Steve WOng Chip

Beaky · Sep 17, 2005

Landed in Heathrow at 9am, had fitted SW's chip and test driven by 1 pm guess what I was thinking about in the air over the Atlantic.

Anyway initial impressions are very promising, the car feels much more crisp and eagar particularly through the gears, as there was a lot of traffic about I didn't have chance to give it a proper workout, but I did notice that the car seems to idle more smoothly but at a slightly higher rev than before, anyone else notice this?

More to come once the jetlag has passed and I can spend a good few hours on the road

It might be time to retune on a dyno Chris, maybe a trip up the M1 to Weltmeister might be a good idea. I wish SCs had brains, I'll just have to wait till Bitz racing add control over ignition timing along with fuelling to their EFI system for flat sixes.

FYI...

In working with Steve W for a couple of yrs now in refining the "3.2" chip we are all using in Europe, one of the first observed effects was a slight increase in low speed idle. I thought I had imagined it, but Steve confirmed that he had re-programmed this apsect into his re-map,to counteract the sometimes sticking idle bypass valve you can get on older 3.2's

I told him that mine was working fine thanks, so didn't need this feature.

He sent me a re-programmed chip (a long time back now) which took me back to std.

PS - are we heading towards concensus for a 2nd 3.2 day @ Weltmeister ?

I am in (chip coming soon) - how about 15/10 ?

Beaky · Sep 20, 2005

Count me in for a dyno, Mid October is now Ok for me

Have been liasing with Steve - Floated the idea to our region(24) the other night and have had some positive response.

Note to Steve - shall we settle on the 15th?

15th is a very high probability. This leaves us <1 month to promote to the membership / register, but we still have a chance to promote via the 3.2 register in PP.

Who runs the 3.2 register these days ? I know Tony is looking to stand down, but unaware of who took the slot. I did make a proposal (you know who you are) bit still waiting

Any candidates ?

Steve - Major problem with the 15th. Most of R24 including me (I have just been reminded) are at a Porsche Tech day at OPC Cambridge.

What about the end of the month say 29th October. The following weekend is the NEC Classic Car Show, that then puts us well into November.

Sorry about the brain fade....must be an age thing I guess.

If this is all too much go ahead with the other 3.2 guys and we'll have another day later on when the diaries have settled down.

IanHighfield · Sep 20, 2005

22nd is not good for me, but 29th is OK.

Guess it is a question of getting a date from Alan, and then going with that.

You can't please all the people etc. etc. etc. so if I cannot make it, then I will just have to get to the next one.

Beaky · Sep 21, 2005

Question:- how much does SW charge for each alteration (remap) of his chip e.g if I send him a new dyno reading

alpole · May 23, 2006

Yes Chris I might be interested dependant on cost. I have an 88 clubsport.

I'm in!

Chris_911 · May 24, 2006

OK.

Any suggestions as to how I make this happen between us? I don't want to end up with any financial exposure!

I've contacted Steve Wong - for 3 or more he will offer a 10% reduction.

Steve's chips are such great value for money I wouldn't let 10% discount sway a purchase..... order one before the summers over [

Absolutely right. Just buy one.

alpole · May 25, 2006

Which chip would you recommend . The standard performance chip or the custom chip for my clubsport which does a mixture of road and track.

Jacob · May 25, 2006

I opted for the custom chip and am very pleased, increased bhp better throttle response etc.

I guess it's down to you and how differently you want the car to feel.

If you are unhappy Steve offers 100% satisfaction guaranteed - or your money back (IIRC)

For the very best results, send Steve the AFR info from a dyno session. In addition (or even w/o the AFR's) tell him as much as posible about your car - exhaust type, filter etc. plus what fuel your most likely to use & whether you want more top end power, or part throttle response (my recommendation) & what you want the rev limiter set at.

Chris_911 · May 26, 2006

To those who have expressed interest, here's how it will work (Steve Wong's proposal):

'Provide me the names and if possible, email address of each person who is committing to a purchase. Once you've completed the list and forwarded it to me, the group buy will be closed. I'll compile a private link for each person to pay through with the discounted pricing. When I receive at least three payments, the orders will be processed. If the minimum is not reached, then the initial buyers can
either be refunded or pay the difference and retain their order. It would
be best after the list is closed if each person would contact me about their
car to ensure that the correct chip is programmed and sent - for that they
can go through the contact page on the site.'

I'm very keen to get my chip so would appreciate it if those who have expressed an interest contact me to get things moving. If you are no longer interested then please also let me know - that way I can judge if we still have the minimum 3 orders.

Many thanks.
