again...chips questions...

[Warren N.CA]

Those who have compared it with the "gold standard" (Conforti) say it is about the same to slightly better.

I'm going to get a chip in the next few weeks, I've been reading here a lot about them and my question is, which one is the best for the buck?? I have read about BMP, bavauto, dinan, turner, eat. I just want to get the best bang for the buck. Any help is appreciated, TIA.

Ok, I'm sole EAT is, now who or where do I go in order to get this chip? It will be a couple of weeks before I get it, but the sooner I get all the info I need the better.

Just order from my website. It's $189 USD for a few more weeks and even includes Fedex shipping. Then it will be back up to $199 USD.

VE39: They increase the torque, horsepower, redline and overall driveability. Biggest overall effectiveness is on manual transmission vehicles.

If you add the performance chip to an automatic do you also have to add a chip for the transmission? Dinan won't sell me their chip ($299) without also selling me the transmission chip ($199).

Thanks

my 1991 525i's with no thought of adding a tranny chip. You need to look into one of them - most of us strongly prefer the E.A.T., and it is less expensive.

You don't have to install transmission software just because you installed a new engine management chip. I'm surprised Dinan told you that as I'm sure they would sell just a performance chip in the past. I think it's just a way for them to sell you $500 in products instead of $299.

So it's $299 now for a Dinan chip? Mine seems like a great deal at $199 then.

His post didn't mention E.A.T. and so you might not realize this. His regular posting here is just another excellent reason for purchasing his chip over the other well known makers.

Get one - you will love it!

Thanks Mark. I'll keep that in mind. I think I'll add the chip in the next couple of months. RIght now I am putting about $2000 into needed repairs (thrust arms, rear bumper, plugs, filters etc). As soon as I get my next cash infusion I'll get your chip as it seems to be the preferred brand amongst the forum members.
