Lancer ECU upgrade



Anyone here have some experience with Powerchips "Gold" chip for Lancer 1.8. The testimonials look good, but does anyone have a quartermile comparison or dyno comparison, before and after???????



I liked the signature "Lancer is the answer".......so right!!

Hey Evoposer trying to have a go at me??? Anyway back to topic, I have heard a little about these chips some good some bad. I would also like to hear some more information. I agree the testimonies on the website make the product sound fantastic. But what I have heard on a whole has been good about this product.

where can I find this? I've never seen ECU upgrades for the Lancer, other then a Unichip or other piggyback/ full replacement computer. A chip (less then a G) would be good.

I have the powerchip gold in my Lancer.
Its good, all depends on how far you want to take your car in mods. Im selling mine pretty soon, im already streaching its limits!
It is a good chip, better responce, better fuel mielage, higher rev range and so on.
I would recomend it

Question Powerchip



Hey Gav

I wouldn't mind to purchase the chip of you if you could still put your original back in, or do you exchange the original with them as part of the original deal. Talk to me if you are able to sell it.

Cheers

You keep your original chip in your car, it's only a piggyback chip.
