Default Crome ECU Tuning

Is getting Crome worth it? Is it just as good as Hondata S300? What is the price to get Crome?

fuels around here are blended with 10% ethanol.. i want to have it tune so that i can squeeze more from the ethanol blended gasoline, raise the rev limit and check and modify my A/F ratio...

what do you think???

emulator , hulog cable, (i recommend crome pro) your ecu must be obd1 and it must not have the oem chip in it. there's more to it then that but it's only worth it if you have a real build. also a vx ecu isn't chippable it will have problems

^^^ what internals do you have to demand or withstand higher redline/limiter?
What mods do you have to demand a/f tuning?

The only reason one would tune/chip a stock or slightly modded engine would be for launch control in my opinion. And even then if you don't know how to do it. dont do it

there isn't a point to a higher rev limit unless your making power there, but rule of thumb is build the bottom end then the top end. don't spin 9,000 rpm's unless your rod bolts and valve springs are strong enough and so on

What mods do i have to demand a/f tuning? im boosted a lot has been changed
