Call TurboXS and discuss your issues with them. They may be able to find a specific setup for your application.

Have a Unichip and I need it reprogrammed?

A. You are a TurboXS Unichip customer.

TurboXS will reprogram your Unichip to one or our 'Stages" for free and all you are responsible for is the shipping to and from us. We do this on our time, when we have time, so please bear with us as it may take 3 days before it is shipped back to you.

Here are your ONLY options for reprogramming:

STG1 or STG191 (91 oct): 02 WRX with a muffler or cat-back exhaust only!

STG2 or STG291 (91 oct): 02 WRX with a TurboXS Turbo-back exhaust system only!

STG3: 02 WRX with a TurboXS Turbo-back exhaust system, TurboXS uppipe, and a TurboXS TMI only!

STG4: 02 WRX, TXS TBE, TXS Uppipe, VF30, STI Injectors, Fuel Pump, and optional TXS TMI only!

B. I am not a TurboXS customer; I bought a TurboXS Unichip used.

TurboXS will still reprogram your Unichip to one or our 'Stages" for free and all you are responsible for is the shipping to and from us. We do this on our time, when we have time, so please bear with us as it may take 3 days before it is shipped back to you.

C. I have a Vishnu Unichip and want TurboXS to reprogram it.

Sorry, send it to Vishnu Performance.

D. I have a Cobb Tuning Unichip and want TurboXS to reprogram it.

Sorry, send it to Cobb Tuning.

E. I have additional parts not listed in your stages.

We will make no exceptions in reprogramming for other components. Serious engine damage may result! Either remove the components or get something tunable like the UTEC.

F. I have a different manufacturer’s component.

Sorry, but it may or may not work properly with our programs.

G. I have an 03 WRX, can I use the TurboXS Unichip?

The TurboXS Unichip is not 03 compatible!

H. Can I have my TurboXS Unichip custom tuned?

Yes, TurboXS offers custom tuning at our dyno facility only.

If all criteria is met then send your TurboXS Unichip to:

TurboXS
Attn: Unichip Reprogramming
8041 Queenair Dr. Unit #2
Gaithersburg, MD 20879

Thanks for your understanding.

Phil
TurboXS



I cant answer you as to why it wont work, but according this FAQ written by Phil from TurboXS, it just wont

I hope this helps but i still don' t see why they did this.

No problem dude. But if your looking for some cheap EM like i am, you can always go with vishnu's unichip for they're stage 2 ( VF30 sti injectors, fuel pump) but for your mods i would go with Cobb. thats like the best bang for the buck at your level right now and the most noticable gains in power. :banana:
