Help me decide which chip.

[bwian]

I have a 2000 vs v6, which looks identical to pic. Has power windows, aircon, leather handbrake and seat bolsters. I believe it is Olympic edition and has a VT motor, but has no badges, other than the ecotec below side indicators.
Looking at a memcal from mace, but not sure of chip to get, or if the car is Olympic. Build says August 2000.

I don't know if any of the information you have supplied is relevant but regarding the memcal don't waste your money. Get your car tuned. Perhaps someone in your area can help you with a good tuner.

Tunes work best with supporting modifications, do your mods then get your tune.

Don't go the other way around.

Yeap, there was no VT ute until the vu release. So the VS ute ran until 2000. So yes, you do have a 2000 VS ute.
I cannot think of any engine difference between VS and VT, so should be the same either way (p.s not a v6 expert)

I have an Olympic 2000 VS Ute, only thing different it had the options of elect windows and an Olympic badge on the pillar each side, maybe a few interior items upgraded.
Some parts like Door Actuators are VT.

As for a Memcal... Do you have extractors or such or will you be adding them? If you want to keep it stock, fine just get a MACE Memcal this https://www.maceengineering.com.au/...Shops/mace/Products/MEM605/SubProducts/MEM606

If you want to get a Bigger Throttle Body, CAI and Extractor n Sports Exhaust.... Get it all fitted then select the memcal option to suit your application.

Cheers for replies.
Was looking at catback. Not keen on noise but. Does dual muffler catback quieten the growl?
Just plugged in Envyous ALDL with Tunerpro and used vs file to have a look, so I guess all the engine is still vs, even though sedans and wagons ceased in 1997. A lot of fluctuation with 02 sensors
What mods would be handy to have? I replaced coil pack with cheap ebay, Now getting odd stutter at idle maybe once a day, it's an auto btw. So a few things are on the cards to replace and clean.

Extractors, exhaust, cold air, tune.

VT has EGR. VS III didn't get it - wasn't mandatory then. I dunno why Holden introduced it early
