Post chip recalibration?

I am planning to do the following mods

1. filter kit
2. lower pulley
3. bassani exhaust
4. chip

That will probably be the extent of my performance mods for a while and then I will turn to the appearance mods.

My question is would a chip have to be reburned for any of the above mods. I do not think it would, but if any one know better than me let me know. I would like to do all the mods now, of course, but may have to wait awhile for funds.

Any input
Paul

Paul-

Good choice going with PSP - they kick a**. It looks like you have already ordered the filter kit and the lower pulley. When you order the chip, tell Spiro exactly what modifications you have made - just to be safe - and they will program the chip accordingly.

Good luck,

Dave

Yeah I ordered the filter and pulley just anxiously awaiting their delivery. I got bad news today that the pulley will be 3-4 weeks, but I can wait.

Now I am thinking about going ahead and doing the exhaust and chip now.

Just can't wait for more power.

I got stuck with you in the 3-4 week delay. But at least we know that we will actually receive the pulley since we are dealing with PSP. If you do go ahead and order the chip now, tell Spiro that you are waiting for the pulley so that they can program the chip accordingly. Are you going to get the 4-way?? Remember, the Bassani is for sound only - minimal, if any, power gains. But it sure sounds awesome. However, you will be amazed by the chip + filter power gains !!!

Yeah I know that the bassani is just for sound, but I do like it and I am a certified caraholic, or speedaholic or modaholic or something like that and my wife says I am an internet junky also.

I am thinking all my mods will be coming very soon. My mortgage just went down a little a month and lowered some other bills by about 100 a month and so I will have some extra money not much, but every bit counts.
