GF Performance Chip Kit? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

enjoi23 · 11-21-2012, 11:30 PM

These guys are making a chip for our car. I don't know anything about this kind of stuff, but are these numbers possible just by a chip? And for such a low price? Seems kindof fishy..

Here is their Scion TC Chip:http://www.gfchips.com/sciontc.aspx

Also, I checked out their other chips on the site.. the Ashton Martin chips are the same price as the TC's. lol

Junk.

It says UP TO.... so you could gain anywhere from 1 up to 60... If anything at all.

Just read and whether you know a lot of a little about tuning, some things just need to make sense when you read them and this isnt one of them, it says 'two wires that plug into the IAT, then programs your ecu by increasing performance"

. That sentence alone is the biggest grammatical inconsistency i've read in a while. How can someone program an ecu by increasing performance, it would sort of be the other way around, you increase performance by programming the ecu. Re-flashes for these cars run around 800+ and this is about 70 bucks.

I really didn't want to share this with just everyone but...I have a magic chant that I say into my engine bay every time I fuel up. It's given me up to 40hp and +8mpg. I guess I can sell this in a PDF file to you guys for oh lets say $59.99. PM me for paypal info

Yeah I was thinking it was a load of crap...just making sure I didn't stumble upon some kind of gold..lol

I didn't even look at the link...I'm guessing this is one of those garbage resistor dealies that doesn't do anything positive...and yet morons will still buy them
