LPG and Dual Fuel
Performance Memcal / Chip
For VN VP VR & VS
V6 & V8
Manual & Auto
More Horsepower!
More Torque!
Better Acceleration!
Smoother Power Delivery! Improved Economy!
These
memcals are re-programmed to alter ECU parameters in order to get the
most out of your gas conversion. We add extra ignition timing to suit
the higher octane levels of the lpg.
Most gas systems
restrict airflow which decreases the power output of the standard
engine. By installing the re-programmed memcal we re-acquire that lost
power.
Improves engine efficiency by giving more precise fuel (dual fuel) and ignition baseline parameters and thus...
SAVING $$$ IN GAS & FUEL!!!!!
Street legal. Will not change roadworthy requirements or engine emissions.
GUARANTEED to deliver!!
ITEM DETAILS:
We use Holden Delco software to recalibrate genuine Holden memcals - resulting in the best possible improvements to an already efficient system.
The memcals in this auction will suit VN, VP, VR, VS and VT V6 & V8 engines and the VS supercharged engine. A comprehensive list of vehicles can be found below in our FAQs.
Each memcal is written specifically for the buyer's modifications .
Performance
gains vary between different models and engine condition. Our
average estimate is a gain of about 6-10kws (V6) and 13-18kws (V8)
Power and economy gains are dependant on the type of gas system and engine condition and will vary accordingly between all models.
Maximum
gains as stated (and sometimes higher) will be achieved when
your memcal is fitted along with a good quality, free flowing exhaust
system and cold air intake (cold air intakes also available from this
seller).
For best results we recommend that the gas mixtures be re-set on the dyno after installation of the performance memcal. Due to the memcal not being able to control the LPG side of the system it is important to have the LPG side of the system re-set to suit the new advance curve of the memcal. The fuel side will still be operational for use in dual fuel systems.
You cannot afford NOT to buy one!!
We state average/conservative figures for auction purposes. Greater gains have been achieved by our buyers and are dependent on many variables.
This is a genuine enhancement written by a reputable programmer and includes all Holden updates and service updates. The gains are guaranteed. Our
buyers are always happy. We are experienced and extremely helpful.
We will take the time to answer your questions correctly,
informatively and help out wherever possible.
These memcals are NOT suitable
for engines where major internal modifications have been carried out -
such as cams, cylinder head modifications or change of injectors.
The
memcals will also NOT suit supercharged or turbo engines (with the
exception of the factory supercharged VS - providing it is using
standard boost).
If
you have major engine modifications or a supercharger/turbo your memcal
must be programmed at real time on the dyno. This is the only way to
do it correctly.
If you have these engine modifications or a supercharger/turbo please contact the seller before purchasing .
Each memcal comes with free comprehensive and user friendly fitting instructions which will be emailed to your email address
FREE INSTALLATION FOR LOCAL BUYERS

IMPORTANT:
As each memcal is specific to the buyer's engine, buyers will need to supply the following details upon purchase:-
- model
- year
- transmission type (manual or auto)
- engine size (V6 or V8)
- type of gas system
- any modifications made to the vehicle
NB - PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY
To keep costs down these chips are sold on an "changeover basis". A changeover sale is when the buyer exchanges his original memcal for the newly programmed one. The changeover sale works as follows:
- the buyer is charged an extra $40 refundable security deposit on top of the sale price. This refundable security deposit is for the changeover memcal.
- upon receipt of full payment including the refundable security deposit the newly programmed memcal will be mailed to the buyer
-
once the buyer has received and installed the newly programmed memcal,
the buyer will need to send the standard memcal from the car as a
changeover to the seller
- when memcal
is received the $40 deposit will be refunded immediately via the same
payment method used by the buyer i.e. if initial payment was made by
paypal, deposit will be refunded by paypal and so on...
Buyers completing Checkout themselves will need to add the $40 to the seller's additions and discounts section of the invoice.
This
method saves the buyer the inconvenience of having the car off the road
while the memcal/chip is in transit. The buyer has the option
of purchasing the memcal outright by not sending the standard chip in
changeover. In this case the $40 security deposit will simply not be
refunded. You will not be charged anything further for unreturned memcals.
COMMON FAQs:
How does it work?
- We adjust the baseline fuel and ignition parameters of the
controlling software to optimise engine efficiency and to suit today's
conditions and fuels. We also use Holden updated programs and
service updates released after the vehicle was built for further
benefits.
How does it save fuel?
- When the fuel and ignition parameters of the engine are adjusted, the
engine becomes more efficient and burns cleaner. The addition of the
service fixes and updated Holden programs also increase the effects.
The fitting of a cold air intake also increase the saving (available
from seller)
Will it damage my engine?
- No, because we will not perform excessive adjustments to your
program. Our memcals are 100% safe and will give cleaner emissions.
How hard is it to fit? Can I fit it myself?
- The chip is a straight plug in to the ecu/pcm. It is simply a matter
of locating the ecu, removing the inspection cover, unplugging the
existing memcal and replacing it with your new performance memcal.
Even the novice will be able to fit within 10 minutes.
Why is it so cheap?
- Our memcals are sold online only so there are few overheads meaning
we can pass the savings on to you. The performance memcal we supply is
the equivalent of any major name in the market, if not better.
WARNING:
When making the decision to purchase performance chip for your car we recommend that you carefully consider your options.We recommend that you be wary of:
The mod chip– this is simply a cheaply priced, small resistor fitted to a
temperature sensor in order to trick the system into thinking that it
has a lower? Engine temperature than it really does.In turn the engine management system makes adjustments to the fuel system accordingly.In most cases this adjustment is to richen the system or to lean it.This is a cheap and nasty shortcut, it does not work correctly and is dangerous to your engine.Buyers
should not trust any modification that tricks the engine management
system rather than programming the parameters correctly.
The eprom – these are cheap IC units that are available in any hobby store. An
eprom is recognisable as it comes without a carrier or a cover and
needs to be re-soldered into your standard chip. They are reflashed using mostly copied programs that are freely available to download from the internet. In
most cases these are copied programs that are generic to a wide range
of models rather then being specifically programmed to suit a
particular model.As one chip does not suit a
wide range of models but must be programmed specifically according to
the model, we recommend that buyers again be careful if planning to
make such a purchase. If a seller is selling many eproms for many
different makes/models then you can be fairly certain these are the
copied programs to which we are referring. The cost and difficulty of
de-soldering your current eprom and ther re-soldering the new eprom
will usually end up costing more than to simply buy a custom
performance chip and plug it in. One must also consider that the risk
of damage to your car's computer by installing the eprom is very high.
Buyers will naturally find that the stated power gains will not be
achieved. In short, buyers will get what they pay for - very little
or even worse, costly repair bills down the track.
Overstated power gains- Be wary of sellers offering inflated power gains and high figures to
dazzle you. There is still a limit to what the performance chip can do.
Greater gains than those stated by us can only be achieved by carrying
out internal engine modifications at, of course, a much higher cost.
An effective way to ascertain the credibility of a seller and the quality of their product would be to ask specific questions.We
suggest questions like whether the seller can program to a specific
requirement such as switching off the body control module, or whether
the seller can convert an auto program to a manual.Be specific to your model.If you do not receive well-informed, detailed and correct answers then tread carefully.In this field the basic rule of thumb really is that you will get what you pay for.
