GUys Just got my ECU back from ViperBob.
I am runnuing 91 in the car so I assume I am
not getting the full beneift but this is my report.
The car always felt like it had gobs of power. but
it did feel a bit porky. like the motor knew the
car is a bit heavier than it needs to be. Now it
feels as thought the motor can move the car effortlessly
like the car has lost about 300lbs. the power comes sooner
the power comes easily much cripser. just another hoot
level up!!

One quirk though on the stock program- the
stock idle hunted abit. this new program is rock steady at
800RPM. Very nice upgrade! Visit your Local ViperBob outlet
soon! Disclaimer I am not affiliated with Viperbob I am just paying
into his retirement fund!
I am now going to get my blanky, my dog and I am getting in
my big ole chair and i am gonna watch the masters when I am
not napping!! its 72 here today with gentle breeze
happy Easter everyone!!

SPR

how much? Is it just reprogramming a 97tt ecu then?

OldGuy

SPR I have a 97 so the programming only was around $1k.

You should be out driving instead of watching stuffy golf. Esp with that new chip-o-la.

SPR

that is the only mod just the programming, and of course an upgraded oil cooler to be safe about it? That's a pretty nice deal if so and would be interested to hear more.

OldGuy

SPR I am working on the Oil cooler thats next. i did a run last
nite and nervously watched the temp gauge. no problem
very cool but still I am gonna do it. Email ViperBob and he can
expalin the whole thing or email him at bob@renntt.com

SPR

cool I will look into it. Thanks.

We are not claiming 480hp from an ECU only are we
If it is the Protomotive claim - My car dynoed at 430hp with that ECU mod.

I love you OG but I don't think an ECU upgrade alone gets anywhere near 480hp. However, it does sound like your cars performance is improved, and that's what really counts. Mike W

OldGuy

I have no way of knowing what the car has without a dyno,of course
But I felt the muffler bypass mod, with the butt-o-meter and this
one is signifiacantly more.
