Hey guys.. as promised I'm posting about the eprom ecu and stage 3 chip i got from Jeff at dsmchips. My car has never driven this well. Not even when it was completely stock. He will even buy my old eprom ecu that was in the car. Everything is compensated by the ecu instead of the piggyback maft and safcII that I have. They are both zero'd out and the car runs beautifully and boosts stronger and faster than it ever has. With my chip I got:
1. Phantom knock fix
2. Higher idle speed - 1000rpm
3. Fuelcut removal
4. Airflow cap removal
5. Knock MIL
6. Global Fuel and deadtime correction- 650 injectors-
7. Open-Loop Fuel or Timing map changes - 93 octane, 49psi fuel pressure
8. Rev limiters -8000rpm
9. Octane reset
10. Boost Control Solenoid disable
11. Knocksum on the factory boost gauge
12. A/C Cutout
13. Random Misfire MIL removal
14. MIL Bug fix.
15. Stutterbox (5 selectable) 4500/4750/5000/5250/5500 rpm

thats basically what i got done to mine, im excited to try it out once i get my car running

 

nice write-up. I have heard good things about these. Its great if you dont have major mods going on

 

Major mods like what? I have everything done that can be done other than forged internals and an upgraded tranny and it works beautifully. Probably the best and smartest money that I have ever spent. The only thing is I have to lean out the high map a little. A/F ratio (10.0-10.2 at full boost) Building up and spooling is amazingly fast and consistant. Low maps are perfect.

 

Well thats keeping your motor safe right now.

Glad to hear everything is A-OK

 

by major i mean running 400+hp

 

WIth some fine tuning, thats possible

 

tuning and bigger injectors... the injectors are the only lag in my fuel delivery at the moment (650). Sigh... I'll get there eventually. I still have the maf-t and safcII hooked up so I can fine tune the high maps whenever I get a free weekend. If its running that rich at wot... wouldn't bigger injectors just make it worse... shouldn't I get a bigger turbo than my 50 trim to throw some more air into the mix with the bigger injectors? Thanks guys

 

sorry for another post... other than forged internals and tranny work... what else is holding me back from 400+hp?

 

Nothing really.

Dude don't bother with the MAF-T that **** will **** you off so bad. Plus the tune will be much better on the stock MAS
