What to expect on the night?

Holden-tuning tech talk

STM’s tuner Andre Simon has an enviable reputation. With over 10 years experience and a number of world records up his sleeve, his skills are in demand throughout NZ and around the world. Andre is also a regular tech writer for NZV8 magazine, New Zealand Perfomance Car magazine, and Australian Zoom magazine.

Andre will be discussing what STM can offer you, and how you can realise huge gains in power, torque and fuel economy from your Holden. There will be the opportunity to answer any questions you may have as well.

Dyno demonstration

A Dyno is the tool STM use to tune your Holden’s engine, and make sure that any of the performance parts they have fitted are making more power. STM have invested heavily in the most advanced dyno cell in the country and they want to show you how it works.

On the night, you can see exactly how the dyno works and why it is the safest way to tune your engine. You will get to see the dyno in action as we perform a live dyno demonstration with our VE SS Commodore at full throttle!

Bolt-on parts to improve your Holden

STM source only the best quality parts for upgrading and modifying your Holden. They have done the research and testing so you don’t need to – STM’s upgraded parts will fit right first time, and provide proven gains.

A selection of exhaust systems, intakes and headers will be on display in during the night.

 

OTR Intake System Shootout   
Over The Radiator (OTR) intakes are one of the best places to increase the performance of your Holden or HSV. Recently STM did an in-depth dyno analysis of some of the most popular options on the market for an upcoming issue of NZV8 magazine. On the night we will check out the pros and cons of each so you know what options are available and exactly what you can expect from them. Examples from each manufacturer will be on display too.

Thinking of buying a new car?

Thanks to our friends at Ebbett HSV, we will have a brand new HSV E3 Clubsport and a GTS on display for you to get up close and personal with. Todd from Ebbett HSV will also be there on the night and is willing to have his arm twisted for a great deal on a new or used Holden or HSV

 

Book a testdrive

If you are interested in improving the performance of your car but you aren't sure what to expect, book a test drive in our own VE SS Commodore demonstrator. Which will be sporting our stage 3 upgrade package, this bad boy is punching out over 400 kw!
