SVX aftermarket tuning, What's out there?

Thinking of getting back into the SVX scene again. What's out there for aftermarket tuning? When we had our 94' LSi we installed the ECUTune chip but it seems they no longer exist. Is there any company that offers similar products?

Re: SVX aftermarket tuning, What's out there?

I'm very torn on this subject...

I'm all about high quality parts, if it won't out perform or out last the OEM part, it doesn't belong on my car. To that end, there really isn't much out there for the SVX that you could actually call an improvement. Sure, there are lowering kits, brake parts, cold air intakes and enough dash overlay kits to choke a horse.

I have to applaud Motorsports Warehouse for even catering to the SVX, but their parts are not what I would install on my car.

I checked out their website and it looks like they only have the chips for the 92-95 SVX and not the 96-97 models.

Re: SVX aftermarket tuning, What's out there?

I just received a reply email from them and they don't offer one for the 96-97 models since they have a different ECU in them. Does anyone know of any performance mods available for the 96-97 model cars?

I am fairly certain the chips Jake made that involved new knock sensors where for either I or II.

I'm not familiar with those.It's strange I never heard of them before.
