Phearable.net Customer Testimonials Honda-Tech Username: thehoustonian Testimonial / Comments: First a little about the car. The vehicle is a 1995 dc2 gsr, the powerplant is a 1999 B20z mated to a 98 type r trannsmission rebuild by spoon to oem specs with oem itr lsd. Mods are simple, Passwordjdm whale penis intake, jdm itr header, jdm itr cat, mugen twin loop exhaust. All tuned with a chipped p28 ecu. Previously the tune was hondata for my other setup on b18c1/ls crank b16 pistons and jun 3's. Since the motor is basically stock this time around and I am tired of adjusting maps I ordered a basemap from http://phearable.net/ and could not be happier. Car is consistently getting 24-27 mpg which a stock crv is rated at 21mpg (of course I have considered the heavier less aerodynamic shape of an light suv) I feel pretty proud of this given the gearing and the fact that I am running pretty high rpm at hwy speeds, The motors running around 14 a/f ratio on the innovate wideband o2 gauge. Initially the plan was to do a street tune to touch up the rough spots but i've seen almost no point. Major props to the guys at Phearable for a fantastic basemap. I am not saying all basemaps are equal and will get such results but this time around they were spot on Honda-Tech Username: N/A*GSR Vehicle: Integra GSR Testimonial / Comments: Ordered my Phearable chip for my Integra GSR w/ Skunk2 intake manifold, intake, Hytech race header, exhaust, etc. I was skeptical at first from different people's opinions on "basemap" chips, but after emailing John I decided to order one. The car runs perfect and idles better than stock . I also noticed a decent pickup in mid-range power before V-TEC. If you're looking for a chip for your setup I would highly suggest talking to the guys at Phearable.net   Name: Donnie Crawford Location: Cincinnati, OH Honda-Tech Username: delsoldon Vehicle: 93 del sol si with a 2nd gen JDM B16 swap, intake/intake mani/header/exhaust. Testimonial / Comments: I purchased a Phearable.net ecu for my jdm b16 swap from Phearable.net. The ecu provided an amazing gain in my top end power. I was very pleased with the product. Thank you Phearable.net!   Name: Harley Location: Cerritos, CA Honda-Tech Username: All-Out Motorsports Vehicle: 92 civic VX w/ B18C1, i/h/e/im. Testimonial / Comments: I got my order three days later, I noticed a huge increase in mid-range. ECU came out great just as I ordered it. I recommend Phearable.net to everyone. Thank you Phearable.net!   Name: Michael h Location: Hawaii Honda-tech Username: abnaasefmb Vehicle: 90 civic si with xsi swap, intake/header/exhaust Testimonial / Comments: I called john way to late(I did not know he was on the east coast) and he called me right back. I let him know I was interested in learning how to tune using crome. He helped me pick out an ecu with the bells and whistles that helped make learning easier. I did not buy it for a performance upgrade, but I did notice significant gains in the mid-range. The ecu came fast and I was burning my own chips within a day. phearable.net, and crome get a big thumbs up from me. So don’t waste your time reading any more of my comments just call john and download crome.   Name: Anthony "Mario" Crea Location: Somewhere on Earth :-) Vehicle: 93 Civic with a B16 setup for SCCA autocross competition in the club's Street Modified class. Testimonial / Comments: When my teammate and I completed the engine swap and moved to the new class, we were in need of a chip that would allow our SOHC-VTEC ecu to think it was a DOHC-VTEC unit. We tried a few other chips from other tuners, and while they worked, they only gave improvements in one area (waaay up high in the rev range) and dramatically hurt the low and mid range driveability; which is very important in autocross competition. I actually stumbled upon John Vega's website while looking for a solution on Honda-Tech. Phearable.net allows the buyer to specify exactly what is done to the car both present and future. He looks to see what is being done with the car; and John tailors each application to suit those needs. In the end he suggested that a mildly modified OEM P30 program would best suit our competition needs... And it has! I trust John, and I'll never look elsewhere again.   Name: Chris Storck Location: Tampa, FL Honda-Tech Username: BoostedCivicSedan TampaRacing Username: InsaneCivicSedan Vehicle: 94 Civic Sedan w/ built B18A turbo, SC61S, 1000cc injectors, phearable.net p06 w/ Crome Pro, etc... Testimonial / Comments: Not only did I purchase my chipped p06 from John (which might I add looked just as good as a factory ecu, great work!), But he also tuned my car... For the knowledge this man has, and his pricing, he can not be beat. I was, and still am VERY satisfied with the way the car runs. He was presented with a challenged when I installed the 1000cc injectors, but he conquered it, and the car runs like a dream... Not only do I get 335 miles to a tank of gas, but I have plenty of power at my disposal with just the press of a pedal. Having this man tune my car was one of the best decisions I have made... I give two big thumbs up to John Vega (mtber) @ Phearable.net... He gets my approval, and my trust anyday!!! (And I dont trust many people when it comes to my baby) -Chris   Name: Bill Coleman Location: moreno valley ca.

