Default Custom Chip

HOO-HOO; just finished test driving my 91 Coupe with a Custom chip from Alvin, at pcmforless.com.
Also installed an AFPR to compensate for the lean fuel pressure caused by my headers, CAI, hi-flo cat, and cat-back exhaust system. Set the AFPR at 54 psi, and installed the chip. Man, I could not believe the performance of this car. I had to throw my shorts away after the car down shifted at 107 miles per hour.

Really good experience dealing with pcmforless. Nice, person, good product, and good results.

I have a stock 90...Well I have a cat back... That is all.... Will a chip do that much..? And how much did it cost... Christmas is here and I need some horsepower... The 245 hp is not enough... It is embarrassing when a 6 cylinder can out run me.

I hear that! I felt the same way, which is why I went to bolt on mods. Yes, I think it would help you, but I would go on the website, and get the phone number to Alvin, he's the one who specializes on car 93 and below, and ask him if he can increase the performance based on your mods. He's a pretty straight shooter, and he'll let you know either way. Good Luck!
