Well gents I have finally gotten some time to work on the Prototype TGP again.

I pulled the chip and did a read. On the chip was a hand placed sticker. It said, "For information contact Jeff Midaugh for precise engineering specifications"  :icon_eek:

:joke:

oh man I had to do that!!! Sometimes I crack myself up!  :icon_mrgreen:

Well it did have a hand placed sticker...but on the sticker it said 3.1L Federal Standards Version V (5).
I did a compare to my chip and CRAP!!! It is a severely toned down chip...obviously not the race chip! :icon_evil: I am a bit bummed about this...but honestly I think I have reached the safe limits anyway on a "factory" TGP/TSTE 3.1L Vin V.

So anyway...I will be putting my HOT Tune chip in it and dialing away on the dyno to get her to max power again. I know the tranny in this car can handle damn near anything I could possibly throw at it, so I will keep all informed as the tuning progresses. I should be able to throw her on there the beginning of next week.

tah tah for now...Kenny :icon_cool:

Turbo looks to be exactly the same as the Factory TGP/TSTE.
