I think it's just a computer (ECU) upgrade, like a superchip

I was going to say the EXACT same thing as you Ramius. They have been there forever and NO-ONE ever talks about them. Anyone know?

It does not work. I have one. I bought it from Turbomax, now I know why he had a hard time selling it. There are three mode: sport, normal, and traction. I didn't feel any difference at all in sport. I do have the VB upgrade, so I'm not sure if that's why I couldn't feel any difference. I still have it. If any of you want it and maybe don't have the VB upgrade, email me and make me an offer.

Ha-ha, you feel about that as I do about my G-Force. But you want my G-Force and I want your auto Ecu. Perhaps we can make a trade later on. I do want to wait to see if an SC program comes out though. I'll keep in touch cuma.

Which one do you have? Cattman or Stillen?

It's actually made by JWT but Cattman and Stillen sell it. I bought used from Turbomax I don't know where he got it from.

JDM maximas have this, power, normal and snow mode. very similar to the 3rd gen tranny switch. power shifts at higher rpm and sooner under load when kicking down, normal is just that, snow locks out 1st gear to try to prevent wheel spin.
