Smile Goodbye Karlos G... Hello Karl @ FPT!

Morning Fella's!

The time has come to upgrade to a full trader account, as some of you know I run a small tuning company, Frenzy Performance Tuning based in Sudbury, Suffolk.

This new account allows me to help everyone more directly and of course offer my services too! lol Everything from a simple service and check-up, to full restorations, standalone management, engine rebuilds, gearbox builds, etc. etc.

Feel free to contact me directly for booking enquires or quotes, details are below or just PM me on here... Please do not to use the phone as a free helpline though, as much as I love to help where I can if I spend all day answering calls for help I'll never get anyone's car finished! lol I'll always be on here as much as I can replying to threads anyway

Here's a couple of pic's I took yesterday to give you an idea of my workshop, you may notice I do not have a dyno so all mapping is done live on the road.





You may also notice I do not just work on Fords lol

Many thanks,

Hmm... I'm showing as a Gold Member rather than a Trader, if a Mod could correct this please?
Either that or I've just paid for the worlds most expensive Gold Membership! lol

Congratulations fella, nuff respect for having the balls to build a business, be nice for Essex too not many tuners about round here...

What sorta services you offering as in will you be doing little jobs like say pulling a gear off a S2 box or will you be more into heavier money earners'?

Reason I ask is I'm VERY local to you so would be nice to be able too pop in drop a job and dash away again, untill hopefully time comes where I need some adjustments and or more custom stuff...thats if OFAC is do-able tweek wise by you.....


Again all the best with ya business, wish I could do it!!!!

I do most things mate, if you just wanted to drop a box in to have 5th gear pulled for example that's fine, don't know what other small things there are without having the car there though?
I can't live map OFAC, other than that there is only the fuel pressure and CO that can be adjusted.

Thanks mate, I've actually been open almost two years now and things are going well.
