The unichip definitely added more push down low and cruising around I did notice my mpg are on average 2 mpg better than before and it didnt so much remove the torque dip but added more of a kick after the dip. However, the unichip came pre mapped for the perrin intake which just came in today so I'll be able to see how it really does after the install :-)

The tips are actually from an aftermarket exhaust system for a GTR, the guy wanted his factory tips welded onto his aftermarket exhaust and sold me two of the tips =)

I got to install the intake earlier today I just never had the time to take pics but I will tomorrow and intake and unichip combined there is a definite notable gain at any engine speed!! I have 245/35-18 Bridgestone s-04 pole position tires in the rear and I honestly can say I feel it almost wanting to break traction in first gear on rolling starts. Very impressed and happy with the results =)

I love your setup. Can you take some MOAR pictures?

I have the same wheels on my Celica, and would love to see moar pics. I'll be getting an FR-S in whiteout soon hopefully.

Nice car! I love the way it looks and sits. Where did you get your 5 axis wing from?

Is it worth getting the Unichip? I am reading the information provided on their website and, unless I am mistaken, this is like a less expensive 'partial' tune to the car. Can this then be removed very easily in case you need to bring it into the dealership for service?

this is more like a piggyback system that does NOT flash the computer so its as easy as unplugging the unichip from your car and your completely stock without any traces =) as far as tuning, there is a thread open that explains everything the unichip is capable of, which it is quite capapable frmo what i read!!! i just finished recieving the kit from the unichip website that allows me to custom make my own maps so lets see what this thing can do!!
