57256, I have a question about the Venom 400....
Posted by E1R8R, Aug-16-03 09:05 AM
I own a 97 Talon ESi and I saw in the reviews people saying they didn't get power increase, and was wondering if anyone else has this performance module. I have one and I can feel a difference in power and acceleration. I am not quite sure I feel 25% power increase but I do feel a substantial increase. Does anyone else that has a Venom 400 have any other feedback?

If u want to buy a computer for your car get the afx ecu. Most people who had the venom 400 thing will tell u it made their car drive worse than before.

mine helped me out. Just depends on how well tuned your engine is i guess. If you have a well tuned engine you won't feel any difference but if your engine isn't well tuned the venom will tune it right. i dunno if this is right but that's my guess.

its crap, it just makes the ECU think the throttle is open a little more than it is.

what a waste of money:nono and tuning...hahaha that's funny. how the hell would that tune shit? all it does is waste gas like said before. you could have spent you money on the afx one and actually gotten something out of it. and sometimes, the mind can fool the body into thinking something that is not true. in this case, your mind is fooling your body into thinking the venom 400 shit box is making your car faster. but in reality, it's not:rolleyes
