so you definetly feel a gain with it, does the car really feel faster and more responsive, i assume no dyno facts, also your car looks good what did you go with when you lowered it, i have 20x10's on the back and 19x8.5's on the front i don't know what to go with so i don't rub.

Yes I definitely felt a good gain, I have an auto and the downshift at 40mph breaks my tires loose and it never did that before. The drop: I cut one full coil of each spring it rides a little rougher but the cornering is an amazing difference, body roll is almost non existent. The only rub problem I have is when I turn really sharp backing out it get a little rub but it does not do it going forward (I don't know how that all works) I wanted to get 20s but I don't know now I might just go with 19s all around.

The tints are smoked 3m with no adhesive got them off of eBay headlights and tail lights were like $20 they were a little small but they stretch really good. Taking them off and putting them back on is really easy as well, just a spray bottle with watter and a little alcohol & a squeegee about 5 mins all around. The stripes are vinyl that I got from a local vinyl shop, also there's a thick one across the back window.

Here is what the back window looks like:

They do have crome but I am not sure on how long it would last, I would imagine it wont last as long as non crome you might want to look into that. ECU does not take but 45 seconds to get out very very easy it just unclips and slides out.

The car looks damn good! Just enough to close the gap between the tire and the wheel well. Did you change the shocks to compensate for the drop?

I cant say that it is better than the powerchip because I have not had it to compare. I will say you will not be disappointed, money well spent in my book.

Go with InMotion, they were great to work with. If you don't want to mess with sending off the ECU, give them a deposit, they send you the tool to hook up your laptop, read the ecu, email them the file, they send you back the "tuning" file in a few hours, and you write it to the ecu (takes just a few minutes). That's how I did mine, and the difference was even noticeable to my girlfriend from the passenger's seat. I also use some 100 octane unleaded racing fuel 50/50 with the crappy premium here in Phoenix, and really tell the difference.

Just did a track day at PIR with a guy who used to own an Xfire, and he couldn't believe the difference (MB V8 instake with K&N's, InMotion chip, and Magnaflow exhaust).

How much was the rental of the tool? Was there a deposit? I think a couple guys here in Central Texas mght be interested in doing this type of tuning.

You'll have to talk to James at InMotion --- I did several cars (not just crossfires), so the deposit was basically what it cost for the software.........
