I've heard that Autothurity has a ECU upgrade for the Maximas. What about the 99's? Anyone have it or had any experience with it? How much was it? Did you notice any big gains?

Here's the latest news->

I need a spare ECU from a cali-spec 99. Autothority needs to ship the ECU to Japan for further development. They need to develop a piggyback socket to fit their chip. If they do, I believe the socket will work for 97-99 and maybe 2K+. The ECU is around $150 from junkyards out in cali. The junkyards doesn't ship or take CC. Basically someone from Cali needs to buy and ship it to me. I would have to dish out $150 for it. If any 1997-1999 owners out there want to chip in, I'll get the ball rolling again. My funds and time have been devoted to my nitrous setup lately.
