performance chip

tuffinc · Aug 11, 2003

is there a performance chip out there for the g coupe. the dealer told me that what ever parts you can put on a 350, you can put in a g. im talking about the chip that remaps your governor and lets you rev at 9.5 and will increase to 315. he also told me that there is a company out there that doesnt void the warranty.

I do not believe a chip will give you 70 horse power, and I don't think you would want to spin a stock motor up to 9,500 rpm!

Hey...My G has a vertical JET PACK that propels me ABOVE AND OVER other cars when I'm stuck in traffic!!![thmsup]

Oh yeah, the jetpack chip upgrade! My dealer was telling me about that.

No, the chip upgrades the wheels.

Perhaps the rather inflated numbers you're getting from the dealer refers to hp at the crank (though still a 35hp gain seems very high for a naturally aspired car) and the removal of the rev limitter.

You do NOT want to rev this engine to 9.5k though...

There is no huge logic to not reving the engine that high, as long as it makes power and the components are strong enough, why not?

Honda engines are made to go to 9k and higher

People have a distorted perspective of performance though, more RPM does not always equal more power.

Especially in our cars...on the VQ, there's not much of a power gain from 3K-7K rpm (if I remember the dyno chart right...anybody have one?). Which is great, in my opinion...the powerband starts so low that I can launch myself pretty well without getting above 4K.

I finally found an ECU upgrade for the G:
http://www.technosquareinc.com/g35.htm

I am not familiar with the company or it's products. So if anyone has input, it would be greatly appreciated.

peace

The TechnoSquare ECU has been out for our car for about a month now. I have done lots of research on the ECU but really haven't posted anything on it as of yet because there is still a lot of skepticism/problems regarding it. Glad that you mentioned it though. It is a topic that needs to be discussed I suppose.

The engine begins coming apart at about 7500 rpms... remember, this is a stroker motor. i think the valvetrain fails at about 7300 rpms... also, I'm pretty surethat any exended use more than a minute or so) above 6000 rpms will begine to damage the engin and risc connecting rod failure.

I'm under the impression that you only read one line of what I wrote...

Read the rest and you may find that you are agreeing with me but being a little more specific...

or wait, better yet I will repeat myself:

" There is no huge logic to not reving the engine that high, as long as it makes power and the components are strong enough, why not?...

Like X said; lets get back on topic[boink]

Tazmoe25, what chip are you talking about??

jdhurst · Dec 10, 2003

Tazmoe25 - Where did you find the chip for the G35?
Would everyone agree; that this is not a smart move on this engine?

Now will someone kindly please post some sort of manufacturer web-site for the jet pack chip or some other ecu?
