hmmm
estimated la... before was 155whp. can't dyno bcoz keep fuel cut.

installed unichip + boost module + xtra injector. got 200+whp la. exact figure i shy to tell. but more than 50 horses was hell of an increase don't u think?

my price was 2k+ abit. i think u can get it about 2.5k or so... Tom also using unichip if i've not mistaken... but 1 thing la... unichip not many people can tune. that you have to put that in mind...

oh... as for torque... circa 400Nm... lost my dyno charts.. lol

Huh!! that is impressive!!! but for turbo application definately can get very radical power output.
I'm just using N/A engine.
4AGE 20V ....if can get 10% -15% enough already.

yah yah
non-turbo is cheaper. coz the turbo module cost about 600 or so...
can la.... vis auto can tune... is whether they got the heart to or not... now adays... all first priority also money... sian la... thats why sometime fedup with workshops.

the main tuners in vis are ah chew and ah weng... ah chew being the partner of visauto and more experience in tuning. ah weng is damn frenly, nice guy and tuning is ok. only got once he tuned too rich and my car started bogging. aiyah... its either him or my car... so i duno. old car lotsa prob also la.... :P

possible to install Unichip and tune for better FC? assuming if the stock ECU mapping is the best..then there's nothing left to tune, is that correct?

Normaly unichip is good for the new car and just piggy back,easy to tune if u know the basic tuning.Unichips very popular for the continental car.Now unichips try run it for JDM cars.For me to get 15 to 30% horsepower from the unichips it good budget.
U can contack MR Lim 019 330 9426 he is friendly guy from RS Impressive Motorworks.(Unichip Dealer in KL)He have a good tunner to tune your unichip and microtech also.Have a Destek Dyno facility.

Personal experience, dont go for Unichip. Like someone mention, currently Unichip can only be tune by VisAuto and another tuner in KL (if it still operate). This is already bad enough. If they are not able to tune your car, you have no other ppl to turn to. This is what I had experience before. Another factor to consider is, if you offended them in someway or another (IF and only IF) then you are doom. I guess I dont need to spell it out what will happen next :p

No doubt the functions are very impresive. But, if they sell the tuning kit, then is ok. Atleast you can ask other tuner to tune. But from the last I know they dont sell the tuning kit anymore (they use to sell it last time).

Perhaps you can go for e-manage or microtech LT2(piggyback) or LT4(standalone ECU) :p

Just my 2cent advice....

Cant agree fully with the previous poster on the fact that if you get on bad terms with them then your investment is doomed. Thats almost like saying you mess up with your fiancee and future mother inlaw then your doomed. Well maybe your doomed but you'll still marry her, regardless. :) :) :)

So... live with it. :) :)

I just wanted to add about Mr Lim of RS impressive. Unfortunately, he did not tune my car. Long story etc etc, but I wanted to highlight the following,
speaks english
Friendly cheerful
Gives good explanations
willing to discuss in details
Very up front - Tells me straight on my face, he aint going to tune my car... not worth my money.

So Just a small word from someone who hwas yet to use his services, but would have willing paid for, had he allowed me to do it. kekekekek. Just in case anyone is dying to know. Mr lim says my auto box is going to implode if I do anything more to the engine without getting something like a manual gear box. kekekeke.

CCL - thanks for your advice to visit this place some time ago. If you can please ask Mr LIm if he wants to reconsider my kembara. He should know who I am. :) :)

Just another advice, try not to get a piggyback which has limited tuner to tune it. Further more they don't sell the tuning kit which is a big big no no..... :p But I really hope they do sell the tuning kit. If not you will have to stick to them like a drug addict.

hahahahah
yeah he told me a kembara went :P
i mean if u're sure the gbox can take it... by all means la
but if crack krang krang.... i tak tau la... hehehe


jasonlel,
your point is relatively valid. i've had some bad instances with the tuner. but luckily i have my mech mr lim as a go between. so i just gave him the car and asked him to get it tuned properly. i should be getting it retuned soon due to some upgrades... probably will try to find another tuner to do it or sumthin... there are lotsa competent tuners out there... just that the tuning port aren't sold freely.
