Hello everyone!

i have seen the torque and horsepower curves in the website, and I was wondering about how the Dali chip performs in the low RPM range (idle to about 3000 RPM. On a stock NSX, at lower RPM's, the Dali chip actually looses power and torque to the OEM chip at low RPMs. With the I/H/E setup, the Dali chip shows higher torque and Horsepower at low RPM's, but there still werent any results shown between idle RPMs to 3000 RPM's.

I can see that on a stock NSX, during low RPM's the Dali chip will kinda dog the car, but on an I/H/E application, its better, but I still want to know if the torque and HP are still higher at RPM's below 3000 RPMs.

Anyone know exactly what its like with an I/H/E setup at RPM's lower than 3000?

Thanks!
 
I installed the Dali chip last summer and didn’t notice any seat-of-the-pants hp difference in the low rpm range. The chip seems to provide a nice little kick of acceleration over the entire rpm band.

You have any mods on your NSX? And is getting the Dali chip as easy as the Dali website says it is?

Thanks!

Oh yea, I forgot to say that my car has headers (RM) and exhaust (Comptech) mods.

The chip upgrade isn’t too bad in terms of ECU removal/install. I sent my ECU to BZ (as outlined on Dali’s website) to get the socket put in so I can easily go back to the OEM chip when my cars sports the BaBoSC <g>. Don’t let anyone tell you that removing the ECU is “easy” because it can be a pain, especially if you’ve never had the experience of removing the interior panels behind the seats. And from what I can remember, there is at least one bolt that is somewhat difficult to remove holding the ECU to the firewall, which is exasperated by the fact that the passenger’s seat acts as a pretty good goalie during the whole process. But it’s nothing like doing a header install <g>.
