    Default PWR ECU's

    hey all we just picked up a ecu for our adventra CX8 from pwr, and it is friggin awesome, gear shifts r beautiful for the 4-spd and the torque comes out so sweet now... but the best thing is fuel economy, on the way to the nats we did 14.1L/100km on the way back we did 10.9L/100km...so yeah if u want a good ecu upgrade go see PWR i'm very impressed...
    Need some parts for my VH 253:
    Green standard steering wheel...Green lower B-pillar covers.
    Green sunglasses holder/lower dash bits...Air-con and assorted engine bay parts.
    PM with any info.

    through Chipmaster, $400 plus $450 refundable deposit. the beauty of these guys is, they send you one out so you arent without a car, then refund you when you send your original back

    yeah , I would Go for one of Dan's mail order tunes over the PWR one, But as Dan will tell you a Custom tune will be a much better option.

    For what they charge you can get a full tune done, its not worth the money. If you are certain of a mail order tune, do as OLS said, call chipmaster
