Message	The JWT ECU is really only few physical pieces. 1) JWT ECU chip. 2) Boost Jets. The chip itself has all new code that does the following 1) Increase the amount of fuel delivered 2) Retards or advances the timeing accordingly to RPM level 3) Other general tuning to increase tuned for the increased amount of boost generated by boost jets. The ECU alone does not make any real power it will make some but at boost levels it will not be significant. What real makes the power are the boost jets (aka welding tips) these jets go into the boost line hooses and allow the boost to go from 7PSI to 13PSI. Its important that even tho the boost jets increase the amount of boost that without a properly tuned ECU you risk detonation and eventually blowing up your engine. The first ECU upgrade you have to send your ECU case to JWT I believe to have the solder off your old chip and solder on a new chip socket. This is a DYI install. And I highly recommend that you also install an aftermarket boost gauge as well. Hope this helps..
