I would love to get this intake. It sounds siiick and it works. period. its just that im turboing next summer
Im hoping that once I get the MAF on there it will waken up the motor in a similar way..then i can get the war chip and start understanding
this is pretty convincing tho: http://www.millerperformancecars.com...III%202.5L.pdf
BBUUUUT...what is ostrich 2.0?? sounds like some kinda software to run a different intake!? that sounds tight but will it give u 20/20?Originally posted by ROLLingKING View PostOh and with the WAR dont u get 2 step. and then u can hold 4 CUSTOM tunes, miller customer support, and a community full of miller tunes. The war chip is just a better deal with the MAF and gives the user endless possibilities with their car. I would love to save money but i think id still go with the MILLER WAR chip and 3 or 3.5 MAF
*note: im saying this without knowing the power results or much of anything about the ostrich 2.0 and volvo maf. its also my guess that youd have to splice for the maf of a volvo to adapt to the beemer. i dont like splicing wires that send important information like that.
so someone please educate me on this ostrich/volvo set up and i may be considering something different. maybe
Like I said Ostrich 2.0 isn't JUST for running a new intake. You can pretty much tune your own car, similar to MS but doesnt have as many nice features.-Alex

Is the W.A.R chip worth the money?
What adjustability can you get out of it?
How user friendly is the software supplied with it, and would it be comparable to other programmable set ups like Haltech?
Ive currently got a remapped chip to run my current set up ( intake, big TB, Big cam, exhaust), but would it support mods like individual throttle bodies and ported head and different compression?

I'd say its worth the money if you take full advantage of the adjustability - you could potentially have a perfectly tuned setup..
Miller PSIK and WAR chip coming soon.. results to follow.......Make the bastard chase you.

if it were 450 id get it. but for now and only because im picturing intorcooler coming out, its the MAF and WAR chip for me.m20 is plenty. im simply a drifter.

Hmm....
Sure you can. 3" is plenty big for a moderate turbo. Hell, some people still use the AFM.
Installed MAF's on Motronic years ago, they suck. Motronic is actually a speed density system and can recognize boost just like the exact same system did on Porsche's. MAP (aka Speed Density) trumps MAF.
1bar on Motronic is nothing new, anything over that get's tricky, but isn't impossible.

lol rollingking is talking about my car. when i bought my miller maf kit i had an option of getting a one time set chip to the mods i had already done to the motor (ie, exhaust, cams, tb.) orrrrrrr buy the miller W.A.R chip which was like 300 duckets more.
which i feel like now i should have got with the W.A.R chip now as im looking to go to a turbo setup. In such case i am going to hack up the 3in to set up for the intercooler.
i will say one thing that i have said when ive heard talk about this intake. it changed my mind about liking the m20 in N/A. it will wake the m20 the fack up with simple bolt ons. torque is better, top end is better, responce is better.
its also nice to know that your paying for something that miller took the time to do the R&D on. not some filter u buy down at autozone with the adapter and slap on in 20 or so min, run it untuned, and with no cold air circulation and no performance gain. its def well worth it!!! i sent an email to miller just to tell them how much i loved it

But Id have to go with miller like he said cause u know theyve done the r&d. im just shocked at what ive been hearing about the customer service. hopefully they can get things together by the time im ready to order which is in a couple weeksm20 is plenty. im simply a drifter.
