Thoughts about the Thrasher 92 chip with anti-theft

[d0n_3d]

How many of you have this chip and do you like it? What exactly does it do? How does it handle the fan settings? Does it do what it is advertised to do? I just ordered one and for 25 bucks, it's worth the shot I guess...I don't want to run my stocker anymore because I think it can't keep up with my current mods anymore...

favorite chip so far

the thrasher 92 is a pretty good chip. idles good,spools fast. i still cant use the stock wastegate solenoid because of to much knock with 91 oct pump gas but i have been running 22 psi with 4gal of xylene for octane booster(99-100 oct). it should be able to run stock wastegate sol with 93 oct and no knock

never mind about the solenoid. you just may need to adjust your WG rod. ( forgot to read your sig first)....the boost settings may be ok for stock injectors

oh yea, the anti- theft is really nice. i dont use my fuel cut off switch anymore when parking.

I've been running a 92 Thrasher for going on 3 years now. I'm very happy with it. The anti-theft is a real bonus.

Not all cars like them but if your car does, you will also.

well just got the chip today...took it for a test run, seems like the boost starts out going slowly up for a second at first then shoots way up to around my max setting (18 psi)...is there supposed to be this kind of delay? my stock chip i could boost instantly and the boost would shoot straight up instantly...this thrasher chip seems to do it gradually...car runs pretty well with it though...we'll see how it does for a couple weeks since i drive my TR everyday...

First someone will tell you that 45psi is the ONLY fuel pressure setting to run. Nope. But anyway if you havent set it to 45, try it and see. The car may actually like a little less pressure on YOUR car with YOUR pressure guage. Experiment a little.

That said it could be anything but spoolup is typically pretty good.

I have this chip. And it does exactly what it says it does, at least for me.

I just dynoed yesterday with this chip. Stock injectors, intercooler, turbo, downpipe, cat-back, test pipe, 210/205 cam, fuel@45psi, MAF pipe, K&N 8". My alky pump died, so 93 octane and ~15-16psi of boost
