Re: Ordering dsmlink some ?

I thought the website was pretty informative. What are you asking exactly?

Why are you spending the money on a DSMLink when your website mod list is pretty short. When you go to upgrade your injectors you are going to have to get a new chip. I'd at least look at getting new injectors at the same time so you can save a few dollars. Good choice on picking the DSMLink over the AFC. Knowing all the choices available for 2Gs right now, I'd never get an AFC and would pick the DSMLink or ECU+. I'd get the ECU+ if money was tight and you didn't have an EPROM ECU available.

Re: Ordering dsmlink some ?

well i want to see what my car looks like right now instead of slapping a bunch of other mods on then trying to tweak it all...just heard it was a good idea

Or should i put that money towards some injectors and turbo? For the EvoIII 16G , 550cc injectors should be efficient right?

Re: Ordering dsmlink some ?

It is a good idea to learn to tune before throwing on "big horsepower" parts. I am just trying to point out that you can save a few bucks by installing injectors and getting the DSMLink chipped for them at the same time. The larger injectors won't hurt anything right now since the DSMLink automatically compensates for them.

Re: Ordering dsmlink some ?

If you think it will be a few months before you next mod getting the DSMLink now and getting used to tuning with it wouldn't be a waste at all. I'd just hate to see someone spend money on a product and then have to upgrade it in a few weeks.

Re: Ordering dsmlink some ?

i'm not telling u what to do, but getting the DSMlink will be deff going to be a nice upgrade, at any point of your cars upgrading. also i don't think your chip will be set for a sertain size injectors. thats the hole point ,you can run any size of them with the DSMlink. and not to mention all the other extras coming with it. for sure u will get a power increase imideatly. again i might be wrong, but if i had an EPROM ECU in my 95 GST(with my luck i didn't) i would deffenetly buy it right away. i think that DSMlink is a must with these vehicles... my 0.02$... i mean you simply can only gain once u have it, no mather what...

Re: Ordering dsmlink some ?

i recently have been thinking the same thing. Theres a guy in town who's got a 98 gst with a couple of bolt ons and an aem ems and he swears by it. Now ive seen his dyno print outs and there incredible 300+ to the wheels. I have decided an ems would be my next mod. The injectors id probably wait on till i pick up my t/kit

Re: Ordering dsmlink some ?

The AEM EMS is the best out there hands down. Most people wouldn't be able to handle having complete control of their engine like that. It takes a very good understanding of how everything interacts together to pull off tuning with an AEM EMS. That's what great about DSMLink, it gives you a powerful tool to tune with, but still leaves you room for safety. Most of the low throttle maps remain the same since one of the main features is having your injector size built into the ECU's own coding.

ECU+ has injector size selection in it's programing.

When you order DSMLink, we'll ask which injectors you have. We then burn a chip with default settings for those injectors. So yes, if you loose power to the ECU, DSMLink will still function properly. It won't "forget" anything necessary to run your engine. The things lost will include the adjustments you made to the stock timing and WOT fuel tables. The stock values are still there. You'll simply revert back to those values when the ECU powers back up.

Re: Ordering dsmlink some ?

so then you would have to send it back to get it reprogrammed once you got larger injectors?

Re: Ordering dsmlink some ?

Either send the chip back or just buy another chip. I'm sure it's a lot like the upgrade for V1 owners. Pay $50 and get a new chip sent to you.

Re: Ordering dsmlink some ?

I bet they will probably do a core swap, since they could most likely resell the chip if you sent it back to them.
