Miller Gen III comes to $378.19 shipped to California UPS, I'll let everyone know how it goes, I may even retail for these guy's.

I talked to them about it a little while back and the possibility of some other things (R&D) but I like the info I'm seeing on their new unit so I'm going to try it out and see.

Just run MS, it would get rid of the restrict-o-meter and would allow many future mods. You can buy built MS's on this board for around $600

Where did you get the $600 number?

On their site, the GenIII kit is only $300

+20hp/+22tq

That's pretty good for the money.

I could e-mail them, but do you happen to know if the kit is compatible with aftermarket chipped ECU's?

If I'm reading it correctly, the kit comes with it's own software I think.

If those numbers are true, I'm seriously considering it. It's worth it for the 20hp gain alone, even without the throttle response benefit.

Why not start at the simple things??

spark plugs/wires/fuel filter/fuel pump

because that wont eliminate the outdated engine management?

why not go MS instead of a patched in MAF upgrade? you will also gain a true throttle position sensor and acceleration enirchment which will improve response even more.

AFM or MAF is not a huge difference if you are running a stock motor.

I have a fairly lightweight bottom end, and a 13.5lb flywheel on my 2.8L M20 and I have fantastic throttle response... and that is WITH the AFM.

Oh yea? Looks like it actually comes out to around $340 for the 2.5L kit.

Looks like the kit comes with ECU software, so my previous question is answered.

It would be interesting to see how the car feels with this kit vs. the Dinan software I've got currently. They claim around the same gains, so it's really how much throttle response is improved.

Hey, Just looked, that's a whole new system from Miller.

I dont know what to Say, but maybe 1 thing you can do is get a special 4 cylinder motor ;)

Oh I see what you did there.

Dunno, thought it was like $600. Hell for $300 I'm in for one just to play with.

$600 isn't bad I'll check it out.

I was just looking into the Split Second kit and it's like $950

The Miller is a lot simpler and works pretty well.
