Last night i got bea by my buddies 02 eclpise Gt, and i have the klze in my mx-3
I was wondering what i could do to my car to make i faster so i can beat him.
I was thinkin a chip but what would be the best chip for my to gain the most power out of it.
And is there anything else i can do to my car to make it faster that thanks.

WOW! Did yuo race the your "Proformance" klze in mx - 3? I think Fritos would be the best chip to make your car faster so you can beets him.

Now that I'm done talking like a reatrd, how about becoming literate? :P

750 of mazspeed LSD
500 of mazspeed mounts.
2000 of autometer gauges.

you could save $1500 on this project and go Megasquirt.
save $495.50 and fill all your mounts will polyurethane
Once you have the Megasquirt you really will only need a $50 oil pressure guage. That saves another $1950.

That's almost $4k off the price. I would love to go find $2500 worth of suspension toys. I'm only in about $700 so far (Tokicos, Springs, Strut Bars) with a couple hundred before I start making my own stuff. I'm gonna copy my PMO traction from my probe for the MX-3 if I ever get the chance.

My probe was a "whatever is costs" project so I'm purposely making the MX3 a "how cheap can I figure out how to do this without sacrificing quality" project.

The Ecu is ( looks in the email box 1600 )
the Link Plus wipes the floor compared to the megasquirt.
for features, tunning and support...

The car is being built to a show standard as well and cheap
gauges sometimes miss read and when you have 3K + tied
up in a allmotor engine you don't want that to go pop..

Total build costs will be less than 10k once i tot up the bits
and yea its my pride and whatever it cost project too...

thats 2500 of suspenion parts no labour or machining which
im doing, according to edgar ( koni's machinist ) add another
1500 just in labour alone for what im doing....
