lets go guys!!!

Don't miss out on this one. If you don't get one now, you won't be able to get one, so go ahead and do it. Lets have a good showing so the 97+ guys have a chance too. You will regret this!!

Yes you can do this and still get a SC

You will have to get UPRD to reprogram the ECU to get maximum benefits out of your car though. You can talk to Robert at UPRD about your individual applications and he will assist you further. However, please only serious buyers contact him because he is a busy man.

Price???

I figured it was over by now. I might want to jump on this one.

Few questions tho:
HP gained to the wheels? What's the current price? When will they be shipped? Who do I call?

Thanks.

the max numbers are not as impressive

as the mid-rpm gains. I believe the top end gains were 10 hp at the wheels, but in the midrange it jumped to over 19 hp. Those are really good numbers. If we get 30 people, it will be $425, which is a great deal.

Sorry man wish you could be in but you have a 99, and now help for 98-00 right now.

Doug I believe Cheston is said that if you get the 96 O2 sensor their isn't a problem, and I think he is still working on another way to fix it. However, this question would be better answered by him.

Yeah, I think UPRD would make a killing if they had the upgrade for 98-01. Tell the 95-97 owners how lucky they are!!!

Last price I heard was $475 but we have more people now, so I guess we will find out next week, but hopefully that is steadily going down.

Did Loren bring in his car so they try to

program an ecu for an s/c? Not that I need it but would be interested in the results, hey, you never know.

When is this thing starting already?

This is my theory as to why it

it is taking so long for this thing to launch. UPRD is still trying to do some more testing on some things, such as SC, raising the idle, etc... Well, maybe they are trying, and then maybe they are just thinking about it, are maybe........ Oh-well, guess we will find out someday. Monday, I should know more.

just to let you guys in a little secret..

on the freeway today, a friend of mine with an SC auto lined up with me and we punched it at 40.

were were dead even up until the top of my 3rd gear (~80) before i shifted to 4th, and i were were pretty much dead even. (the SC had me by a nose, and this was before i shifted to 4th...) then we ran out of room...

this ECU, believe it or not, will work BEST for 95/96 owners. i'm just saying, that for the 97 owners, this ECU happens to work, and for me, it remapped the fuel at RPMs over 3.4k , and really made a significant difference..

the dyno numbers reflected aren't too hot for the 97, but for the 95/96, they are good. (nabil has yet to dyno, unfortunately, and the dynos that were done, are on the Clayton Dynometer, and thus deemed "lame" by the populus because "it's not a real dynojet".. blah blah blah. well.. i'll have more stuff to prove later, but this deal won't go anywhere unless people are serious about it. and i don't need any more "flakers" or people who want in, but dont want to be in until everyone is in, got that?

so. it's either you're IN on the Grp deal, or you're out. simple as that....

group deals are a PITA, but hey, i want us Maxima guys to have good stuff, and i've been working at this project since September of last year... this is really a good mod, and for those who think otherwise, then you go out and find a company that is willing to put down time/effort for an ECU...

if this ECU deal goes through, which i KNOW it will, UPRD will begin research on breaking the 97 ECU, 98 ECU, possibly the 99/2k ecus, so this my friends, is just the beginning...

That was the short answer and here is a long one that Cheston wrote before Christmas. He addresses your issue in about the last paragraph. Hope this helps...

"hi guys, i'll be on x mas break from 12/16-> 1/5/01.... meaning i can't get any more spare ecus until i get home from vacation..

we are still accepting orders for ecus, and we just need a few more people to hit our main goal of 25 people! So if you're still interested, and after you return all your lame xmas gifts for cash, then hit me up .

click on the link below in my sig, and it'll tell u all the UPRD ECU info.

as from the latest word with robert at uprd, the main programmer is on a business trip to the east coast this week and will be back next week.

if you have a 95/96 maxima and ready to experience what me, socal nabil, and emax95 have already felt with our ECU upgrades, then by all means, order now. you will be reimbursed the difference of the price now and the final group price of $425 when we do hit 25+ people...

i'm getting ecus for those with 97 maximas and those who wish to have a separate ecu, but i'm letting you know now that i might be pricey. my nissan supplier has told me there is a shortage of ecus and that might drive the price up a bit.. but no worries. i'll get enough for everyone.

ordering will go like: fedex ur ecu to uprd. they mod it. they fed ex it back. turn around should be only 2 days.

this mod will work for 95/96/97 maximas only. sorry 98/99/00/01 guys. for 97 maximas, a rear o2 sensor MIL might come up, but we're working on a solution for it...

price right now is like ~$475 + shipping (with 20 people COMMITTED, else it's like $500+. right now we have 18 committed.)

please no emails about "oh i'll get in when we get more people commit." it's more like commit now, or dont get in.. i'm not trying to sound harsh but that's why we cant hit the target of 25+ people. we need people that will commmit and say "yes. i want more power! yes! want to blow the doors off a 330 BMW ci! Yes i want average of 15 hp power gain in the midrange!"

ask emax95. ask nabil.

ask me. and i'll tell u its the best damn mod i've done for the car in terms of power.. the fuel mapping is supurb.. the car just takes off at 3800 rpms...

got an SC? no problem. custom tuning available for 95/96 SC'd maxs and we're looking to see if it'll work on a 97 SC with a 96 Ecu.... so. please. interested? for real? then order.

direct orders can be placed with ROBERT@UPRD.com
questions can be sent to me, CHEBOSTO@HOTMAIL.COM
read my link in my sig, then email ?s..

thanks for your inputs, happy holidays,

cheston"
