What da fark is a stage three eprom? Am I missing something? I would not touch that crap with your money, in fact I will send you one of the rocks in my backyard for twenty bux if you want, it will do the same thing.
From what i have heard bout these so called 'Chips' They are dodge. They apparently just **** with your temp sensor, making the engine think its cold so it dumps more fuel?? Correct me if im wrong but that would prob cause some sensor damage over time. (O2 sensor maybe???)
Better off spending the coin on scotch.
hey mate, i had a stage 2 chip tha i got off ebay
and i do think that it definately made a difference in power but only from what i felt i never dynod it
im pretty sure these do just activate cold startup settings which pump more fuel, but as its a factory setting i cant imagine it would harm the engine at all
anyway to sum it up i had one it worked would buy again
although i bought off a different person

if they did make any difference at all at would be very minimal, i wouldnt even think you would notice the difference. biggest waste of money you have spent, but if it makes you think your cars faster go for it...........
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
well with all respect mate
i had one and you didnt so although i might not have dyno proof that it works i did notice a difference in low end torque and from what i gathered from your post you have no experience with them so keep a lid on it
too many know it alls on ct
I suppose you never know what has been done but you would think they would quote a power increase to say 114- 120kw, I would prefer to find a proven supplier. So who does sell known chips for the RB30?

Over the counter proper chips can be sourced from Powerchip. However I think at last check they were like $800
Theres a bloke called Matt who is in partnership with another tuner, they have a business called Nistune (www.nistune.com) (http://www.nistune.com)), who make plug in boards that enable full access to the ecu. give him a bell and he can set you up with something. probably around $200-$400 (dont quote me).
