ecu question

[TheNailGuy]

How would I go abouts to getting my p28 chipped? Or would I be better off buying one that's already chipped?

I'm pretty sure you just have to find a place that chips ecu's and let them do it for you

go to a tuner shop....either a place that does dyno tuning, or a spot that sells aftermarket performance parts. they will be able to send you in the right direction. g/l

not in most instances...alot of the shops that sell those parts just are totally clueless on everything

A friend told me to send it to uberdata. But I can't seem to fin their contact info. You know of a place I can send to?

 

[Samurai_Blue]

depends, are you just chipping it to have a basemap or are you dyno tuning it?

Just for a basemap till I can get it tuned

phearable will do it for you but you buy the ecu from them. then you have to run chrome or something like that later. Or a hondata S300. Talk to your tuner and see what he can tune on

thats with those fly by night shops....Im not saying have them chip the ecu. they should have a good tuner they use "IF" they are a true perf. shop with mechanics working on track cars. they should be able to send him to a tuner for a base map. Yet in each state, i dont know the amount of real perf shops, many are popping up as distributors to make a quick $$$, but here in jersey there seems to be a shyt load now and growing every year....i can think of at least 6 diff shops that would be able to chip or send you to at least 4 diff dyno tune spots. a base came with the purchase of my P28, and was willing to hook up a few pulls on the dyno for cheap to see what the gsr was doing. Now the shops around here are doing dyno sessions for like $300-$350 for a tune during the winter.
but I will admit that there are a few spots that dont know their ass from an accelerator lmaooo

 

[TheNailGuy]

Blehh I might just end up buying one off ebay that's already chipped.

 

[Samurai_Blue]

i rather not gamble with what kind of "chip" phereable is a good place

 

[TheNailGuy]

Yeah your right blue. Phearable it is. I'd rather go with a company that's reputable. Plus their f&q's section was worth reading lol.
