EFI Solutions or Custom Chip?

[98GTVortech]

Which do you guys think would be most effective? The Efi solution where they reflash your computer or to get a custom burned chip? Thanks for all the input.

dyno tune by Tim with his reflash , using the EFI solutions , the only way to do it .

I live in PA so considering that he is in georgia i probably won't be able too get there. Thanks though.

I would say that you can do more stuff with a chip but reflashing EEC will not void your warranty if you don't say anything because they can't really tell.

I started a thread of what a chip can do that ECU couldn't do and vice versa.. try doing a search.. good luck

No questions. Go the EFI Solutions route. The chip can't adjust the same number of parameters as the flash can.

I drove from VA , but if you dont wanna drive , call him and talk over to him whats going on with your car , you can send your ECM to him to reflash without him having the car , chances are he can dial it in better than any chip you will get .

I vote EFI solutions. Also you can't go wrong with Tim. But, if you feel uncomfortable with shipping your ecu off you can always go to Kauffman Motorsports in Dillsburg, Pa. I think thay are only about a 2 hour drive from philly, and they also use EFI solutions. They have a top notch shop and seem to really now there stuff as well.

if you're in Pa dont bother going to georgia...Kauffman Motorsports in dillsburg is an excellent place...do a search on their name here, you wont see one bad remark, dave really knows his stuff...they are efi solutions, and autologic.

Dave @ Kauffman is a great tuner...He uses the same software we use and does a great job.

Tim who else uses EFI solutions that you know of ? (For the guys too far away to make it to Georgia) and are paranoid of ECU shipping -

:OT: BTW- Tim I got everything else, but haven't seen my 3.2 pully yet

I think if it were my car I would drive it to Kaufmanns in PA and have it dyno tuned there , I dont think you will be disappointed at the results .

My understanding is to have it tuned w/o any liquid / ice in the box. Then when you add ice to it for the track you just get the added power benefit from the colder air charge (no different tune). However I believe if it's tuned w/ a chip you can get a flip switch on some w/ a second program that can have more timing in it for when you have ice in the box.

Thanks alot for all the feedback. I have bought products from tim and i wish i could make that drive but it's very time consuming. Kaufmann's i am goign to give them a try and i'll report my results within the month.

Thanks again
