Certainly interesting. However the website says "The VR Tuned Auto Flash is vehicle specific and is really designed for automatic transmission vehicles."
So if it really works any is250 MT could be out of luck...
Also looks more like a sprint booster + transmission tune device. But Dono until we get some testers.

Honestly I think so. This vr chip is not proven and the mapecu3 is. Mikelluci said the mapecu3 provides 20 hp which is right around the same gains you get from the ppe headers. Until someone proves this chip to be legit and actually work, I remain skeptical and will most likely purchase a mapecu3 in the near future

What is mapecu3? Can u provide a link? Does it work on 250's? Or is the 20 HP gain only on a 350?

Awesome thanks. I also found some interesting posts on this forum about this. Seems the MAPECU3 requires tuning for installation. Prob out of my league. I dont race, or plan on dynoing my car, just would like my 250 to have a little more pep. This chip however seems very plug and go, assuming it works.
Here you go... it also works on the 250. http://www.ebay.com/itm/MAP-ECU-3-PI...-/171324578749
