Seademon 0 Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 Load of crap - doesnt list cars newer than 94 either! If sonmething seems too good to be true it usually is.Probably just makes it run a bit richer! Link to post Share on other sites
thegoth 5 Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 Cars newer then 94 won't need it/gain from it. It will simply be a generic OBD2 type mapping, tweaked to work on OBD1.It's cheap because it's a copy of a commercial chip on a $2 EEPROM. Not VW Motorsport though, his earlier listings mentioned a Belguin tuneing house.I was only put off by the idea of having to take a soldering iron to my ECU. He does have good feedback, offers a money back guarantee. And the science makes sense. Unlike the air flow resitors.Just my 2Ps worth.TG Link to post Share on other sites
gav_113 0 Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 u dont have to solder chip in, u just pull std one out of the carrier and replace it. i done mine with a advanced motorsport chip. didnt make much difference tbh, pulls better and highers limiter. i paid £30 for mine.
