Default Anyone with a 2001 1.8tqm with APR stage 1...

If you've got a 2001 car with APR stage 1 and EMCS, and you're so inclined, would you mind doing a simple test (especially if you're in a cooler climate)?

Pick a stretch of highway, pick a landmark; approach in 5th gear at 2400rpm, then go wide-open throttle and time the run from 2400-3400rpm (approx. 51-72 mph). While absolute numbers may not be meaningful, I'd be interested in seeing your chipped mode vs. stock mode results on this test. (and note your air temp as well)

Thanks!

Default where are you, geographically speaking?

You can time my car if you're in the area...

Default I'm outside Boston but travel south

during the warmer mos.

I don't have a good way to time this accurately; you just want seat-of-the-pants timing?

Default What cars have you raced with the chip?

Did you notice a significant difference in the chip?

Default No racing, not real racing anyway

There is for certain more Umph in the car with a chip than w/o a chip. I'd describe it as how the car should have come directly from the factory.
