No go. They are junk. You can't upgrade the 12 valve MMS411 ECU because the data and cpu lie on the same Hitatchi chip. Totally unflashable.

Yea man your screwed as far as anything performance goes, your best bet if your looking for performance is to sell the car and get a 1.8 or a 30v 2.8 and SC that mother

go over to the 12v Developmental forum, they can tell you where to start.. You can actually get more power out of the 12v than the 30v if you are going the N/A route

Yeah the best way to get power goes like this:

-bored out MAF

-ported polished intake/exhaust manifold

-ported throttle body

-silicone hose kit

-new cams

-exhaust

And even then you're only looking at ~200-210hp.
