    Best S14 chip?

    I heard one of the members here had a better chip than the Conforti one? Any help appreciated

    The Iigomotive chip is the way to go. The Conforti chip is a bit of a ragged edge tune and that is why there have been quite a few S14s that have had engine failure with the chip (to be fair, I'm speculating, but if you do some research you will find lots of threads about blown engines and a Conforti chip being a common item with all of them.)

    Luis can be reached at s14chips@sbcglobal.net Sometimes it takes awhile for him to reply.

      I've ran a TMS/JC chip over 15 years and have had no problems even in CA with our 91 Oct gas. They do tend to ping under heavy load though. I also run an Iggomotive chip in my other M3 with stock S14 and it's an awesome chip. Gives plenty of power and runs well but I've noticed sometimes it takes longer to start the car whereas with the stock chip it would catch right away.

        To update: The iggo 91 oct chip passes CA smog test with flying colors. Numbers were the same as with the stock chip.
