Why the hell can't we get a "chip" for our cars?

I don't know what the stats are on the maxima..but ofcourse the Gti smoked you.

AWW - 2000, 2001 engines..wiht chip goes to about 205 hp, 245 torque.

AWP - 2002 engine gives a little more then above.

So ofcourse a chipped gti smoked you.

Also my 1.8T 2002 Jetta can beat out any of the maximas on this forum..chipped..exhaust..intaked..whatever..I'll still beat you..any takers?

How come Craig Mack hasn't replied to this thread yet?

Hm i wouldn't doubt it... with a simple chip, those things fly. The one i saw was pretty light weight looking and older model.

also someone wrote up there. Why isnt there a chip for a Maxima??? I know the stock Maxima does not come with a turbo. But I'm sure there must be a bolt on kit for them.

Also heres some more info.
Upsolute gives a GTI 1.8T up to 14 lbs..boost
Giac/APR give about that (a little higher)

Wow you are in the 12's in the 1/4 already? That's what some of the more modded maximas are running.

Okay, Im comming from a VW scene I was all about VW and you dont have to have a turbo to have a chip.

Also, try this vid. http://forums.clubsi.com/showflat.ph...ts&Main=899223
or shorcut http://home.attbi.com/~jmrecker/gtimax.mpg and you will see a Max walking a 1.8t. Are you talking stock VS stock? I am also suprised nobody mentions VR6. You don't have to have to do much with those to make them fast it could have been just that. I had a chip in my lil 2.slow and it added 13-15hp, 8-10tq, removed the rev limiter, speed governor, and adjusted the fuel curve. All that for $135, gotta love it. But my VW kept breaking down and that is why I bought the Max.

hey guys... just surfing the net... and seen a post in the vwvortex bout you site just thought i would check it out... just some words or experiences...

1.8t:

chip (adds anywhere from 30-60 hp) and 40-60 tq...

that one post of the chip giving the guy 230 hp is a lie... the apr stage 3 kit for the 1.8t gives 290 hp (this is with a t3/t4) i doubt that the ko3 with just a chip will be able to output 230... he must have an ams chip (those claims are bogus)...

secondly... i do have a chip... actually chips...

1.1bar good for low 14's
1.3bar good for high 13's

with my mods:

intake cai, exhaust, hks bov, chips...

my car has done 155 on the freeway took me 23-27 seconds to hit that speed...

cars with the DOWNPIPE... have a quicker spool up than i do... this means they pick up speed faster...
in conjunction to the dp some run a test pipe... this gives the car straight air from the turbo to the tip of the exhaust...

with all of these mods i believe someone hit low 13's...

yes the power is astounding with a chip and some minor mods... but i raced a supercharged maxima... and had my *** handed to me... see you around...

VWvortex.com LOL NICE. Good to see you in here. I had that sticker on my window a week ago before I bought this Max. My screenname is Gazabomb on there and Lukedub is my roommate. Anyhow, good to see a vortex member.

I used to walk all over my friend's 2k2 1.8T Jetta, but eversince he got the chip, and I got the rims I'm no competition for him. I'm waiting for my y-pipe now, but I think 2k2 Max with some mods, should be able to hold no problem.

what do you run in the 1/4 ? 10s? 9s? 8s? 6s? 5s? 4s? 3s? 2s? 1? less than 1?

i wouldn't be surprised in the least if he went back in time.
