Rsjvr6 1 Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 Hi guysAs money is tight Im working on a real budget to get some extra horses from my VR6. So far I have an induction kit, and will be purchasing a second hand SS exhaust soon. Ideally id like to put a cam on my car but as previously stated funds are alittle tight. I have come across a tuning company on the internet called powerchips who are based in the Czech Republic who are selling a pre programmed chip for £50. It states on the add that the chip works on a standard car. Has anyone ever heard of this company? And for cheapish reliable chip upgrades is there anyone you can recommend.

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 probably a cheap copy of this company: http://www.mongooseexhausts.com/powerchips/ Link to post Share on other sites

p0u1 14 Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 send him a email to see wether he will take it back if you see no diffrence, surly its just a copy of someones dynoed vr6 thats been modifyed then the chips just been sold as a standered upgrade, so i would think you would see some gain but not the same gain as if you were to take your car somewhere to get it tuned on a dyno Link to post Share on other sites
Rsjvr6 1 Posted November 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 getting it tuned on a dyno seems to be the sensible option. I have sent an email to them so I am interested in the response. I will post the response on the forum Link to post Share on other sites

Earwig 89 Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 You get what you pay for at the end of the day. IMO it's best to save for a little longer to get something a little better.The VR6 is pretty expensive to get more power from as many here will tell ya ;-)Mark. Link to post Share on other sites
