Why don't you guys back off his nuts a little? All he wanted was to know how the chip acheived the performance that people have stated that they obtained from it. You guys are acting like nobody should ever ask questions about anything, and take everything at face value. Except when they doesn't suit YOU, and then you get all up in arms about it. Grow up.
Oh but I forgot, it's a Porsche so it must have been made perfect the first time, right? Sorry, don't think so.
Makenzie71,
I'll tell you what I know about how the chip works, which is basically from inferrence and reading the site and from reading posts here. The FRWilk chip is based on a European DME with altered fuel maps that replace the stock maps, IIRC it also has more ignition timing. The European chip does not use the Lambada O2 sensor, whereas the RoW chip utilizes it until WoT. IIRC, that is part of the "no go until 3K" deal. However, since Wilk based his chip off a Euro DME, the O2 sensor is not used and coupled with the better fuel maps and more ignition, you get better performance.
Wilk, feel free to correct me if I don't know what the **** I'm talking about.
I thought this was supposed to be a forum where we exchange knowledge and ideas about these cars but it is seeming more and more like everything is suddenly some "trade secret".

Wow, what a great motto. "I don't know how in the hell it works, but a bunch of people I don't know and whom I have no idea that they actually know cars worth a **** says it's great, so I'm gonna go buy one!" Right...

If you really want to know how it works, you'll learn to code in hex and write your own chips. In fact, since you dont want to spend the money for it, you could go that route...

Right, because I'm sure that's exactly what you did, right Brando? That's complete bull****. That's like saying that if I wanted to know how adjustable camber plates work I'd go take some engineering classes and **** instead of posing a simple question.
Get off your high horses, it feels like the 911 forum over here....
