Yeah my Legacy has one of their chips. 186kw (250hp) at the wheels when it last hit the dyno.

i see they only go up to my96, is there much difference between this and an my99?

ECU wise?... Comparing them is like comparing a Strawberry to a Playstation 3.

im just curious more than anything as i have never used one but the people that have these 'chips', what were your dyno runs like? (if any) and was everything as it should be?

i've never been a fan of 'chips' as most of them are not done specifically for your car/mods and on a dyno like a retune should be done. but i see it can be an easy fix to getting bigger injectors and so to work.

maybe someone else can be a little more informative :P

They are tuned for what you have.

My mate here has a vf22 and was planning on doing yellow tops with parallel setup but at the time he got the chip the fuel wasnt done. Nick tuned it for the yellow top s anyway. He had to send his ecu up but it came back, he put it in and goes awesome!

It was running ok with the old injectors but runs really really well now with the yellows. I was impressed. It gave the car a good wake up!

cool good info, i knew they tuned to run the injectors you want and all, but i was thinking are you not just getting a generic type tune for the parts you have installed with these chips? as in its not specific for your car, just the model in general?

cheap way of been able to upgrade injectors though i guess.

oh and im in no way looking at getting one, i already have a link. im just on holiday and bored lol.

It was 186kw, not 184. Stop selling me short! :-P

Yeah they are a generic chip. I had det issues. From what I can figure out its my fault, not the chips. I was running more boost than the MAP sensor could read. I've since turned the boost down to 16psi. The det has gone and the car pulls real well. For the price of them i would recommend a chip to someone looking for a few more ponies. They seem to hold their resale value too.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
