$$$ hopefully
 
im no expert, but from what i understand the unichip comes with pre-programmed maps, in in order to customize those maps for your car (which is likly different than everobody elses) you have to take it to a certain place that is certified. the difference is the product being offered here is supposed to be controlled and changed by the user. i believe he said it will come with maps for us that are noobs when it comes to tuning, but the good thing is that we can have complete control over our a/f ratios which seem so out-of whack in msps. but i may be wrong

#1 the UniChip allows you to alter the ignition timing. DSMConvert has said that this option MAY be avaliable in the future.

#2 The UniChip can only be re-mappd/tuned by a certified UniChip tuner

#3 Hopefully price. With the absence of timing control this shouldn't cost an arm and a leg. At least I hope not, since this is just an AFC.

Anyone worried about an AFC being too user controlled probably should not be modifing their cars. Especially since you don't have to worry about adjusting timing! It's just up or down, and make sure you don't run too lean.
 
DMS told me he started this cause the MSP has a crappy ecu. And that the current ones on the market he felt cost WAY too much for the gains they provided, so he made this :). Car is on dyno now...can't wait lol.
 
pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you guys rock. If this setup is less than 500, I'll have enough to get a ghl downpipe with my fun money.

So does that mean were gonna see some results tonight?
 
I'm very interested in this too, although I really feel timing issues should be addressed once you start upping the boost. I can't wait to see the adjustments made on the dyno.
 
From what I sense, and from the stuff that DSM has put out, it will be less than $500, maybe closer to the $300 range. He's all about value.
 
Sorry guys no pics but I have the car back!!! This is for you DSM (rockon)

DSM should be sent the info I have from the company soon but the results are really good. In terms of dyno numbers the A/F ratio is very nice and very smooth. It is rediculous to see how the car was setup stock.

The Dyno sheet that will be posted soon has 4 runs. My car stock, With new maps, new maps @ 8 psi, new ,maps @ 10 psi. The sheet is not in front of me but the stock numbers were like 151 hp and 153 lb. The top run added 27 hp at the wheels and 49 lbs or torque. Leaving it at like 178hp and 202lb.

The drivability is AMAZING on this baby. There is no more stuttering, bogging down, bucking, anything like that. I thought a lot of the harshness in the low gears was from the engine mounts but heck no. Most of it was in the nasty ass Mazda Tuning. The car feels butter smooth to drive and makes everything feel smooth and easy. Up/Downshifting is GREATLY improved because the car no longer dips down into that nasty rich to lean change. Now when I shift from 1-2 the car just powers through it. Instead of being pulled into your chain, buck, then pulled into chair again it is nice and smooth. And I mean SMOOTH. I practiced shifting a lot and no matter how good/fast I was it would buck atleast a little, well not anymore.

Power delivery is very smooth too. You can cruise around just as before (with added smoothness of course) and as soon as you get into the turbo range BAM this thing pulls like a mofo. I mean 60 mph comes faster than I imagined lol. I haven't taken it from a dig yet but I bet that 200+ lb feet is gonna be fun :).

I'll answer whatever questions you guys have about this as they come cause I can't think of anything else right now. The first time I got into 4.5k rpm i had an obscene grim on my face and couldn't stop giggling for a few minutes lol.

So long story short I am truly amazed at this product. It is really really really really good. Did I mention it was good? DSM has made something amazing and I hope you allgo and pic it up. Once you see the dyno you guys will see how nice the curves are.

Oh also the dyno was done at like 80* or something like that so it wasn't super cold or anything. Also the 27hp gain (along with the torque graph) is gained throughout the entire RPM range. It's not like some mods that get all their hp gain at the very high rpm's. Once they bump the tuning and psi the entire graph looks exactly the same, just bumps it up 20+ hp :).

Super amazed! Blown away by results! Yippie! I'll try to get pics/post dyno #'s this weekend.

Lets the questions roll.
 
Also I'd like to add that the turbo spools up much faster and sooner, suprisingly sooner. I think before if I got off the throttle the turkey would comealive around 3.5k or so. Now when i let off at like 2.5k there is a half asleep barely alive turkey there, but it shows its starting to spool up. I guess the fixed ratios and stuff feed the turbo the exhaust it needs faster.

Drove it a lot more and still suprised at how fun it is to drive. Drivability is greatly improved AND if I gun it I can get the tires totally loose in 2nd. YES! (drive)
 
Oh and I'm home now the numbers were in fact 151hp/153lb start and 177hp/202lbs @ 10 psi.
 
what were the stock boost numbers with the tune, I am assuming close to the same only smoother power curve?

Hopefully I can get it scanned and then everyone will see it but basically yeah. It is a lot smoother and the peak HP was like 3 or so more but you gain a few chunks throughout the powerband. There are some parts where the stock dyno would drop a few HP for no reason, and they fix that.
 
this product sounds awesome. i cant wait to see the dyno graphs on here and find out the price.
