2007, 5 fucking years ago, memory isn't too bad! You were selling a computer, i suggested you buy someone else's ECU, then you said "Yea thanks but i'm just into cruzin not really into speed when i'm in the Legend!".

Lol I didn't want a chip I've never heard of and I still say my legend is for cruzin lol not racing !

Id go with a stage 2 if youre gonna throw in the intake and bolt on the stromung...or have a custom y pipe made and get a stage 3

Already have the Stromung bolted on I was just wondering what would be more appropriate. If I were to go with a stage 3 would it be thrown off if I added obx's down the line?

You can go with the stage 3 if you like, all that is required is some type of exhaust system and intake. Stage 2 is if you have only an intake.

I have sr5 chips in both my coupes, and as soon as it is available, I will have the programable ECU from sr5guy. I did drive a Telion chip equiped car a few years back, I wont go into details because it was an older Telion chip, but for my money, sr5 chips are the only chips my car will see. Cant argue with a guy that has completely decodded and modded the Legend ECU to do things that you would have to pay thousands to do with an AEM programable ECU.

Ive ran the stage 3 T1 chip in my 95 3.5 w/RL cams AT coupe without any ill side effects, for what its worth....

I have a stage 2 SR5GUY chip which I modified myself, to remove the EGR operation maps and slightly advanced the ignition, it works very well in my all stock type2 1994 LS Coupe 6spd. The only thing I have done is change from octane US 91 AKI premium(95 EU RON octane) to octane US AKI 94-95(EU RON 99 octane).
The car runs very well on this octane with a stage2 chip. It did improve a bit in performance.

Well till I see otherwise my sig reins supreme though it likely should be changed to improve the forums view of Matt and my friendship :hide :

The OP said that someone told him you could REMOVE a chip on the ecu. I am not trying to add credibility to the claim, just saying that it was completely overlooked. Everyone assumed he was talking about adding a chip. Which the OP wasn't.

Forums view of me? I keep it real, some people can't handle reality and get butthurt. I can't do anything to change that perception, and frankly if you can't handle the fire get out of the furnace. I've dealt with a lot of bullshit over the last 9 years - witchhunts, public call outs, ignorant, impatient, cheap owners, trolls and idiotic members... but here I am - still here running strong doing my part to keep this community together.

Good job pointing that out, I never noticed! And to answer THAT question, the only thing you can remove to change anything is a resistor for an at/mt conversion.
