Default big day this saturday! can't wait

just got my tcm back last week with the tip chip installed

this saturday the new K04 and borla catback gets swapped on.

i am going to run it on the x-chip program for a few days till i send out the ecu for update

i planned on swapping in the 5 bar FPR as well

do you think it will run a little too rich or should i wait till the ecu is updated?

tip chip is nice


shifts are alot firmer, without being harsh

IMO its worth it. it just makes that factory feeling transmission feel like it will take more power now

black99--- friday night is a street tire test and tune agian at the local strip. i will keep you posted with the updated slips.


i might be asking for much but i hope the tip chip takes .5 second off the 1/4 mile run

You'd think it would take off more than that if it cuts shift time from 1 sec to .2 sec. Two shifts in the 1/4 saves you 1.6 sec theoretically.

i see the logic there but for some reason doubt it would shave that much

that would put my best 1/4 mile @ 14.9 from 16.5

only performance mods i have are x-chip and ecs n75j
