You will never get codyace to back down on the JWT thing, I am going enthalpy on my gti-r motor with the spud and s3m cams and some ~550cc inj. we'll see codyace. It will take time though

(JWT is very expensive for the little involved in their basic tune)
Did you dyno the two? Did you drag race the two to compare ET/Trap speed?

Then you don't know if it was faster. JWT has an 850cc program? I think I may need to call them about that, when I get my water injection and launch control questions answerd as well (Oh yea, sorry, my lame JWT has both those options as well).

Money's not an issue, trust me. I went with what would be better for a daily driven, daily beat on, HPDE, Drag race turbo car. I've been in Standalone cars. They may make MORE hp, but IMO at the cost of some of nice drivability that the stock ECU provides. I'm not building a race car, so no need for race car parts.

And, as with all JWT ECU's, you can simply datalog a run, send the information out to JWT, and they'll gladly mail you a new chip for you to install (while at the same time returning your old one).

It's always easier to bash something you're ignorant about. Has JWT ever blown up a car either?

And sorry, Power Fc isn't much better IMO as a standalone. Haltech, etc etc is a standalone.

Hehe. Enthalpy is in the same boat as my thoughts on JWT. It's a well designed and setup rom tone program, from one of the SR20 leaders. I prefer JWT, however always ALSO suggest RS Enthalpy when it comes to new people getting ECU/Rom TUnes.

Pop chargers are noted for making HP on N/A cars. Dyno proven. Going to continue?

Tuning? It's a daughter board and rom tune. Both shops have spent countless hours dyno testing, creating parts, dynoing again, building motors etc etc, and are confident enough to release a rom tune. They are all MAF cars, so it's not rocket science to get them to work.

question#1
yes I also did do some street pulls, (no dyno) and its obvious, i know how fast my car feels, and when plugging in a new computer, all of a sudden my car is faster, hmm...maybe it makes sense to say it runs better with the new one???
dont need to be a tech to tell the difference.
question#2
they took my injector did a flow test and made a program for me. cost $30 to flow test,and another $700+ or- for tune.
question#3
but yes JWt was the cause for my engine being blown, ..according to 2 different shops, it was running too rich/knocking
question #4...lol... if you read my post I stated"LOL" which = it was a joke.
i just named that because JWT offeres that on their website so maybe they did too,
I do hear a lot of good things about enthalpy though.


You are right about making changes on curent tune setup,(even though they do charge $100)
anyways,
i didnt say they were shit, i said i prefered the power fc, as most people on the forum too,
