McChip
Hello
I have McChip stage 1 in my 991.2 and I love it. 1 year with some track days, reliable and powerful (more than the brakes and suspension are tailored for - different topic).
Anyone has stages 2 or 3? Quite a hardware change, tempting numbers. My loca shop is awesome, so at least no worries there.
Thanks!

Youre in Chicago right? If you have a manual we should do some runs me (stock with exhaust) vs your mcchip vs a T with cobb. It would be very informative for the folks on the forum.

Just do manual mode and we can do gear pulls - 2, 3, 4. The 1-2 shifts are brutal in the manual unless you give it some TLC, which takes time.

I didn't do a dyno run, so not anything tangible. I'm quite happy with the results as they are, stable application, quite beyond what the suspension and breaks were designed for (at least on track).

450 HP Stock
525 HP Stage 1
540 HP Stage 2
575 HP Stage 3
So these numbers are at the motor. They are not very impressive at all. But I do understand they aren't American dyno numbers which read 15% higher than most of the rest of the world.
If we assume a 12.5% Power loss to the wheels, then these numbers look like this....
393 HP Stock
460 HP Stage 1 (480 for COBB Stage 1) Whilst COBB claimed 509 HP multiple members dynoed at 480 HP at the wheels.
472 HP Stage 2
503 HP Stage 3
12 HP gain to the wheels for Stage 2 is pathetic. (Headers alone would get you more than this) OH I see all they did was Capristo exhaust and 200 cell cat.
Just goes to show, you get what you pay for.

V2 box helped a lot, enough to have some fun at the track without being tossed around (14 way seats aren't proper as well).
