Hey guys, i'm curious if the unichip upgrade is worth the money...I've read a few threads from last year that were no very obliging to the upgrade....Any comments??

 

I'm getting my Unichip installed and tuned at the end of the month. I'll let you guys know the results, including dyno before and after.

 

4DrSkyline, did you get the Unichip installed? Can you share the results and benefits of the Unichip? Thanks.

 

I was supposed to have it tuned at the beginning of the month, but the local shop I got to has been swamped. I'm tenatively scheduled for the end of the month. If they have time early, then they'll fit me in. We're also looking at setting up two tunes, 91 octane for daily use, and 100 octane for track days.

 

Thanks, please keep us posted.

 

I don't have time to go into details, but I gained 21RWHP with the tuning of the UniChip on my 2005 5AT sedan. My tuner is convinced we can squeeze some more out of it, as I had a leak from my headers, and a faulty cat.

The UniChip is the single most effective mod I've done to my car, because it tied everything else together and really brought my car into a whole new performance spectrum. It has so much pull now from the midrange and holds on till fuel cutoff- now I need to raise my rev limiter to take advantage of this newfound power...

Here are the mods that I have:

• TopSpeed Headers
• Crawford Cats
• MD 5/16" Copper ISO Thermal Spacer
• MD MREV2
• Stillen True-Dual Exhaust
• Weapon *R 3.5" Intake
• Gordgee 10-wire 5AT grounding kit

I expect double the gains when I have my cams installed.

 

What was your final hp & torque numbers. You're at a stage I expect be at very soon.
1. What cams are you going with?
2. Who is your tuner?
3. What was the cost of the Unichip and tuning if you don't mind stating?

 

Good stuff, Boris . . . Hey, did you find what it was that you were looking for the other day?

 

Boris, thanks for the write-up. What was your A/F ratio after your tune? I have similar components on my G, but I have a Crawford Plenum instead of the MD spacer. I am considering the MREV2, but I am concerned about lean AFR. Thanks again.

 

I'm waiting on that information- I'll let you know as soon as I know.

 

You have PM.

 

Yeah, thanks. I was looking all over the engine bay, then started searching in the dash under the steering wheel.

 

Very nice numbers, Boris! Now I want my car tuned even more! Can you post the dyno printout for me?

 

Do you have to get it re-tuned once you get the cams installed?

 

Hey Vodkarocket, I like those numbers. From some other threads I read i've been a little skeptical about this mod. may I ask who does your work?? I'm out here in San Jose. The mods i will have if I go with the chip are JWT popcharger(which is installed) and the Intimidator exhaust...Thnaks, Markiev
