Hey guys, just got a Unichip installed today to fix my car's fuel consumption and idling problems. When I picked it up I was quite suprised to find that it had pulled 143.4kW on the dyno! I'm wrapped. The Unichip added about 10kW. And so it should for the price! Not to mention the car idles fine and will not run rich anymore. Here's the dyno printout.
Since then I've added MPI, 5 speed, Wade cam, SVO head, extractors and a pod filter. I'm yet to test out whether I can actually feel a difference yet cause I've only driven the car home in peak hour. Gonna take it for a run later All I want to do now is change the bloody 2.77 diff! The mechanics even wrote in the vehicle report - "PLEASE NOTE: Vehicle requires a diff ratio change"...
Doug, that's bloody awesome man! Can't wait to see your car in action once you get a new diff. All that hard work is starting to pay off for you, it's great to see. :thup:
thanks for all the comments guys. Well I've decided to max out the credit card. I did some ringing around yesterday for diffs and I've got the car booked in on Saturday morning to get a 3.23 LSD put in. $250 for the diff, $150 for labour. Bit pricy for labour considering a few people have offered to help fit it but oh well...
Should be a good 'in the mean time' diff cause I really wanted 3.9's or even 4.11's but to get a LSD diff supplied and built up to that spec would have cost about $1300. I'll see how it goes with the 3.23 first.
I got me a chip tourque chip with me cam. I ran the cam without the chip for a few days then i put the chip in.Whoooa, made a hell difference! But you will find it gets better the more k's you put on it. It will take a good 2000-3000k's for the com to full learn the chip.
