I've seen a few websites that are selling Jet performance chips for the protege. yet jetchip.com doesn't show a chip for the protege.
did i miss something? has anyone tried one of these chips?

yes i read the FAQ...

TheMAN

if you read the faq, you would have found out that there's no "chips" for the car already

Riz

i e-mailed jet performance.. they will be selling a replacement ecu for the protege they say.. and soon they tell me. i've gone ahead and orderd the v-force PCM and i'll be buying the ECU soon as it comes out..

has anyone installed a PCM?

TheMAN

ECU = PCM

My friend has one in his car 2nd gen. There was a difference, but it's not safe.

He recently replaced his transmission and the mechanic said the cause of it was the PCM. (i don't know the details)

Riz

i'll bet your friend beats his tran .. the pcm maybe helped him a little?

redrims

NO he doesn't beat his trans. How can you even come to that conclusion?

The POS PCM puts stress on your transmission because it causes your car to rev and shift at higher rpm.(with an autoomatic, which he had)

TheMAN

and what would it do if you had a manual?

redrims

lol...Beats me. Maybe you should buy one.

Riz

well that explains everything i guess. i drive a stick so i should be ok
i'll let yall know how it works out, should be here in 3-4 days.
