Cant really see any gain in mpg yet. I heard it from other people, but my mileage stayed just the same. I am gonna have to check into that some more over the next couple of weeks when I do some more regular driving.

I heard a rumor a while back that the computer knows the boost from the turbo, and lots of other data (maybe EGT?) Can one of these darned chips read that and provide a lead to a guage or display so we know what is going on without running wires and drilling new holes. The ability to store a history of this stuff and dump it to usb device would be nice too.

It seems a shame to have to add more plumbing (for trans, for EGT, for turbo, etc) if the computer already knows what we want.... one of these chips just needs to tell us. I would also like to know what the rail pressure is stock. The kind of data you could get real time would be very usefull. Not to mention if you could use that data to tweak the settings even more (every vehicle is different).

Heck, if the chip did not do anything but provide me data for displays/guages I would buy it.


This will show you everything but EGT, I don't have one yet, but someone posted on here a while back, he really liked it. I found one left over at Sears and like a dummy I didn't throw down the cash at the time. :(:(

I got the same standard e-mail back that everyone else seems to be getting. I replied and asked how long the "test period" was....or how long I would be expected to report in on how it worked. He said that it would be two weeks. That doesn't seem like a very long testing period to me. Perhaps this is just a ploy to sell their product?
