Has anyone in here tried the Unichip? and if so, how does it perform on the tC..? can you really notice the difference?

 

depends on mods. Munch i believe has it on his supercharged TC and he wouldnt tell me the final numbers but it went from 228hp to close to 260hp.

 

wow thats impressive if its exact...

 

yah i pmed him about a month ago and i asked him if hes close to 270 and he said he was real close but he wants over and he was going to retune again and try to get over. I do not know if he did get over but... he doesnt want to share the exact numbers... sigh

 

What else is he running besides the s/c and the chip??

 

nothing really i know of a header and TRD exhaust when i talked to him. But i do not think those numbers were with the header... pm him hes a good guy his scionlife name is Munch.

 

Yeah I now who he is thanks.. I was just curious to know what he was running to get to those numbers they are pretty high... Im impressed..

yah i just wish he would tell me how he calibrated his system to get those

 

I hear you.. I'd like to know also..

 

my friend spent 9 grand on a custom turbo kit and was able to hit 298 at 5500 RPM. Almost everything was custom made in his fathers shop.

 

That's a lot of money for only 298.... you can get there for around 5-6 I'm sure. It all depends on reliability and boost PSI though.

 

So is Munch the only guy with a unichip around here?

 

only one i know of...

 

whats the best engine management for the tc? anything close to standalone? i plan to TRD s/c and would like the best ecu mgt system. trying to stay away from piggybacks.

i'm kinda unfamilar with unichip but my tuner for RSX is a dealer.

 

AEM is going to come out with a stand alone for the TC but with that you need to know what you are doing so you dont blow your engine... But its preference with the piggy backs. I am going with unichip because of all the problems they are having with the Emanage. Do a search i am not 100% on this. But i know this was covered in another Topic/

 

Unichip has yet to show too much for the tC yet as well though... I'm sure it works much better.... but the kits aren't out as much as the ZPI's.... so I'm waiting and hoping it comes through..... then I'll start looking more seriously...

It all depends on the first few who run it and what there experiences are...

 

Exactly. I can't wait to see how the unichip works out for the tc although I'd much rather have a product that worked well that was tunable by anyone..like an emanage or standalone. I don't have my kit yet, but Dezod seems to be working very well w/ the emanage and has an additional device to prevent learning. THat being said, I don't know how the emanage set up takes to weather changes and if new maps need to be loaded. Its my impression that the unichip is basically plug and play and that is it - leave it alone.

 

Unichip is apparently adjustable via PDA, through bluetooth or something.

We can adjust it anytime we want. Unichip is looking promising.

 

Damn damn damn. This thing does look better and better.
