Hi, now that I have been royaly screwed by Dano at Guru racing, where do I get chips and parts from?
Are Boost Sciences reliable for the controller valve?

John at Vitesse Racing is generally considered to be producing the "state of the art" in 951 enrichment chips right now. He is also a Rennlist sponser. Do a quick search and you will finds pages upon pages of praise about his products and service.

wwinton: Without a doubt, Vitesse Racing has "the best" chips on the market. Reach out to John and he'll take care of your specific appication. It was one of the best things I ever did for my car, with respect to engine management.

Trust me, you will not regret it. There are tons and tons of people who praise him, me being one of them!

Vitesse without a doubt makes the best chips available, and the customer service is top notch.

For chips you have three choices. Frito-Lay, Pringles and Vitesse Racing. Only one will effect your car, and it WILL do so in a HUGE way. There's nothing wrong with bost sciencces products, but when it comes to chips and EMS no one comes close to Vitesse. If you don't use them, you will once again be very disappointed. I would think that you would want to KNOW that you'll get what you pay for this time. Vitesse will under promise and over deliver in a bigger way than any company that you have ever dealt with.

I took the Frito-Lay approach and it costed me! I could not agree more with you ehall about John's chips and other EMS stuff. The best on the market as far as I am concerned. I only wish I started working with him alot sooner!

I had Guru chips first and I did see a big improvement over stock, but then I went to John's MAF kit with the SMT-6 and what a HUGE difference!!!!! With the Guru chips I had a lean spot, 13.5 right when the boost kicked in at 3,400 for full boost 15psi but with Vitesse I see boost 16psi at 3,000 and perfect air/fuel ratio with just drop in kit, no fine tuning really needed. If you EVER have a question you can e-mail him and get a responce FAST, I mean FAST!! This was the first business I have done with him and not the last!
