Anyone know if the JET ECU is any good? i own a 98 240sx and looking for a ECU UpGrade....i know the JWT ECU should be the best, just wondering about the JET ECU.

i've heard from some people that it didn't do much at all, and i've heard from other people (with several bolt ons) that is was their favorite mod. i don't have any personal experience with them, but it will be my choice when the time comes.

Do a search. If your staying NA its one of the most worth while mods you can do IMHO. Very worth the $, it will really tie all your other mods together and let them be used to their full potential. Its about a 10rwhp/tq throughout the powerband. It was my favorite mod I did to my 91 s13. If you plan to go KA Turbo then you can get the ECU reprogramed by JWT for another $100 so it will work with a turbo setup, although it wont work with the SR20DET.

I have heard nothing but bad things about Jet... never any performance upgrades... and all in all usually gas mileage is the only thing to change ... for the worse.

I have a JET chip in my dodge truck.  With a CAI, exhaust, and the chip my 5600 lbs 4x4 ran side by side with a dakota R/T all the way to 100 mph before the other guy let off and gave me a look of disbelief.

Thanks Guys, also does the JET ECU take the speed limiter always? cuz I hate losing in a race due to the fact of that stupid speed limiter they have. Also I was searching around on the net and found this speed meter/limiter by PIVOT, anyone know if it elinmate the speed governer? or just a speed meter?

Do you remember how much your ECU was and where I could look at one for my s13 5spd?
