The catch is you have to send them your engines computer for reprogramming. 9-11 hp throughout the whole range. I have heard of JET performance before, but I'm not sure if this company is the same one.

What do you guys think..

It would have to be reversable as well. And if sending it to them is the only way to reverce it, that may be a problem.

Just happen to see it in my travels and thought I would mention it.

 

Thats something to think about.

 

sounds like a unichip buy is being arranged, but it will be $100 up front and a total of $600 when everything is said and done. Might be worth it though, the dyno results on the other thread speak for them selfs, 20hp and 20 torque, is a amazing gain for the money, you wouldn't get that out of headers.

 

wow for 230$ i might try it. im gonna store my car all winter anyway, so i could send them my ECU!


but do you think i'll still be able to use a v-afc after that??

what will they exactly do to my ECU?

i read on their website that they could program the ECU according to the modifications you have done. so if i tell them i have intake/exhaust/headers and soon type-s cams, they can program the ECU so it works well with the mods, but how is it possible for them to know exactly the settings to go with the mods i did?

Is the UniChip piggyback already or do you have to splice into wires..

 

I saw that yesterday as well that JET had a configuration for our cars. HOWEVER!!! I would not do anything like that unless you contact JET directly. I went on their site to confirm it yesterday and they do not list it as one of their official products. I would definitly make sure that they aren't going to give you a Accord setting or some BS piggyback that will hurt your ecu more then help it.

 

I sent jet a email today and they said they make one for our cars and they have not updated the site yet.he also said you should do every thing you want to your car before you do this.you have to list all of your mods when you send it off with your ecu.I'm getting pulleys and then I'm getting it.

 

Is this the same thing you are talking about. I saw on ebay....

01-03 Acura TL JET V-Force Power Control Module

 

What happens if you pull the battery? Will the new code remain in it's memory? Also, are there any instances where one would need their ECU reprogrammed due to some sort of failure or error? The reason I ask is because if the dealer says "Oh, such and such died and it effected your ecu, so we needed to reprogram your ecu….. blah blah blah" that would wax the Jet code. Or are the chances of this slim to none?

 

Hey ....it is a piggyback Plug-and-play mod. About a thirty minute install for apprx. 20 whp over the entire band. Well worth the money....IMHO.

 

I'm not sure where you're getting 20whp across the entire band from. The dynos have been showing about ~10whp across the entire band and a max gain of 20whp/20 ft-lbs at redline (~6750rpms)

 

Well, that is what I've heard so far. The CL guys just got theirs installed and are having dynos done today. I guess we'll get the verdict then. So far the CL guys who have been able to drive enough for the ECU to adjust have said they feel like they got headers all over again....even down low.

 

Here's mattg's dyno just for reference.

The hp numbers are all messed up because they tried to correct for flywheel values, but they only put a 12% powetrain loss in, which is pretty inaccurate (our powertrain loss is more like 20-25%!!!!)

I definitely think the Unichip is a great mod, and a very easy one to install due to the PnP harness. But I'd recommend you get other mods before the Unichip or Jet ECU upgrade like intake/headers first.
