FMU vs CHIP & BASEMAP
 
Right now I'm rocking a FMU and stock injectors. I was told by a friend of mine that getting my ecu chipped and a basemap for dsm 450's would blow my motor up quicker than rocking my fmu and stock injectors... WTF? That can't be right. Let me know guys.

Listen to your friend, then turn up the boost.
















Maybe then you'll stop being a moron.

i rocked the basemap i made myself for about 1 1/2 years. no probs. i also read like every basemap write-up from xeno on pgmfi.org and here.

Re: FMU vs CHIP & BASEMAP
 
I'm sure xeno can hook me up with a reliable basemap. My current goal is 10psi (not sure what HP that will put me at). You think thats safe on a basemap with 450's? Check Sig for current setup on 2.5 exhaust

Wait, I can rev to 7k all day on a hondata s100 open loop on just my tiny y7 with head studs! I ran a basemap from xeno for about 3 weeks on crome and it was weaker than my afc! I went to get it tuned at my tuner and they couldnt tune it.

I AM NOT BLAMMING, FLAMMING XENO! THEIR FUEL PUMP, ECU, AND CONVERSION HARNESS HAVE NOT DONE ME WRONG!

Crome is a free software, I definetly got what I paid for.

I am sorry guys, but I am a true believer in hondata. The customer services IMO is in the hands of the dealer!

At my local tuner a crome tune of my caliber was $450 regularly $550! The tuner couldnt even open crome on his computer, without it crashing, he tried it on several computers! He wasted 8 hours trying to figure it out. He was so fed up he said he would sell me an s100 for $150 and hook it up for $450!

Sounds like you got played out of some money homie. From my understanding Crome is easy to use. All tuners that I know use it on the regular...

The other tuner in New Hampshire was having similar problems of crashing! IMO it was probably out dated software on their part. They have had good and bad luck setting up free software systems = crome, uberdata, ectune. After he messed around with my car he doesnt want to bother with low end setups like mine on free software, its a waste of his time.

I dont believe i did get cheated out of money, he took off a total of $270, my charge piping blew off and he replaced it with a silicone fitting for free! He is a very nice guy once you get to know him, and understand him.

I use crome all the time and never failed with it. Any cheap build that comes my way gets crome
