Performance chip question

Need your help in making the right decission.

My car is a 1986 911 3.2 Coupe ,

euro spec, metal catalyst, 98 RON, and 231 HP.

I intend to order a chip from Steve Wong.
Anyone out there who is willing to share his experience with using such a chip on a car as described above.

regards
Hans

Just give Steve the specific details for your car and he will take care of you ...
He rates right up there with Ira from Tarett and Chuck from Elephant when it comes to customer support and after purchase help !

Cheers !

Hans, just get in touch with Steve. He's very easy to reach and very quick to respond. Tell him what you are interested in and how your car is set up. He is able to make something specifically just for you. The only reason I don't have one of his chips is I haven't made up my mind yet which exhaust to go with.

I bought a Steve Wong chip several years ago & have been very satisfied. Just seat of the pants data, but I think overall drivability improved & mid-range power is better. And Steve is very responsive & customer-focused. Do a search - TONS of positive comments.

I'm in the UK with a 1985 911 3.2 with a sports exhaust and K&N air filter plus run 95 to 97 octaine gas, and have had a Steve wong chip for 9 years or so and just can't get over the the extra performance and response with the chip, being a euro car we have a bit more performance than the US models, so just get the SW chip....

hundreds of satisfied customers, and 1 extremely disgruntled naysayer. Lots of threads on this.

LOL, true.

Add me to the "satisfied customer" list. Steve was very customer-friendly.
