hi, still new to this lol.. so not sure if this is were i post!
i recently purchased the memcal for my VT V6 Berlina from mace engineering for $150 and i couldnt be happier,
just letting people know that it does everything they say!!
so far ive noticed power gains, and significant fuel saving!
my lastest fuel usage was, i had just over half a tank and already done 350km's. and i wasnt driving for economy, due to i had the boot in it to test it out and was impressed that i got that much out of half a tank! on the highways, the instant fuel at 100km/hr is around 6.3 to7.0. and crusing at 60, 70 is roughly the same.
idle is a hell of alot smoother also!
im loving the chip so far, best investment i have ever made!
wa yours a series 1 or 2 mate?
i have heard about those chips from other manufactuers and have heard they aint the best im getting my v6 tunned for $1000 that includes the codes they need to get acsess to the memcal so after i have the codes the tunning should be cheaper if i want it done
Greenfoam on this forum does them 4 $50

That's pretty sweet man, but I can't really afford the $1000 yet lol so just went for the cheeper option for now lol.

what bout the one off eBay US,it says "Stage 3 EXTREME Performance"??
I just got a chip for my VX II supercharged V6 from MACE engineering. its idling smother, shift changes are alot better timed ( even for 1st to 2nd and i have a stage 1 shift kit ) and fuel economy has greatly increased. its worth it man, just ordered a 10 pound pulley for my supercharger of them and have extractors and straight through catback on the list.
just installed mine tonight and wow makes a difference to the way the car runs. for a vt auto it just wants to keep going when your getting upto 80-100km/h and yea gears are better timed and idles like a baby in a cribthanks mace!

How big is the power gain for low-down torque?
Coz we all know, Ecotecs and their horrible low end power can get rather annoying..
For those of us who don't know which includes me what is a memcal.
contains the chip thats got all of your air/fuel and spark timing maps, only in the VT 5 litres and VT/VX and i think VY supercharged 6 versions
ok after a couple days of driving around with my new mace memcal, have noticed a bit of difference with take off, more responsive slightly more torque, climbs thru the rev range easier and now revs upto 5.5k rpm. also noticed a bit of fuel gain. Also gearbox isnt as clunky when shifting either. So far lovin this chipgood work MACE! and for $145 can't complain.
