I just put my chip in the ECU also, and am also very pleased with the result. Generally more torque at low end and high end, better throttle responsiveness, and seems freer-reving. Goes up a test hill in 4th at 35 mph now (had to be in 3rd before.) I haven't put in the 1:3 ratio rockers and chrome-moly pushrods yet, so my engine is still completely stock too. (but not for long...). I'll report further results to the list. Dave 90 Westfalia 87 Golf 96 Passat |
