    V8 Bruce Davis chip upgrade

    Well I bit the bullet and booked my v8 00 discovery in to get chipped next Thursday 8am! I'm hoping this will live up to my expectations, I will be more then happy if I get a little more power threw the full rev range and if I get an extra 70-100km per tank! I will let you all know how it goes!

    What sort of money are they asking for that?

    Just wondering as when I had been looking into options for mine, I came to the conclusion that the best was to fit a Haltech Interceptor and tune with that, price was around $1300 from memory including the tune.

    Yeah I looked at that option too but they couldn't garentee any better results then the Davis chip, both stated 13kw from memory, but talking to the old cocky up at katoomba Scott's auto one and he was told the sand thing but when he got his car back he actually got a 25 or 27kw increase (can't remember what one it was he said bug one of the 2) and the Davis chip is only $600 fitted so I thought well for 600 I will be happy with 13kw and an extra 100km per tank!!

    Mine has had a crow tow cam and port matching done...so its probably begging for a better tune to take advantage. Does anyone know how SGI goes with the chip?

    Cheers

    Dan, when you go in there, could you ask him about remapping for a 4.6 in a D2? I have a 4.6 bottom end with all 4.0 top end but as far as I know the ECU has never been remapped to take advantage of this.

    I know there is a guy in the uk who is doing it but I would prefer someone in Aus.
