    Chip for 89 325i

    anyone know anything about these? scam or real deal? wasn't sure if chipping a car that old was even possible, even though I do know the computers in these cars were pretty advanced for the year. thanks.

    Scam

    Its just a varible resistor inside a box. It doesnt work. It is suppose to trick the ecu into thinking the air is colder by varying the resistance through the intake air temp sensor. But e30s do have a true 2 wire iat sensor like say a 5.0 mustang. On our cars its in the afm. I tried this when I was like 15 too lol trust me it doesnt work

            what people are trusted? haha. Dinan makes one for $200, Turner Motorsports one for $250, any cheaper ones?

              chips are kind of a sore subject around here; you can get clones for cheap, but there is an ethical debate.

                Chips are also pointless in n.a m20s unless you have a cam, and supporting mods to make power. Just get a turbo like the cool kids :)
