Talking Ready to order Powerchip.
OK, I'll be the ginnea pig, I will order the Gold93 chip which they claim will add 24 HP at the crank, that should bring me to 325 HP. I'll keep you guys posted.
Once evosport have their W208 headers ready, they can add another 13 HP at the wheel, like 20 at the crank, which should bring me over 340 HP.
I will dyno it, and post results.

Have you send your ECU yet? When do you get it back?

Ben put the brakes on me. He says to wait a month, cause by then, they will have Powerchips cars dyno tested at evosport.

I guess by then, I'll do the primary headers from evosport, together with the chip.

I just couldn't wait any longer:p (installed approx. 1 month ago)
They have contacted me on several occasions...just wondering If I am satisfied w/their product...or maybe because I hinted I was interested in chipping my other cars.

I like the idea that they don't charge your credit card until the 14 day guarantee has elapse.
