Calling Unichip Users

How would it make any serious difference in that scenario...

I am sorry, but I am not entirely sure what you are asking. Would you please rephrase your question if I do not answer it clearly below?

If you are asking how a boost setup with peak pressure of 12-13 PSI that occurs for just a few seconds and bleeds to 10 PSI leads to better performance than boost that goes to 10 PSI and holds, then I believe that post #74 by BoOsTiN with the email pasted in from the Unichip technician provides a nice answer.

You actually mean Unichip, right? haha... I have never seen anyone talk about it like that (that much support). Thank you for your post....

I keep forgetting to check my fuel economy again... (I dread finding out the amount I spend on fuel). On the original tune Unichip did, I gained around 5mpg. This was before they increased boost to the amount they did (it was only like 2psi over stock at that point).


Would you be interested in the other functions these systems can do, but are not currently offered? As I said before... .there's the possibility of converting to MAP sensor, dual stage rev limit, aux switch control....

You are welcome. I am not interested in the other such functions that Unichip can control. At present, I am very happy with my car, the exception being the tire roar and impact harshness of the RE040's.
 
Josh Murray helped me when I was going through some problems with my UniChip. It was frustrating, but he was very good.

The car runs real smooth now and with the boost switch on, it pulls hard.

I remember reading that we have a small wastegate, but has anyone considered a bigger wastegate to avoid the problem?
 
our turbo uses an internal wastegate so i do not think you can just stick a bigger one in there.
 
Ok so has anyone gotten theirs custom tuned yet? Is there a list anywhere or some other way to find out if there's one nearby?
 
wow, I am floored by the quality info on this thread but I have a ?. what comes with this system? is it just switches to go from the different maps or does it have a computer interface like apex'i products?

No just 3 switches

ECU Switch (Clear any CELs, Unlikely)
Boost Switch (Stock Boost or 10PSI)
Map Switch ( Timing Maps)

There are only two retail stores that sell this specific unit. It cannot be purchased from just any Unichip seller.
