Navybass Posted November 8, 2005 Report Posted November 8, 2005 Who makes a good performance chip and cold air intake for a 1994 GP with a 3.1L V6? I've looked on ebay and saw some inexpensive chips and cold air intakes, but the prices were very inexpensive and worried me a bit. Any other performance suggestions would also be helpful. Quote
Miko K Posted November 8, 2005 Report Posted November 8, 2005 These are not actual "performance EPROM chips". THe ones on Ebay are just resistors that lie to your PCM about the intake air temperature-they just advance the timing. The intakes, don't buy the warm air intake, get a true cold air one( if anyone actually makes them, except me ) otherwise you won't gain nothing but loud intake sound. Quote

Do you have any instructions on how to make the cool air intakes, or how much do you sell them for? Also, I heard that there is something in the air intake that pushes hot water through to heat the air. Is that true, and is there a way to bypass that, if it is true? Quote
JakeMetz63 Posted November 8, 2005 Report Posted November 8, 2005 http://www.60degreev6.com and then click on the link to the store, Ben there makes good Chips (from what I hear) Edit : i just checked and it says he only makes up to model year 93 for the 3.1 W body, But I would email him and ask him if he could make one for you.

z34_nut Posted November 8, 2005 Report Posted November 8, 2005 I am not sure if the 3.1's have that. I think you are talking about the throttle body bypass "mod". Essentially you bypass coolent lines that run into your throttle body to warm up the TB on a cold day. Personally I wouldn't waste my time. As for chips, dont waste your time with ebay. Thats a total joke. Get one from ben. You can order them from the link under my signature. Quote
Cam'ron Posted November 9, 2005 Report Posted November 9, 2005 yeah as i found out after i joined up here and asked all the same questions you just did, the shit on ebay is just that do not waste your time... Quote
1QUICKHATCH Posted November 9, 2005 Report Posted November 9, 2005 I would start out with the basics like a cat back exhaust or a larger throttle body if you have a 3100 you should have a 52mm TB, look for a TB off a 3400 or 2000+ 3100 they have 56mm TBs stock. 8) Quote
231gtpguy Posted November 9, 2005 Report Posted November 9, 2005 i have the intake reisstr mod on my gtp and i gained about 20 hp accord. 2 gtech Quote
231gtpguy Posted November 9, 2005 Report Posted November 9, 2005 dude i kno wut it said the gtech is the next best thing 2 a dino. Quote
Cam'ron Posted November 9, 2005 Report Posted November 9, 2005 and on the second pull it went back to normal right? those resistor mods are crap Quote
231gtpguy Posted November 9, 2005 Report Posted November 9, 2005 ok wutever i paid 400 4 the gtech i think its rite Quote
