Default msd chip fitted

Just fitted the chip,wow,what a difference on idle,no hunting,just pure smooth tickover.It misfired a bit when i gave it a gentle rev first of all,but seems good now.Ive taken it up the road,i had flames licking around my ears on overrun,,i take it this is normal.couldn't really give it any boost as it was wet.Lets hope it dry tomorrow.good work msd

i mean real boost, i just about went to 5 psi.Even blipping the throttle standing still ,it looks like a blow torch.Remember the exhaust is only 3ft long

Love the way their chip runs, you would think it doesnt differ much between the stage 3 chips but the car feels much more alive on low revs compared to what I used to run.
