"I'm getting ready to have my chip installed. My car is an '85 that was produced in April of 1985. Is is more likely to already have the 4k enabled setup?"
Performance chip suppliers who are competent in programming chips don't have to modify and possibly damage the DME unit when adding a 4K chip to the early DMEs. Check here for more info: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-911-technical-forum/298280-steve-wongs-chip-no-go.html Besides, why waste money on a 2K/4K performance chip when you can get better results with the stock 8K chip DME mod? "The HP gain for example at 6400 rpm is huge, usually 30-35 hp over the stock chip." Please?????????????? |

Steve-What bolt ons would you recommend for my 964 to make the most out of your chip? I plan on keeping the cat, but swapping the muffler for a G pipe and getting a M&K 1 out. Should I look at airbox mods? |
You don't need to do anything to realize substantial gain on the 964s. However, if you make any exhaust modications such as a primary or secondary bypass, it will just be complementary to the setup. I didn't realize M&K now makes 964 mufflers.
You can modify your airbox by boring some large holes in the air box cover for some additional top end power at the expense of additional induction noise. We dynoed a consistent 4-6 hp gain at the rear wheels after 4200 rpm just by this. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1156097371.gif |

Before I get out the hole saw kit and drill, do you happen to have any pics or can you give me a heads up on where to put the holes? ThanksSmileWavy |

Jealous Loren? Maybe when you have half as many satisfied customers as Steve, your comments might actually mean something! Have a NICE DAY! SmileWavy |
No pics, but you could just get creative with a 2" holesaw, or just cut off the face and leave the frame. Try driving it with just the air box cover removed and air filter duct taped to the airbox to see if you are ok with the change in sound.
Since the 964 exhaust is very similar to the 3.2 with a cat coming off the left side, I would think Ben could modify his 3.2 design to attach the the 964 cat, and have an outlet exiting on the right. |

Not a close-up pic, but if you can't figure it out from here...:) http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1156112506.jpg Don't be worried about a radical increase in induction noise, because it is pretty subtle. You're not going to sound like a Civic with a 3" intake tube w/ cone filter...:) Ralph |
Here's some totally unsolicited advice for Steve.
Wouldn't "STEVE WONG PERFORMANCE TUNING" be a better company name than 911Chips? 911Chips makes me think of, well, Doritos, and it kind of encourages the mistaken notion that a chip is a chip is a chip. In fact, the difference between a Steve Wong chip and the competition can be as dramatic as winning your class or blowing your motor. Plus, wouldn't something like this look cooler on a windshield banner? http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1156115128.jpg Or it could be a smaller decal for a fan shroud or an air filter. Okay, that's the end of my business advice for the day. ;) |
Or how about:
"WONG WILL MAKE IT RIGHT - 911chips.com" ;) |
LOLs, thanks for the advice guys! Jack, you left me speechless - looking at that banner is like looking at yourself on television.
Thanks for the pic Ralph! I like Ralph's form factor best. Clean and to the point. |

Steve-be proud of your name! It's synonamous with perfomance chips. Here's your slogan for free-;) "We don't just get it right. We get it Wong!" rimshot |
I like Bob's better than mine!

Craig-I must have subliminally ripped you off-it's very close. Sorry. :)

That's a mighty big hole you got there Ralph! :eek: :D :D http://www.pelicanparts.com/support/...cowboy_hat.gif
