ECU upgrade post IC/Throttle body upgrade

I currently have the JCW ECU mapping even though I do not have the JCW kit. I am curious as to whether or not i should investigate a different ECU mapping once I upgrade my intercooler and throttle body next week. It would make since considering the added flow and cooler temperatures entering the engine. thoughts? recommendations? thanks. btw...after much research (and thread reading) i have selected the m7 TB and the Alta IC. cheers

L8R,

There are many others but in my opinion the GIAC is a great option if you have the 15% pulley or preferably the 19% pulley & larger injectors.

Again, there are other options so do a search and see if any are right for you. If you're in LA and decide on the GIAC I can refer you to the person who does the upgrades locally.

I would recommend the MTH Tuner map, personally. Its not a piggyback like the UNIChip, and is basically invisible to dealers.
