JET performance chip
Did you know JET performance has a recalibration chip out for the 1nz-fe? Obviously none of us believe the $20 ebay crap but this is JET we're talking about. It costs $315 so it's gotta be doing something.

sorry if repost but I don't recall anything other than ebay crap

really? thought jet was the better of the companies that made chips.
doesn't show this product on their website, but then again injen and dc aren't showing parts either on their websites... try calling the company
........
Jet V-Force Power Control Module for all Toyota's 90-02
http://www.jetchip.com/imports/vforce.cfm
The JET V-Force Power Control Modules (PCM) uses the same computer tuning technology found in JET's popular domestic tuning products. A 20Mhz RISC microprocessor optimizes the ignition spark advance and recalibrates the fuel map for optimum horsepower and acceleration.
Modified Ignition Curve
Recalibrated Air/Fuel Ratio for Maximum Performance
Improved 1/4 Mile E.T's
LED Read Out
On/Off Override Switch
Part #67009
$239.95
whooooooo wants to try? lol

I have two of there chips and have had experience with other products from them. I think they are a good company, located down the street from me. I had them do a carb for our 58 and they had good customer service and the carb was awesome.

On non turbo cars, here is a list of things generic chips can do:
1. raise the rev limit (dangerous and usually useless)
2. bump the ignition timing curve (dangerous and may require you to use high octane fuel)
3. lean out the air fuel tables (dangerous and may require you to use high octane fuel
4. on autos, change shift rpms/shift hardness/speed (often very useful)
Most chips do either nothing, or slightly bump up the timing and maybe lean our the air fuel mixture slightly.
This usually requires you to use higher octane fuel and can even still be dangerous, causing long term damage to your motor.
The benefit for this risk at best is typically very very small horsepower bumps. On our 100hp engine I would guess in the 2-3hp range..
I Don't reccomend this. ECU tuning is useful when you have SIGNIFICANT modifications and get a custom tune where someone puts a wideband O2 on your car and dials it in. But these generic chips are at best usually useless and often dangerous.

Ya, that's the reason I showed you guys. I always thought JET was like one of the best chip companies out there. Too bad there is NO info on something that costs SO much.

there are simply no wonders to be worked from computer tuning most modern cars, period. The ideal timing/fuel settings for gas mileage is pretty much the same as those for power.
On turbo cars, things get very different, since the ECU can usually raise the boost.

Well i think that its wonderful that we all have such wonderful and different opinions on ecu tuning and its practicallity and effectivness. I am not trying to question anyones logic or their reasons for making there decisions but, of those whom stated things such as "useless" and not a good idea generally have had experience import, euro, domestic, with performance chips.

Personally, and from experience with a 2.0 liter single cam eight valve non variale timing engine the performance modules, my unit was from NEUSPEED, generally imporve performance.
________
As for with our 1nzfe's im not going to knock it until someone tries it and displays there results with us.

use some thing like this

it makes it pretty crisp responce and doesn't feel like theres like a bubble popping either...
