None that I am aware of. The SRT (swift racing) intake and ECU combo comes with an ECU that changes the GS the air-fuel ratio. You can also splice in an overall engine management system like Apexi offers. However, neither of these are drop-in chips.

Shadow,

Click here for a direct link to SRT's website page on the intake/ecu with more information.

And what it looks like (my intake is a bit beat up in that picture, before I painted it and added the custom airbox.

Or just buy S-AFC II which is what I did. Tune the fuel curve on the dyno with a wideband O2 though.

Guru, do you have any writeups, or can you relay any experience from your install? I'm of the increasing mindset that adding layer after layer after layer of mods, a tuning tool like a S-AFC is the way to go.
