sup guys,
anyone used UNI-CHIP q box to tune their Euro's?
if so let me know how it was....
So the uni chip has been installed. Tune to be done Monday as they were busy to do it all in a day.
Anyone interested in tuning their euro's
where did you get it done? so plug and play?
manual or auto
yes details please.
Its a 2006 accord euro Luxury.
MANUAL... (people on here who are into hondas and driving hard buy autos???)
i believe it is somewhat plug and play. i never got the full details, i kind of just said do it... i will find out tomorrow exactly what was done.
i got it done by ART - Auto racing teknic in West heidelberg. He is an absolute brain! good at what he does i believe. Well i should get the car back tomorrow ad will post up the results. im not aiming for a million kw, but an extra 15-20 would be idea. lol
let you know tomorrow if its worth doing!!!
Qbox? Isn't that a piggyback?
In that case wouldn't it be more cost efficient to get a Greddy eManage Ultimate or Haltech Platinum? Something that can be easily resold and tuned at other shops if you decide to upgrade?
Speaking of eManage, I remembered someone here is selling one for $700 odd with a tune in it.
so after getting my car back last night, i have been doing some thrashing.
i gained 9 front wheel kw in the high End range. vtec is where you feel this power. it kicks in hard and pulls hard. its fun as!
issue is im missing approx 7kw out of the car. my tuner was not happy.
he predicts its from my cat and headers. i reckon its from my cat and exhaust.
the car pulled 133.2kw ATW. the issue is at about 6800 rpm, the car spikes several times - it does not build any more power but just goes up and down up and down like 6 times.
so something is wrong somewhere. im going to start slowly by changing a few things.also possibly going to a single exhaust system... J's 60rs.
i believe a stock standard euro on his dyno pulls about 117 ATW.
now he believes it should be up near the 140 mark. maybe 138ish
i will first change my cat to a high flow cat. (dont ask me why previous owner didnt put one but whatever. was not my doing) i always buy stock cars and do it myself but this car was too clean to give up. lol
lets see how this goes.
has anyone used JTune products????
if so let me know!!!
how much did this cost all up?
What mods have you got?Quote:

Your tuner is right (if your header is stock), it's unlikely the exhaust, accord euro catback is very free flowing. the choke point is header and cat.Quote:

Sounds like the redlineQuote:

Do exhaust last, it's not gonna make much difference.Quote:

That depends on the dyno *shrugs*Quote:

Intake Header Cat is the order people here usually do, then it's exhaust/IM/TB and VTCQuote:

Few people here have it, really expansive for what you get.Quote:

As a guide:
Intake: K&N typhoon makes most HP (Icebox 2nd, Injen 3rd)
Header: Weapon R header or PLM headers are the 2 most popular here.
Both race headers means you'll need at least 25' VTC, which happens to be the highest angle the stock VTC can go.
Also give this a read, should help

cost was 1300 and was most deff not worth that for 10kw.
Fredoops: thanks for your awesome feedback.
the 140kw mark i was talking about was on his dyno.
it spiked before redline. it was strange.
what is better: the weapon R or the PLM... and can you provide a link to the better one where i can purchase from???
also what high flow cat do people run??? and where can we buy from???
also please provide a link to the typhoon intake???
i just want to check this stuff out.
i dont know what header, cat, exhaust the car has.
some dooch bag put it all on. lol
Dude post the dyno readout and the graph, I reckon I know what they've done (or haven't done)Quote:

And take a photo of behind the engine, I can probably tell which header it is.
PLM and Weapon R headers come with a test pipe, so you just have to cut and weld a metal cat on (most exhaust shops have metal cats).
- They are both avail on eBay.
- I personally prefer Weapon R, because you dont have to modify the catback (with PLM you have to cut the catback to make a Cat fit)
K&N intake is avail on Amazon.com

Lol not happy I must say.
I will post some pics soon. I also have to get the dyno graph.
So with the weapon r you must cut n weld flanges on....? I was just gonna buy a cat. Pm me ur email n I'll send u some pics
