Diablo Delta started - wasnt clean enough

overall I am happy with this purchase
however "throttle response" from take off (unless at wot) doesnt seem much diffrent than before(kind of a flat spot).. and I dont really notice any diffrence between the 50hp and 80hp settings..
also wanted to make sure this chip was "compensated" for tire size

make no mistake there is definatley a diffrence in performance with this chip (for people reading this and thinking of purchase)

thanks very much to Ken for all your knowledge and support!!!

Two things can be causing the flat spot:

a. Turbo lag. There will always be a little of this.

b. The stock TPS. We used to sell a power pedal to get around this. Give me a call and I'll put you in touch with a supplier (we didn't move enough to stock them).

For the shift points, etc., yes.

Give me a call and we'll discuss the 80 hp setting. It should be very noticable. Do you get more smoke in the 80hp under heavy throttle?