It also came with all the parameters that I wanted. i picked up alot of mid range and top end power the car made 165whp & 118ft.lbs it was a way better then the 158whp & 116lbs I would recommend them to anyone looking for ecu tuning.   Name: John Adair Location: Tampa, FL Honda-Tech Username: 0x64 Vehicle: 1992 Honda Civic CX, ITR rear lower sub-frame, ITR suspension, Rear disc conversion, Stainless steel brake lines, 1999 B18b, CP 9:1 forged pistons, Eagle forged rods, OEM head gasket, OEM rod/main/thrust bearings, OEM oil pump, OEM water pump, OEM timing belt, OEM seals, Custom grinded camshafts (Intake: 11.2-11.5mm lift 270-280 degree duration ; Exhaust: 10.5mm lift 260-270 degree duration), Supertech titanium retainers, Supertech dual valve springs, Supertech valve seats, OEM cleaned/treated valves, OEM valve guide seals, Skunk2 intake manifold, Skunk2 cam gears, Hondata intake manifold gasket, OEM exhaust manifold, OEM lower exhaust manifold, OEM exhaust.. Testimonial / Comments: John came through big for me. I was left in a tight spot with a fully built motor ready togo and some time left for my standalone wiring harness to be finished. John's base map started the car up the first try and got me thirty miles for him to street tune it. The street tune took about an hour to hour and a half. John was very friendly and offered input on everything. I now have about 850 miles on the motor. I would personally recommend him to everyone for ECU related services and Crome Pro tuning. Thank you John!   Name: Randall Mattoon Location: Warren, NJ Vehicle: 97 Civic DX coupe with a T-25 turbo, 2.5 piping on intercooler and exhaust. Testimonial / Comments: I purchased a Phearable.net ecu for my custom turbo setup from Phearable.net After placing my order I received my ecu within 2 days. Superfast shipping, i was extremely pleased. The ecu got my car running again after I installed 450cc injectors. John took the time to explain to me what i needed after i told him what i did and what was happening. Not only did he help me to finalize the sale but even after i received my ecu i still had a few questions and he took the time and patience to help answer some questions and find other products. He even provided me with links for the datalogging cable i was having trouble finding. I was extremely pleased with the product and the perfect customer service. The ecu was so clean on the inside. If there is any questions send John an email and he will help you make the right choice. I will recommend him to anyone and everyone.

Testimonial / Comments: After placing my P28 chipped ecu from Phearable.net my order was with me within 10 days (to the UK).

Thanks Phearable.net!   Name: Mike Schnupp From: Ramstein Air Base Germany Vehicle: 1992 Honda Civic HB VX B18C6 Euro ITR swap J's racing C/F Intake, ITR cat., Skunk2 catback exhaust Testimonial / Comments: I ordered this ECU from Pherable.net recieved in about 4 days which is extremely fast considering most stuff takes a week or 2. When I recieved the ECU and plugged it in, it was amazing. My buddy has a hatch with the same swap and he also has a chipped ECU. His ECU is from another company though. I pulled him pretty good and got a good car lenth on him the ECU works wonders. A++++ ECU and A+++++ Service Thanks again John   Name: Blake Barr Location: Pensacola, FL Superhonda Username: 98vtec Vehicle: 1998 Honda Prelude Testimonial/Comments: John has unbelievably awesome customer service. I recieved my chipped/socketed p28 the week that i ordered it. Not to mention anytime i had a question, he always replied back in great time.

