I know there are a few good names but what works best with an SPI?

Why do you need a chip? ATX?

Looking to increase HP torque ... a chip like the diablo, but i heard they suck

Chips are pretty much pointless until you are running alot more bolt on mods. Honestly IMO a chip should be one of the last mods you do unless your running a ATX cause you can change shift points as well.

I agree. Unless you have the atx. Get it for the shift points. It rocks.

dont listen to S2, he dont know crap..... [paranoid]

lol. just kidding man.

if you want a chip, check out the superchip. you can get it through Focus Sport. yeah, the diablo does suck, from what i have heard, the superchip blows it out of the water. the chip will definatly make a much bigger differance on an ATX, but on the SPI, there is still quite a bit of good to be done on an MTX. I know it removes the governor, so no more 108 top speed. i also know it is possible to reprogram the shift light to come on when you want it to. it also does help a little with HP and Tourque (though dont expect a miracle) you will want to talk to the SPIers actually running the chip. i havent heard anything about it since it first came out. i have been in a black hole of sorts.

Hey Urn, where ya been? Haven't seen you on here in forever!

hahah, Merry Christmas to you too.....

been in USAF basic... now at tech school with very little computer access. [:(] o-well.

First off, find your code. It's on one of three places:
1) The ECU itself. This is a test. If you don't know where the ECU is then you don't need to be messing with a chip
2) Passenger doorframe by the hinges
3) Hood support if your car has been reflashed or updated to a new code. It won't be there if the service tech. didn't follow through -OR- your car has its original code.

Your code will be made up of four letters and numbers in this succession: letter, #,#, letter. For instance, my code is FVV8.

Now if you have an FVV series code, you need to PM me and I'll do you a favor. I have a Diablo chip that has a few tweaks in it you can have. Yes, the Diablo sucks compared to the SCT (Oh yes, the SCT Raptor package with datalogger is available for the SPI now. I just have to get it and test it out first), but the price is good. By price I mean nada, gilch, freebie. It is based off the LFQ series ZETEC program and it runs out nicely.

I missed you URN. You're my favorite wingnut!! Before you flame away, wingnut, I am a child of a wingnut myself and was on many a SAC* base back in the day. My Dad shit when I joined the Army. Then he shit bricks when I went Airborne. He asked me what I jumped out of, and i said C-130's. He just rolled his eyes. He was a prop. mechanic on C-130's. ETS'd as a Tech. Sergeant, I believe.

Sorry to hijack...Back to your regular programming........






SAC= Strategic Air Command., meaning nukes and B-52's

never saw the point of jumping out of a perfectly good airplane.... [:p]

j/k

anyways, what is this SCT Raptor?

The latest SCT technology with datalogger capability. I think it's called the Raptor. Names MAY have changed since development started. it is now available for us. Sadly, I have decided to hang up my wrench on any further SPI projects. The turbo is off and being sold as we speak. Back to NA and that's fine for me. I already have a turbo car that is wicked fast.
