JET Chip stage 2 - 2/15/2005 9:54:42 PM    02 Vortech Posts: 279 Joined: 12/11/2004 Status: offline My friend owns a 03 silverado 1500 with the 4.3L vortech v6 in it. He has done mostly the same mods i have. He has a custom intake, and a poweraid throttle body spacer. Now before when we raced he would barley get me, but last week he bought a JET CHIP stage 2 module, and now he just hits the throttle and his truck lays down big black lines, plus he woops my ass now when we race. JET claims something like 25 more hp and 15-20 more ft. lbs of torque, and i beleive them. When i get it, which is what im saving for as of now, i will let you know how things go. _____________________________ CUSTOM REARMOUNT TURBO BLAZER - 11psi 8.36 @ 83m Post #: 1

I did hear that a power programmer was a WAY BETTER option. _____________________________ Clear Turns, Euro Tails, Diamond Plate Floor Mats, Cold Air Intake, Billit Grille Emblem, Envoy Door Handles, Alpine CDA-9815, Two 12" Audiobahn Subs, 400 Watt Audiobahn Amp, Custom Made Box, Billit Headlight/HVAC Knobs (in reply to timetoblaze) Post #: 4

I heard all a chip does is enhance the mods that have been previously done to the engine. such as intake, exhaust, pullies, cam, etc.... is there a dyno around you so you could do a before and after? _____________________________ 01 jimmy, 95 blazer, 01 sonoma, 75 kawasaki kz400, 87 starcraft popup lol!

But instead of going with the $270 jet chip i think i will go with, MARCH pullies, and MARCH spark plug wires for a total of somewhere around $210 and proven hp improvments of up to 15 w/ both.

RE: JET Chip stage 2 - 2/19/2005 3:37:06 PM    timetoblaze Posts: 586 Joined: 9/9/2004 Status: offline yeah going with the pullies would be a better idea than the chicp..... before i put my pullies on i wasnt able to blow tire yes one tire(sux) but anyways after i put them on i was able to break stand it without water or anything on the tire i think its a better choice _____________________________ Asshole Motorsports Because going fast looks much cooler when your car is on fire...

It accelerates ALOT better. Although there isn't that big a difference from a dead stop. I thought that stock the 4.3 was a little sluggish. The best part is the 100mph limiter is now gone! I got it for $200 on eBay. Worked GREAT! < Message edited by mharrison -- 7/22/2005 5:08:04 PM > (in reply to 02 Vortech) Post #: 13
