optimizer II
Hi All,
I am new to the site but not the pt wave. I have an 06 vert TE and want to install an optimizer II chip. has anyone done this before and has anyone seen any real HP gain. They claim 25 but I think that is a little too much. I was thinking more like 8-10 maybe. If anyone has done this or know of anyone please give me a shout and let me know your thoughts. Thanks and take care Rich aka rpminfernospt

Re: optimizer II
the optimizer II isnt a chip, its a reprogramming of your ECU. It will reprogram your car to run premium gas, but most of all it eliminates that darn 1-2 shift bog. downsides, when dealer flashes your ecu for updates, all optII data will be lost and youll have wasted 300+ bucks as they will not reprogram it again for free. as for horsepower, im glad you dont believe advertisers either. chances are your guess is right on.

Re: optimizer II
cant speak for much else, but that new airaid intake seems to have added a slight amount. although it could just be my change in driving habits because of the sound.....

Re: optimizer II
I've never heard of anyone being disappointed with the Optimizer II. It's easy to make a little metal cover to go over the OBDII port and lock with a little suitcase lock. Then your pcm can't be flashed unless you unlock it. Piece of cake and the Optimizer II is an excellent mod.

Re: optimizer II
Mean green,
Great idea about the lock. About the install is it hard to do? I know you have to send it to them, but where is it exactly? Thanks for all your help. Take care Rich
