Re: LS1 Jet Performance Chip?? Speak for yourself I have it and I raced a buddy of mine with it and without and with identical launches, no wheel spin games there was a 3 car lenght difference with it to without. So to answer your question for the little money it is it is an awesome bang for the buck.
Re: LS1 Jet Performance Chip?? bascially it sucks!! Ran faster without the chip than i did with it. Yes I tested it in almost the exact same conditions
I think HP TV dynoed one on there show and picked up 1hp.. not bad for 300 bucks huh??? HAHAHAHAAA
save the money and spend it elsewhere! 300 for a chip?? or 550-600 for edit where you can do what 10000 chips do <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
all the chip does it make you think your faster by putting it in

Re: LS1 Jet Performance Chip?? crazyfarmer,
I was told I would need the chip when I change my rearend gears from stock to 3.73:1 so I can program my speedometer.Is there another way I can correct the speedometer without buying the chip?
Thank you.

Re: LS1 Jet Performance Chip?? You guys have to look at the way those chips work. It's a one solution for all. I'm guessing that all it does it increase timing and lean out the car a bit. It's assuming we're running rich, as most factory cars do. And adding a little timing usually helps.
But. If you're already running lean it will hurt you big time. Same for the timing. Adding timing on a car that already has 27-28 might not help much and if it adds like 4 deg and you're end up at 31, it might hurt performance and add KR.
MAFT does the same thing, but much better as you can make a custom tune so to say.
I really felt a difference with MAFT. My WOT timing was at stinkin 21 deg. Add 4 to that and car is flying. I'll probably add more later. I'm running 10% rich base and 2% lean WOT. So my mixture was a little off.
Oh yeah, you LS1 guys can't buy the MAFT+ so you'll have to buy the MAFT and Timing Ticker seperately.
