If you want an extra 10-15hp and lb/ft then buy it.

it depends on how important having a faster car is to you. an ecu upgrade can be pretty hard on the wallet. if you can catch a technosquare group deal your looking at 380 dollars !
my maxima just blast off at around 3500 rpms and I noticed about a .2 off my 1/4 mile times with the upgraded ecu.

i launch a 2500 rpms. you will have to unless you buy another one to send in. I know TS will have it back to you in about a week counting the time it takes for you to ship it over. jwt will take much longer to get the ecu back.

You have to mail in your ecu whether you go with JWT or TS. However with TS I sent mine in and it was Fedex'd back the same day. That's service!
It gives about the same gains as a y-pipe, but over a slightly larger rpm band. I notice the added power at around 3000rpm onwards. One thing to note is if you go this route you can't go nitrous or you'll very likely blow your engine.

You will definently be happy with the ts ecu I had mine for about a month and I'm very happy with it. If you could afford $390 then go for it!! I paid a little more because I wanted next day shipping but that's just me!! Best mod..

You will be happier with an upgraded ecu. Choosing the right one will probably tear you apart. JWT has the rev-limiter but TS has a cheaper price. Do some research and choose which one would be best for you.
