IMO never buy a ebay chip. I have heard many horror stories about them. But its really up to you if you want to take that chance.

 

well do you think its safer to run that or waaaay rich like im running? whats the problems i can have with the ebay chip

 

Well the chip isn't burned to your motor so it would prob hurt it more then help it. also looking at what it does it will prob run just as rich as your ecu now. If i was you i would just go to the market place and see if someone is sellin a stock ecu.

 

Oxygen sensor - Eliminated. Fabulous! This chip isn't worth its' weight in scrap metal.

 

yeah.....do not buy an ebay chip! EVER!!

 

you are trusting someone else

each motor runs differant fuel and timing maps

the best use for a ebay chip is being reburned. note not all chips are reburnable

i spun a rod bearing when using a ebay mugen chip

 

 

Buy a stock ECU /thread

 

Check out phearable.net They actually know what's going on.

 

Okay well what do you guys think about this chip for my ecu? im thinking about having it made for me...but the problem is will it plug right into my ecu? will it already be burnt for my car? i wont have to get it tuned with this chil will i?

Bump anyone?

 

Getting warmer. You send them your ECU, they stocket it and chip it, and put a basemap on it. Installation wise, all you have to do is plug your ECU back in. Please note that this is a basemap, and will not be ideal for your setup. A basemap should serve as a crutch to get your car to a dyno and have it professionally tuned.

 

my friend got an ebay chip.
so far no problems. but i wouldnt get it.
dont cheap out or will might have to pay more later

 

well what if mine is socketed and ready to go cant i just plug it in when i get it?

 

Do you know how to solder a chip in? This isn't just plug-in and go stuff. It takes time, patience, skill and tools.

 

if the socket has already been soldered in then yea. just plug and play. but your going to need a tune

 

dont buy an ebay chip their junk ive ordered chipped ecus from phearable.net and ill stand by them anyday.

 

go with phearable.net they'll tune it to your mods with stock or turbo settings. set your vtec and i kinda liked the launch app. and just $10 more than the ebay crap. i paid 37 for mine i think.

 

i didnt think ppl still wanted the ebay chips...lol
dont be one of those ppl....buy a stoch ecu
