Venom 400 Performance Module
 
I was readin about that Venom 400 Performance Module. Is it all its cracked up to be? Sounds a lil too good to be true, and is it worth it? I was thinkin about pickin one up, wanted some feedback before i commit to spending $300 on something that might not be anybetter than an SSAUTOSHIT manifold...

It's not worth it. Look into a vtec controller or programs like uberdata

save your monye on the Venom, SAFC, and Hondata.

buy yourself a nice turbo kit and get uberdata for fuel management. if not then save that money and just donate it to the B16Drag Turbo Foundation for the Mentally Challenged Individual Who Boosted Too Early!

i think he's talking about your way of thinking ;) the fact that you're talking about buying an afc and hondata and all that expensive mainstream stuff when you should know about uberdata since you've been on her for 200 posts ;) hell, i wasn't boosted until about 3k posts lol, but my way of thinking about turbo's and set ups changed after about 10 posts. hell, that was back when uberdata cost about 200 bucks just for the software and was still the best bang for the buck, now it's free ;D

Well, i'm buyin the AFC this weekend more than likley, if not then by Wed. Sorry, I'm not fimillar with Uberdata, I know about hondata cuz thats what the guys arond here run. I'm tryin to either A. put together an hmt kit, but everytime I start pricing ---- out, i think "I can spend a couple hundered more bux and buy a greddy kit..." The reason Im hesitant is because its my daily driver, I need my car for work, thats what I do, I drive place to place everyday for ----, so I really cant afford for something to go wrong, sorry if I sound too bitchy for some poeple, but if I have no car I cant work...BLAH!

wow man, you really should read and learn some more. i have about 1300 total in to my hmt kit including fuel managment. nobody said it was suppose to be easy, you have to learn things to save money. the cheapest greddy kit is like almost 3k i believe with shitty fuel managment. this is on my daily driver also that i drive over 100 miles a day to work. if you want to spend the money instead of learning, go ahead, but you could have a full engine managment system comparable to hondata (uberdata), for less than half the cost of an afc.

Nah, city-speed offers a greddy kit for 99-00 ex for 1700, and for 95 and others is like 1300, and they give u everythging, injectors, FMU, piping, manifold, oil lines, ect...i dunno, i just keep readin how everyone is like, my car broke, my egnine blew, thats way i keep leanin towards the kit, but i havent decided yet, probably wont commit till winter

ummmmmmmm, yeah, there you have it, they give you an fmu, probably no intercooler, you have to use their turbo's if you decide to upgrade from the tiny turbo that comes with that kit, etc., etc., by the time you added options to make it comparable to the kind of power you could make from an hmt kit, it would cost close to 3k ;) you still have to buy gauges, upgrade your exhaust, etc. when i said i had 1300 dollars in my kit, i meant EVERYTHING

yea but it seems like you're still in that boat. forget the kit, seriously, it's a waste of money. custom kits are way more cheaper and "RELIABLE".

and i don't know anything about the venom 400 either, anybody?

Just go with uberdata I have tried everythign else and it just ended up in 100's of dollars in engine repairs. Now I cant (or am scared) to rev the engine past 3000rpm until I get my turboedit system installed and working. And its just so damn cheap, less than the cost of my FMU.
