Hi guys,

I just wanted to get some ideas on different chips for r32 gts-t's.

I am most likely going to get a dr drift one done in a month or so and I just wanted to hear from anyone if they noticed much of a difference in the overall running of the car.

At the moment I have 145rwkw's on 13psi, i got a cooler, xaust, pod, 044 pump...

With the new chip am i likely to gain any kw's?

What chip are out there to get and wat would be best?

thanks

Mark

Hi Mark, you local Chiptorque or Fueltronics dealer should be able to tune your car in real time and burn the chip especially for your mods. Off the shelf chip is never as good, because all cars are different.

SydneyKid: Excuse my ignorance, but when you say they'll "burn the chip"... do you mean they'll make a custom chip for your particular car (or atleast have the settings custom made for your car)?

Also: would you say it would be a wise idead to do mods like FMIC, POD, Zorst and any other little bits BEFORE getting this done? Or are they fully reprogrammable and it really doesn't matter? (obviously it'd be cheaper to tune the car once rather than 5 times...)...

How much would i be looking at for this? how much gains?... (i'm guessing the gains would simply be in having a better a/f ration etc?)...

kool... i really wouldn't have a clue what teh right a/f ratio is... just that the guy on the dyno day said i should have mine leveled off to about 11.6.... so yeah, that's all i was goin off... how much of that gain was in the chip and how much was in the extra boost do you think?...

160kw at the wheels just from a retune and remap?!?!?! that's an awesome gain (30rwkw)...  Or does that include FMIC, POD and Zorst?....

yeah basic stage 1 upgrade, good fmic, pod?, full 3" system remap for ecu and a good tuner!!

      I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though

      $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.

      Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.

      I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
