Default chipped ecu?

there is a uberdata chipped p28 obd 1 ecu for sale on one of my local sites i go to. i have a mostly stock d16z6 with intake and exhaust. what i am asking is- is this worth buying? will it help me get anymore power. i know it will work when i do the swap i plan on, but with this stock engine, just want to know if itll help. also, is 100 dollars good?

100 dollars is great, for that price I'd get it just to have later one when you can make more power through tuning and tuning is a necessity.

how much are you paying for just the chipping? i have a p28 in the car now, that will probably come out soon if you want it. if you have any bseries parts i might trade you some cash and that for those.
lowes? yeah did last weekend but not this weekend, been drunk the past three nights-wedding rehearsal dinner friday night, wedding saturday, birthday today. keeping having to backspace to get my words rights. hit me up sometime 3191548 if you have anything you wanna trade or whatever. later mcgee

It prolly won't make any extra power without tuning, and it;ll work with ls/vtec, just tune it properly.

The features are always neat though.

You can sell a stock p28 for 100 bucks, I have, so how is buying one for that a rip off?

ok bro's

the chipped part takes serisdouly a dollar, u got ripped for that ecu

o and uberdata crome all that is freeware

its not that hard, u have the possiblity to make more power, own a dyno?


do not bolt that comp into ur stock motor u will f something up tune it first


http://www.tunewithcrome.com

download it tune ur car with it </TD></TR></TABLE>

more power? isnt that the point to doing mods-along with reliability?
find a place where you can get a p28 uberdata chipped for a dollar and i will give you my soul
do YOU own a dyno? how did you tune yours? i mean really who individually owns a dyno, VERY FEW people. but i can get one delivered to my house for $60, and 100/day usage to tune it myself. 160-260 to completey tune my car? not bad
and if it is all just add ons, what will it mess up?

u'll get like 3hp out of it and it'll prolly run rich w/ ur stock motor, but once it's tuned and such w/ the LS motor, you should definately feel a diff nice buy, u usually can't even pick up a virgin P28 for that..
