Exclamation Vitesse Chips For Sale!!!!

I have a pair of Vitesse chips, dme and klr for sale..the reson I am sellign them is that they are programmed for 93 octane gasoline wich most of you get BUT I am in California wich has the worst 91 gas and am sick of octane boosting etc..I am looking to have John from Vitesse make me a new batch better suited for CA..the chips work wondefull of course since it's Johns work and hopefully he can come close in performance with the 91 chips...

Not real sure that would be a good idea since the chips are programed for your turbo, MAF, injectors, etc.. why don't you just send those back to John and have him reprogram them for you? They probably won't work well on anyone elses car.

well the previous owner bough the kit and I am not sure I would get the discount since I did not buy them directly..I saw a few asking about them so I though I might try..if I set my FQS on 4 they do ok on 91 gas and If I add toluene/xylene mix even better..just though I would get his vitesse 91 octane chips.

Darius, As I mentioned a while back in private emails.. The chips you have are custom tuned for your car, and since the creation many updates were made to the chips. Using these chips on a different car is not a good idea. The generic MAF chips we now offer differ greatly than the one you have.
As I also mentioned, I will be glad to assist you with chips tuned for 91 octane. You will come out ahead with exchanging them vs. selling then purchasing new ones... If you like to pursue the upgrade option, email me directly.
Also, didn't get a chance to answer one of your questions in a different thread regarding the SMT5 and water injection.. The SMT5 does not support it. The SMT6 does...

I always recommend not to exceed 15psi on pump gas. Some people do it, I just discourage it.. Part of playing it safe! With a stock setup, shimming the WG is the preferred method.


As far as HP, the kits have them on the website. Couple of guys are trying the AFM chips for stock cars.. I will let them post the results...
As far as running Vitesse chips with different turbos or MAF. Well there is no way I can tell you what each setup is making. Anytime you deviate from a stock turbo and deviate from Vitessse kits, I just supply the chips that are the backbone for the setup then you have to fine tune it to your configuration.

HP figures are nice, however smooth power and smooth drivability is what sets us apart...

Well John, I'm curious what your chips will do for a stock (AFM) engine.
I've been waiting on Guru for almost two months. If I can find an alternative, I'll be asking him to refund my money. I've seen Dynocharts with 240rwhp with the Guru chips @18psi. I guess @15psi power will be alot lower, but I'll take that over not receiving anything at all.

My goal is ~300rwhp, but I want to take it in two steps to get used to the power.

With the AFM chips the timing is good for 18psi, check out the recent thread where I described the AFM chips.

To gain 300whp, could the stock wastegate and k26/6 turbo make it?

Probably could, but the wastegate is a vital gain especially when you start cranking out that boost.

Now come up to Vancouver, Canada for a visit. All I feed my car is 94 octane (at Chevron here). On average I pay around $3USD a gal for it, on average.

When can we expect you? We'll take you up the Sea to Sky, thats usually good for $30CDN in gas

Wow $3 for 94? over here we only have two types of fuel. 95 (which costs $1.25 per gal) and 99 ($1.5 per gal). every since i got my car (back in Jan) i ALWAYS used the 99 octan rate guess i'm lucky
