Topic: HELP. More power for 4banger?

[chrisfranklin]

Ya, that's weird dude, I've never heard of anyone thinking Dynomax is too loud, Superturbo is supposed to sound stock 0_0....I have the Ultraflow and it's straight through and even that is barely as loud as a Flow 50 delta at the loudest and near stock at the quietest. Banks sound pretty wicked too though.

I had a dynomax cat-bank a while back for about three years and i thought the thing was too loud myself.  Think it was a super-turbo and I know it was only about $150 and shipping new.  I've seen the comments of people saying the thing sounds stock, so I'm still wondering about that.

I think you gone and broke it dude lol

Ok I have read what gets more HP out of the 4banger but has anyone tried using a chip? Do they work? I was thinking about getting one for my YJ but want to know if it will give it more HP like the ads say. Thanks BJStirm

there is no "chip" available for YJ

EDIT: don't try and buy anything off ebay that says that, they are just scams.

Thanks for the info. I didn't look on ebay I went to http://www.gfchips.com/jeepwrangler.aspx and the site said that it works for wranglers and gives them 60hp and more gas mileage. So Boring the motor and adding a supercharger are probably the best ways?

It was three years starting day one, though.

60HP 

this is what they say on the site you posted

EASY INSTALLATION.  Installation can be performed by anyone using simple hand tools. The GF module installs into your JEEP WRANGLER's engine bay and is connected via 2 wires that plug into the IAT sensor. Diagrams are included. The unit is then able to reprogram the ECU thus improving your car's performance. Everything needed for installation is included in this kit for a quick and easy installation that shouldn't take more than 15 minutes. There is absolutley nothing else needed to have this installed on your vehicle.

what that does is modifying the reading on the intake air temperature sensor, total parts cost about $3, they sell it for $69. Like i said, there is no chip fo YJ
A "chip" is an integrated circuit component, in the case of an ECU it's name comes from early electronic injection computers on which you could replace the memory chip or PROM/EPROM/EEPROM which stands for programmable read only memory, you cannot do that on the YJ PCM. Some of the later ECUs had the ability to be reprogrammed, some were locked from factory in which case you would add an inline microcontroller that would modify engine reading parameters to alter advance and afr curve, switch the PCM/ECU in open loop sooner and so on.

Also, ignore anything that says electric supercharger (big scam as well).

or one of these!!  I'm hopping to have mine installed this summer

Ive got the dynomax straight through super turbo cat back,and It was loud from day one.I guess you could say the most annoying drone sounding exhaust I have ever owned.Now this is with the hard top on, I havent driven with the top off since I installed it last year.it does sound good at idle and after 3200 rpms but in between I dont care for it,maybe im gettin old
