W.A.R Chip Review

[Gordon1987]

I need to tune my turbo m20. Im thinking of buying the miller war chip, if you guys have used it I would like to know your feedback on it. Thanks..

It came with my s52 setup I bought off someone else and I put it in my e30.

It runs, idles well but I feel like there should be a lot more in it. I feel like my car w 30b injectors is running really rich.. so looking for someone who has a similar setup that can help me a tune, or if anyone knows a shop in norcal?

Thanks!

I like mine. Its on a stockish car but it made a good improvement. They have a few turbo base tunes to get you going.
However as noted above it needs tuned. I have shown the software to a few tunners and they say it looks pretty simple.

[Gordon1987]

Well I have 42 lb injectors at 20 lb of boost so I might need it to run alil rich

We can tune your stock Motronic with a custom chip, right here in South Florida.

my experience on my Turbo car is that It works and gets the job done, but has some glitches like the TCM, constant check engine light and low load stutters and bogs.

My experience tuning a N/A E30 with the WAR chip is that its runs great but will get random CEL's and every couple weeks since the install of the chip the car will get some weird misfire that is only fixed by resetting the battery.

None of that will happen if it's live tuned on the stock ECU. He's local to our shop, dyno is right down the street.

+1 over here. Plus Brody is almost impossible to reach for help. I'm going MS2 soon but if I was local to Forced Bird... I would be going to him.

I think the war chip is recommended with 30,32lbs max

from what i've read from Miller is you can run up to 60lb injectors no problem. Yet everybody who has run bigger than 30lbers has issues... so not so sure what to believe.

according to MS I was at 108% duty cycle at 10psi with 30lb injectors.

We have run 36lb/hr injectors on Motronic with plenty of room in the constants for more.

You are better tuner than Brody at Miller!

I discovered those constants using dissasembly code, as far as I know Brody did not copy my findings yet. Maybe later

i have decided to go MS or AEM. I have a buddy thats giving me a good deal. THANKS GUYS FOR ALL THE REVIEWS
