Performance chip for 03 baja?

Post by ppger »

I'd like to get a little more power out of my 03 Baja. Do any of these performance chips I see advertised really give any gains in horsepower or torque?

Thanks for your help!

LOL IT'S A MONUMENTAL SCAM... AND IT WILL EVER BE....

If you want to get some more power out of it get a tune with open ecu and an exhaust... for the ej251 engine that's about it, not much performance parts for these engine...

if you want more you can swap it turbo or EZ30 like I'm doing
The 1st BAJA with EZ30d swap and LGT05 Tranny !!!!!! I love torque !!!!

I love the chips. Escentially on a naturally aspirated car it goes inbetween the iat and engine controller. It makes it think its cooler and dumps more fuel to compensate. Or tricks the engine I.to thinking its lean and again dumps large amounts of fuel to compensate.

I love the chips.
Why because you sell them?
In any case, they are a scam, I have done many hours of research on them, thats in addition talking to street racers and pro shops about the the chips. Plain and simple do they work, NO!
Some of them are bypassed, dummy chips with lights on them, furthermore the ones that try to change the voltage in the map system or hot wire air flow meters ecu cars, the cars ECU just adapts after a few miles and resorts back to factory program rendering all that money you spent a waste.
My opinion, take your money and install a better air intake, better spark plugs or just get your factory ECU reflashed professionally by a reputable speed shop.
