New TW Chip ;-)

just got in from test driving my new chip... HOLY MOLY!!!!!!!! well let me back up.. i got the 6 pos
with,
economy
high idle
tow
heavy tow
street race
extreme

here are my conclusions
the economy is better than my highest setting on my superchips . both tows smoke- lots of power. street race is really fun and extreme is sick. i can be doing 25 in extreme and hit it and she'll chirp and spin the tires. wow. i was speechless the first 10 minutes of driving. night and day difference. i cant believe ive had stage 1's for a more than a year with out tunes. WHAT ARE YOU GUYS WAITING FOR?????? GO TONY

Very nice! TW is the man! No comparison to other chips/programmers. Now go get some new track times. I want to see the change.

Now Tim, I wouldn't say "No" comparison.

Well ok I nearly put this in the first time but there is no comparison between TW/DP and the rest of the chips tuners.

Would you agree there?

I can say for sure there is no comparison between my old diablo chip and my TW chip!

Well I might.

Iv'e had both Jody's and Tony's six position chips with custom burns for the injectors, turbo and stealth pumps and I like TW's way better.

ill get right on it tim!! i put 200 miles on her today and my fav is extreme. egts werent as bad as i expected. might have to send back for a few adjustments tho. shift points on economy kinda disagree with mileage (high revs) and a few other things. they were the best 200 miles ive had in a long time! got a question for you guys, do you get the occasional icp pressure above blah blah blah? i used to get it with the superchip and got it today. anyway around this? keep in mind, i like to go fast every once in a while

Now there is one problem with the TW chips, since installing it I've noticed my speedometer needle now moves much faster, along with my fuel gauge.

Mine is on its way back UPS for the third time. I, like you guys, can't believe the power. My economy setting also is better then the super chips. I had to send it back twice because of a defueling problem when using just a little throttle, like going downhill in cruise. It was bucking bad but Tony calmed it down the first time and I'm hoping he got it smothed out now on the second try. But the power, unbelievable!!! I was always bothered about the OD dumping on little hills pulling heavy loads, not even a problem with TW! Glenn
