Has anyone ever tried this? a Surge Performance Chip, its from Auto Body Kits Car Parts Accessories Spoilers and Police Headlights and apparently it jus hooks into your ECU and into your AIT and O2 Sensors. says gains up to 35 HP and is dyno proven, let know me know what you guys think

Most of the time those are scams, They work by leaning out your a/f's. Or at least the ones ive seen, I checked the link but cant find it.

Did you read this part?

" # Will this module fit my 4cyl, 6cyl, 8cyl, 10cyl?
# The Surge Module will fit all engine sizes and types for this make of vehicle, providing they are fuel injected and not turbo or not diesel."

SuzukiRidr326 · 05-21-2008, 08:35 PM

you have no idea how bad id love to boost my 420A i jus dont have the $$ to get a turbo kit, plus trading my N/T car strait up for a already boosted car, cant really beat that

If the talon is that cheap its probably to good to be true... I cant even do a even trade to a nice awd turbo. (believe me i tryd)

loser_635 · 05-21-2008, 08:39 PM

to Car_guy: I agree with you, Ibelive its mostly cause 4g63s have plenty more support than 420as.

To Suzuki: If i were you id totaly trade for that awd Tsi, only that wouls suck more is gas.....and insurance. But hey better than putting at that money into the 420a.Then again im just trying to get 15.3s or lower so im not shooting for nothing extraordinary
