anybody know if there's ever going to be an ECU upgrade chip that's coming out for the 97+UP 4th gens? or am i just holding onto a non-existent reality? its just unfair that the 95-96's have but not 97 up. IMHO shed some light please on my cloudy reality.

 

cant u get it reprogrammed by jwt?

 

Nope.

The ECUs in the 97 and later cars are just harder to work with. Not impossible, but a lot harder than the earlier ones.

 

You can do what the 97+ SE-R/SE crowd did. Swap in a 95-96 ECU and make a 97+ to 95-96 harness convertor. Basically you would need a male plug from a 97+ ECU and rewire the pin outs to match the 95-96 ECU.

 

You can use a modded 96 ECU (JWT or G-Force), I know of a few guys that have done it. You may pull a check engine light though. The 97 won't realize the same gains as a 96 would, but there are definite gains, I've watched them dyno.

 

there are ECU's available at www.jetchip.com for 97 Max's

 

Except the JET chips dont actually make more power...

 

which ones do?

 

G-force and JWT, but those arent available for the 97...

 

do JWT ECUs' provide good power gains?
