Power Chips?
I thought about getting a power chip for my car, any suggestions on which one to get and where to get one? Also, does anyone know anything or own the Venom 400 Control Module? It seems pretty bad@ss but i just want you guy's opinion first cause all my knowledge is in domestic cars and my stepdad wont help me cause he thinks im wasting my time and money on performance mods cause he thinks i dont need a fast car because i'll kill myself. I was like wtf, i drive a 400hp dirt-track car every saturday night over the summer i know wtf im doing. LOL

Welcome to the forums!
I dont know much of the powerchips or ECU piggyback systems, but Please dear lord don't get the Ebay ones.....
Venow makes good parts, I'd say your best bet (and deepest cashflow) would be with them. Try a search. It's amazing what that little button can do.

hell in most cases you can rely on the car more than you can the girlfriend... she wont leave ya for another man you dont have to wait in line for her dry cleaning... and no matter how much trash you talk bout her she is still in the driveway the next morning... less you live in a high crime are and then all bets are off...

Back on topic - Weird - I don't think I've ever heard of or read anyone using the Venom module... I think a lot of people hear "Venom" and they think "nitrous". Also, I've heard that JET makes one for our cars, but that it's not reliable either. I guess throw that in with the Ebay $0.99 resistor.
There's always JWT but then again it's not just a chip - it's the whole damn ECU.
OFF TOPIC: wikd240, you can't bang your car. Kay

What is the "venom" mod everyone is talking about? Cause when I hear "venom,'" as someone has alread mentioned, I think of a nitros system.
Also, I was unaware that JET made a chip for 240's. I had one in my 91 Accord Xi and I noticed a considerable difference in performance. Perhaps it has to do with the car and the way it interfaces with the car's ECU? Hell, I'm no mechanic and don't claim to be, but I sure would more about this "venom" product and anyone who's tryed out the JET chip.
Thanx,
Guy

Yeah I looked into the JET CHIP it is pretty much a scam, they really don't do anything accept remove the limiter from what I've heard.
The venom dumps more fuel when you are at WOT (wide open throttle).
SAFC allows you to increase or decrease fuel dumping through out the entire RPM (piggy back unit) .
Biki ROM is an OEM replacement standalone for $300.
then you have your $1000~2000 strandalones, Mega Suirt I believe sels for $300 though.
