vn chip

[james_sherman]

hey has any one used one of those vn chips of ebay with the rev limter removed or no and do u reckon it will still be ok if my cars duel fual its a s1 vn v6 thanks guys

[Doctor Bob]

having the rev liiter removed is stupid, the "tuner" selling them on ebay should know better.
the rev limiter is there for a reason.
if your getting a tune done you would need to specify that its on gas to the tuner.

the best chips u can get on ebay is a pack of samboys

I got one but it doesnt remove the rev limiter it just raised it to 6000 im pretty sure probably your best option.
but not sure about your dual fuel situation

no rev limiter = peices of engine from the inside on the outside never good

Removing the limiter on a Buick V6 is a quick way to turn a single-cam V6 into a twin-cam V5.

I had a guy call me today asking for a V6 with a little cam to be raised to 8500 rpm :S, he swears his old stock V6 spun to that . I told him a touch over 6000 is all I'm taking a V6 too and even that could fall apart at any time. I don't know where these guys get this idea from. They make no power past 5500 anyways. I'll take the 304 to about 6200 with a fairly large cam in as a shift point but it's a much stronger motor, I wouldn't be comfortable for the V6 to go that high

The guy is insane.... The motor in my old vn died spinning at 5500...

buicks are not supposed to rev, i get scared and take my foot off the accelerator everytime my car goes past 5400-5500.....
To scared something is going to go pop

To the OP, get your tune off greanfoam, quality product..... (i've heard delcowizard is pretty good aswell )

The Vn V6 is just such a badly balanced motor - that's the problem.

[savage1987]

lol some of you are brave. I don't like taking mine past 4000, although with Clevite and Hastings gear holding the bottom end together (thanks to zuicider up there) I don't know why I worry

[rob drag racer]

yep defiantly a bad idea the little v6 dont like high reves at all as for gas ive had this discussion with greenfoam before i think he said doing some spark remapping will help the lpg but im sure he will set you right

correct me if im wrong greeny
