You know, I'd be up for this... but I'd rather hear from owners of older cars to see if the stage I works for older SVX's...

Call me careful in my old age <grin>

Still not real sure what this mod gives us - even after reading some of the back posts. Does anyone have a "one liner" to describe it?
Thanks,

Yay, Harry! Shoot Matt (Immortal_Suby) a PM. He's had his installed for a couple of days now and can answer any specific questions you might have about the chip...

-Chike

P.S. Thanks again for those rotors!

thanks for joining up!

the ECUtune mod is a "plug in" power increase for the SVX, particularly helping with low end power by adjusting the conservative Subaru ECU maps. i don't know what the gains are, but Immortal_Suby reports a nice noticeable low end increase!

i consider it an extremely great mod, given the price. look at what you pay for other performance mods with respect their gains -exhaust systems, headers, cold air intakes, etc. - big money for not a lot of increase. i hope we can get it done!

OBDII SVX ECU

Hello guys, my contact was not there last weekend. I will try again this weekend as my work schedule does not permit any weekdays. Does anybody know if a California OBDII SVX makes less HP? versus an out of state OBDII SVX? I always read car brochures that rate California and NY cars with a few less HP. I don't know when CARB passed their standards onto automakers for selling vehicles in California. I will call tomorrow and get the vin# and post a new thread for a carfax. Crossing fingers.

I think just because there are so few obdII cars out there I may do $199 for obdII cars.
