I heard most of these performance chips just tell your car's computer to double the actual pressure on the throttle.

Not sure if that's one of those...

No, im pretty sure its not


Ok, for some reason, the link isnt working correctly, but when you do click on it... under the MAKE section...select "show all"...then click acura...1996...2.5L and click on the only item that shows up, thats the thing im talking about.

Anyways... here's a more direct link...

http://www.coximport.com/venom/acura.html

Just go down to the type of TL you have... 3.2 or 2.5 and click on the furthest right link... that is the venom 400 control moduel you guys are talking about... been thinking about it... but i've heard it only tells the ECU to throw more fuel in and to open the throttle quicker when pushing the gas peddle... so i don't know... maybe the Injectors i might...

The fuel pump... I don't even know what its for... pumps more fuel in??? Either way... these mods won't be for a very long time for me anyways... short on $$$...

Thanks for the link...

My friend, his family owns a garage up in NY, and he knows alot about cars, mostly about older muscle cars..but an engine is an engine I suppose...anyways, he reccomended the ECU chip to me, and thats why ive been thinking about it for so long.

Venom = teh l0se



been there and done that. All it does is increase throttle over stock, making it seem like you have more power.

Not only me my friend. Try the checking out the legend forum too. Many of those guys have used it, only to sell it. The only chip that actually works with our car (at least us 3.2 guys) is the Bayou (formerly Dinan) chips.
