Don't think there are chips for R33 RB25DET ECU.

Give me about a week or two and i can hook you up. Theres a typhoon comin

If most aftermarket chips cost a few hundreds $$, then why not getting a full PowerFC computer for around $1k delivered??

[paulr33]

get a power fc and hand controller from nengun, save the hassles and bullshit

also you can be putting your engine at a big risk if the ecu isnt truned properly and you run too lean or dentonate. best to get a full ecu and have it tuned properly

my thoughts

Good points. A mail order chip isnt the best way to get performance. Its easy to expand the maps and take off the limiters or change them around, but tuning is another matter. Of course, you could buy the FC for $1500 and still jack it up just as much as a $15 "universal" chip would. If the tuner doesnt know what they're doing, then they dont know what they're doing. No high tech ECU will save a bad tuner

Last time I looked nengun was offering brand new PFC $950 delivered to your door, or +/-$1400 PFC+H/C delivered. Hope the bargain is still on. Used PFC would definitely be much much less than that.

A few years ago a mail order chip seems to be a good bargain when PFC were over $2000, but now it seems not worth it. Either get a PFC or a Wolf EMS for roughly the same price between $1.3-1.4k.
