Ecu chip rechip. Is it neccesary ?

[freeman1314]

Just want to know more about changing ECU chip before changing.
I know there's alot of chips to choose from and most have different basemap from stock and might remove rev cut and changine vtec engage point and timing.
But some says some chip which changes your vtec engage point will actually do more harm to your engine rather than increasing it's power?
Can sifus giv advice and more info about changing chip ?

to me rechip is not that good but is good for budget playing...coz those map is fix and we can't retune it.different engine different setup so is not that good lor..better get a hondata or other piggyback. my uncle b16 with toda A cam use FEEL's rechip feel alot better then stock but there is still alot of tuning can be done to unleash the engine max output..

some chip engage vtec at 4800 and some at 5600...if we engage vtec too early it will let our engine breath in too much air at that moment..causing lag on it..we can see from dyno graph if we engage it too low the torque and hp will drop instead of going up...

got cash...piggybacks...got budget...rechips...for rechips better consult users/tuners as it depends on your current mods...

well dat 'some' is those who regret rechip their ecu :P
but i think , for fun ok la for remove speed cut , rev cut watsoever.
if u want a bit serious like retune the vtec timing and all, get a proper ecu. done .

get a tuned chip... almost close to hondata features... tuned chip n copy chip is different.

Can i use rechipid ecu and vafc togather? I recently just convert my tranny to manual and change to spoon rechiped p2t ecu but will it work well with vafc or i have to take out the vafc? My car still havent sent for tuning.

can ah...vafc to setup the air fuel lor...

I don't really understand tuned chip and copy chip. Copy chips are immitation right? What about tuned chip ?

Any comment about this ecu compare to obd1 rechipped?

ur is spoon ecu ma..

 

[deathzone]

ur is spoon ecu ma..

That day i went to my mec place he suggest me to use mugen obd1 rechipped he say will perform better then this spoon obd2 ecu. As far as i know hodata s300 is the best for obd1 not sure bout mugen. Any comment bro jin?
