Im currently running 60lb mototron injectors,3.5 maft,w/stock intercooler and stock turbo.

I would like to run 110 octane and was wondering what chip to buy for race application w/boost around 20-22...

Thanks for your input in advance...

Do you have a scan tool? Definitely recommended first! :tup:

I would suggest a chip from either Turbo Tweak or Quad Air/Red Armstrong.

In the early days, owners would throw in a chip and expect wonders yet they never paid attention to their data. A lot of headgaskets were lost that way.

If you have a scan tool, and a boost gauge, that will allow you to do basic tuning while you (easily) shoot for your target ET.

Have you read our "Recipes"? That should be all you need.

Chips
Remember your favorite Race Chip to take advantage of the better fuel and higher boost levels. Be sure to unplug the orange wire up by the battery to power down the ECM before changing chips. Also, touch something metal before handling the chips to avoid a static charge zapping your chip or ECM

This is what prompted me to ask the question about race chips..
