[QUOTE="loafer, post: 482902, member: 10508"] Unichip is the cheapest route for a piggyback. Standalone management systems would cost upwards of 5k usually. I think Unichip is somewhere around RM2k+ right now inclusive of dyno runs and tuning. For some of you who still don't quite know what torque and horsepower is and how they equate to each other you can read this article. It pretty much explains everything. [url]http://www.carcraft.com/techarticles/horsepower_vs_torque/index.html[/url] Changing the gear ratio does not increase torque at the engine and is pretty much a temporary solution. The ultimate goal would be to increase torque at the engine so that your HP increases as well therefore not sacrificing top end speed. [/QUOTE]
