received the Turner chip today as promised so in 5 minutes I very carefully replaced the stock chip with the new mystery one. No waiting to get home this time!
Went for a casual cruise to warm the old 530 up, didn't notice the part throttle response that Marks chip had and the mileage doesnt seem to have went up either. Same amount of peddle required to get the thing moving so I was anxiously wondering if this was a blatant misuse of my economicaly challenged funds. My main concern was the transmission shifting problem and engine code lights that I had previously with Marks chip, none at all just like stock.
I glance down at the guage...warm. Turn around give her about half throttle, definite improvement! As I anxiously wait for the light to change I wonder if it's my imagination hoping for an improvement. Green means go so I flatten the peddle and notice that the power band has lowered about 1000 RPM's making it much better than stock! Once in the band it pulled with a definite increase, like I changed the rear gears or gutted about 500 pounds off the car.
After waiting 6 months I finally have a chip that puts a smile on my face like a kid at a carnival! Costed a bit more for the Turner chip but I feel that it was well spent after all.
Who can put a price on a kids smile?
:D :D :D :D
