now powers Rob Dahms AWD RX7 build) and towards the MoTeC M130-controlled LS V8 platform as he has gotten more serious about competing and doing full-season campaigns along with why he chose a naturally aspirated setup despite having a procharger bolted on at some point in time.
The difference in power levels required for D1NZ and US series also pops up as well as the performance increases gained from his Dailey Engineering dry sump system and what the main driver displays and warnings he pays attention to during a competition run and interestingly why he went with a cast-iron LSX based block over the aluminium LS(x) blocks that are also able to handle sizeable power figures.

To get power to the ground the car runs a Holinger Engineering RD6 sequential, Tilton bell housing, flywheel and triple-plate carbon clutch leading to the Winters 25cm IRS quick-change and 35-spline stub axles.
A MoTeC M130, PDM30 and C125 logger/dash display and EMtron ETC4’s (for individual cylinder monitoring) round up the electronics side of things and giving Carl the ability to clutchless shift off the line. -

Let's be honest, power is easy to make these days. Anyone with a modest budget can build a 1000hp dyno queen, but what about high-output engines that are expected to last for more than just a few full-power dyno pulls?

Mixing a unique roots style blower (aka supercharger) with 8-into-1 headers for wow factor, Mitch Pullen of Pullen Spec Engines hasn't glossed over the essential parts to ensure this LS-based build will last. Improving rod angle, slowing piston speed, and choosing a stout valvetrain option over pure peak HP figures are all part of this, along with running a dual DBW throttle fuel-injected setup with 16 injectors over the carburettors you'd typically see on a setup like this.
Why roots-type blowers are considered so inefficient compared to other supercharging and turbocharging options is discussed, along with individual cylinder trimming and running rich 0.80 lambda of E85 fuel to help cool combustion charges for 8 PSI of boost, making an easy 800hp during the Garrett International Drifting Cup at World Time Attack Challenge.

Is 3D printing going to replace CNC machining in the near future?
Even your Mum has probably heard of 3D printing at this point, but what’s not so well understood — even by enthusiasts — is just how quickly this technology is advancing, and what's now possible when it comes to making your car faster, stronger, and more capable.
One person helping to push that technological envelope is this week’s guest, Joe Dopkowski of 3D Systems.
Use “3D50” to get $50 OFF our 3D Modelling & CAD for Motorsport Course:
https://hpcdmy.co/CADb
Joe has a background in mechanical engineering, and previous to working with 3D Systems, he spent time at OEM manufacturers developing parts for new vehicles. A long-time motorsport enthusiast, Joe has been able to combine his interests and work to push technological boundaries in the pursuit of more speed, working with F1 teams and aftermarket companies like BBi Autosport and English Racing.
In this conversation, Joe starts out by talking us through the history of 3D printing, but what we’re most interested in, is where the tech is at now, and where it’s heading in the near future.
Joe gets us up to speed here, discussing just how far this field has come in a short amount of time, and exactly what’s possible right now with current 3D printing capabilities. This means printing not just prototype plastic parts, but producing ultra-strong, ultra-light finished components from titanium, aluminium, and nearly any other metal you can imagine.
This episode goes deep on all things additive manufacturing, and is going to challenge any assumptions you might have about 3D printing. Prepare to open up a whole new world of possibilities when it comes to creating bespoke performance parts for your vehicle.
