Powerchip for WRX
 
Everyone's been talking about Powerchip for ages.

Can I get one for my stock MY'00 instead of PowerFC etc...

Powerchip is really popular right now.

My "gearbox" needs to be in the "Right Spot" if I go Powerchip.

(I loved that thread for a while - thanks was it Marc?)

I remember back in 1992 when a mate fitted a powerchip to a customer's VL Commodore.

1st Test-run resulted in a 150km/h over the posted speed limit along the back beach road. Impressive.

The fine was less impressive, it was just a few points back then, couple of hundred and a laugh from the coppers (after deduction of guessed speed)

The power of a Powerchip. They are really under-estimated...

I'm sure if chipping your vehicle held any real material gains it would be as well publicised on this forum as other aftermarket options such as:

- Verso;
- Ecutech;
- Motec;
- Power FC;
- Vipec;

Etc

Powerchip is about as shit as they come.

Search it on pretty much any forum and you will get the same feedback.

Yeah, I was trolling.

I read that thread since it was posted and it blew me away!!

I would not want to be Wayne!!

Friggin Gearboxing/fingering ... never heard of it before then.

Anyway back in the early 90's POWERCHIP was a monster around Bunbury. Not a bad word was said against them. If you had a "POWERCHIP" people were scared.....

Different world today. It's obvious it's a scam and will blow you(In a bad way of course.)

Honestly maybe Besanko is a good guy and just got a lot of Pre-pubescents offside. But I think I doubt that - People will get what they give. His company is GOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNE!!!!!!!!.

Power to the people (even if they are dickheads)

Powerchip, nothing a good gearboxing won't fix.....
