3.8 VP

[v6bucket]

I've just picked up a VP 3.8 auto for my son, we've fitted a 2.5" cat back exhaust & modded the bell mouth. The eom chip is a BAAM, is it worth fitting another chip or should we stick with the original? Just trying to get the best out of it without making it a pig.

baam is what i use as my base tune for vp tunes shes a pretty good stock tune few tweaks and they go noticibly better

Thanks delcowizzid. Can you elaborate a little on the tweaks please?

I sent you one in a pm you can try out might help you see what areas to work on anyway when comparing

Dec_head is that bin opened with a $5D xdf? Just checking a few things out & the rev limiter is set at a very low number, everything else appears ok.

never opened it up to look a mate bought it off feebay and instead of soldering it in i just read it and put it onto his memcal for him
I just had a quick look to me it appears to line up but i am no expert.
Funny thing is in hex editor it has PXwechip blah blah yet was sold some stage 3 extreme BXllSXIT so who knows my mate reckons it made an improvement over the stock tune but it was for 98 octane fuel apparently maximum advance or some dribble.

LOL thats what you get from the ebay "tuners"
i had a guy got one & couldnt fit the eprom, i read it off & its a tune i did for a guy 6 yrs ago.

oh well ya get that

[delcowizzid]

most ebay ones are copies or bits cut out of copies ive seen ones with vn s1 spark map and vp ve map instant fail you need a tune for a vp and a different one for vn and most ebay sellers sell the same tune for both LOL

[Dec_head]

Yeah i think that one had vn vp extreme stage 3 on it
