I e-mailed Ed Wright last night about a chip for my 94 3.4 m5. this is what he said about it....just thought someone might want some more info on Fastchip......
"Hello,
Those 3.4L V6 engines normally
gain 15 to 16 hp at the wheels, and 25
ft lbs more torque. I also remove the
top speed limiter, turn the cooling fan
on sooner to improve cooling, and firm
up the shifts on the automatic cars.
That car has a reprogrammable PCM (computer),
not a chip you can just plug in. The only
way I can do one is to have the vehicle
or it's PCM here for the reprogramming.
If you are too far away to drive here
(Tulsa, OK) you could pull the PCM and
ship it to me for reprogramming. I can
normally turn one around within 48 hrs.
If you drove here I would do it while
you wait. The cost would be $300.00, +
freight if shipping is involved.
We can also send you an exchange
PCM (if we havea "core" on hand at the time),
already reprogrammed for your vehicle. If
we do that we need a refundable $500.00
"core charge" until we get your other PCM
back here to replace the one we sent you.
We would also need your vehicle's vin, as
it goes in the PCM. If you used a Visa or
Mastercard, and got the other PCM back here
in less than two weeks, to replace the one
we sent, you wouldn't even see the core
charge on your bill. If you failed to get
it back here in two weeks, you would then
own two PCMs. If interested, please call
us @ 918-446-3019.
Thanks, Ed"
