There's also a TCM on tip cars, for example. Thats also an ECU.

So, when we all talk about chipping our ECU, we really mean ECM... - jonah 2003-09-29 14:21:25 (975 views)

Yes, but your ECM is an ECU. - FrankS 2003-09-29 14:26:28 (832 views)

Nice. Good write up for the noob's. Their should def. be a tech article for them. - GreekDeno 2003-09-29 10:18:30 (823 views)

Personally I think that AW should simply add a nOOb forum... - Bi_Turbo_WI 2003-09-29 10:07:10 (1400 views)

That would be awesome. I would roam there often and search for JAGO :p - DocSlow (Mini Pig) 2003-09-29 10:31:32 (695 views)

Very Nice... small additions/corrections - RocketBoy 2003-09-29 09:28:50 (1742 views)

additionally, chips don't add 60 "fwhp" or 60 "any wheel HP". All those numbers are "crank" numbers. - Steve Trac 2003-09-29 09:40:59 (1546 views)

How about FlyWheel HP? ;) - Mike2kS4 2003-09-29 09:47:06 (1092 views)

*** DOH!!! *** - Steve Trac 2003-09-29 12:47:54 (925 views)

S'ok. I've just clarified in the article. That could have been easily confused with front wheel HP - Neon01 2003-09-29 12:57:05 (781 views)

I though maybe you meant "four wheel HP" b/c of the Quattro!!! - Steve Trac 2003-09-29 14:24:03 (775 views)

you've got a typo #3 - some, most. also, #7- you might want to change "weak rotors" to rotors that - dscottjr (Javelina) 2003-09-29 09:19:24 (1255 views)

#3 - it's the pump, not the tank - daphne 2003-09-29 09:16:26 (1119 views)