All you gotta do is plug it in. :-)   Name: Jack V. Location: Dallas, Texas Honda-Tech Username:Darknessj Vehicle: 1993 Honda Civic HB w/D16z6 greddy turbo kit @9psi Testimonial / Comments: I ordered a basemap chip from phearable.net and i recieved it 4 days later. Great guy to deal with. The basemap I got from him is great. I took my car to the dyno the other day to get it tuned and the tuner had very little changes to make with my fuel management. I asked him too many questions and he answered all of them for me. Baserun with the chip i got 180 hp 174tq. After tuning i got 195hp and 184tq. Thanks! Name: Eric Sarabia Location: Canoga Park, CA Superhonda Username: snowboardgeek1 Vehicle: 1995 Integra RS Testimonial/Comments: I contacted John to provide me with an ECU that will tie in all my mods together, give me a few HP and Torque, but while still giving me great gas mileage. He designed an awesome basemap for my car, which works great. I still get 30-31 MPG, but at the same time, I gained some great power all throughout the RPM range. For a 5 minute DIY plug and play modification, and for a measly $150, you get a complete ECU that's modded with a basemap that will utilize all your mods, while giving awesome gas mileage and great performance. Thanks again John! Name: Phillip Tristram Location: Carlisle, England Honda-Tech Username: Shima Vehicle: (JDM) Honda Prelude 2.2 vtec Testimonial/Comments: Recieved my P28 chipped ECU within 7 working days of ordering it (To england). The car started first time with no trouble at all. the car Revs better and feels a lot smoother now. My speed restrictor was removed!! . Mid and low RPM's pull better. Car runs amazingly. Can't thank john vega and phearable enough. Name: Nathan Wright Location: Winter Haven, FL Tampa Racing Name: B20.eg Vehicle: 1993 Honda Civic SI Testimonial: I built a strong GSR motor for my hatch that i planned on turboing. When i was finished with my setup I knew right where to go, John Vega with Phearable.net. He had previously tuned a good friend of mines car, and the motor has lasted forever! I set my "Dyno Date" with John and got ready for the big day. Well, long story short, I had an issue with my oil pan gasket on they way and was forced to call it off and re-schedulewith John on a later date. He was very understanding and told me to give him a call when all was fixed. So i took care of the issue and re-scheduled and headed for the dyno. John was EXTREMELY knowledgable about evry single aspect of the car and its setup. The tuning process went like clock work without a single hitch. I couldn't have dreamed of a better dyno session than the one John performed. My car was tuned for Great horse power and the reliability of a daily driver. John has my vote as being by far, one of the best Honda tuners in the country! He is worth every single cent he charges PLUS MORE. Thanks so much John for being a great tuner and such a friendly person. -Nathan Wright Name: Ian Cabrera Location:Miami, FL Tampa Racing Name: B20.eg Vehicle: 1993 Honda Civic SI Testimonial: Hello, my name is Ian Cabrera from Miami Florida and I purchased a chipped ecu and OBDII to OBDI harness from you guys last week around thursday. I had requested certain specs to be added to the ecu in order for my turbo gsr application to work properly especially since I had a car show that same Saturday. Well after connecting the ecu and harness to my vehicle, I was amazed at how well the car started, idled, and performed. It started right away without hesitation. I asked for express delivery and within five minutes, the confirmation for express delivery was emailed to me. I just wanted to thank everyone at phearable.net for their great customer service and professionalism in dealing with customers. It will be my pleasure to do business with you again and all my recommendations go out to you. Keep up the great work! Name: Jimi Banda Location: San Antonio Texas Honda-Tech Username: quest23 Vehicle: 93Civic Coupe JDM B16a all bolt ons. Testimonial / Comments: Installing your chip was like night and day. I thought that it would not make a huge difference but it did. I am very satisfied and I recommend your chips to anyone that is just beginning to socket their ecu and get a little more action of their NA motor. I can imagine what you can do with a dyno.... Awesome chip..easy install. ...great directions.... just all around awesome deal.... this is an upgrade that you can definatly feel the increase throughout the powerband. Vtec is stronger,car is way smoother. A++++++++++ Name: Godoy Location: Riverside county CA Honda-Tech Username: SiR Inspired ED7 Vehicle: 89 civic sedan Testimonial / Comments: First off I want to say THNX pherable.net you guys have great communacation/service keep up the good work. I have a B16 swap with ITR cams, intake manifold, throttle body, DC sports 4-1 header, 2.5 piping, and i noticed a significant power difference with the chip i ordered from you guys. THNX ::Thumbsup:: Name: Andrew Salgado Honda-Tech Username: AndrewAp1 Testimonial / Comments: I along with several friends where I live can tell you and vouch 100% positive feedback for Phearable.net maps. I've ordered TONS of chips for different setups, for me and friends as well. Several different setups I've ordered chips for in the past include: Stock Bseries setups with basic i/h/e. BUILT 85mm Gsr Motor with LS crank, Built head P&P with Jun cams and 13:1 compression. I originally planned to order the chip for this setup and try it out and if it worked, I'd use it to break in the motor and drive it to the tuner, BUT the chip ran so well, that I daily drove the car with it and NEVER tuned it on a dyno. I was still able to get my EG hatch to run deep 12's with this. STOCK Ls/vtec motor with Ram horn manifold and GT35r. This chip was ordered for a friend, and he as well ran deep 12's with Phearable chip. Turbo Single cam with t3 T04e turbo @ 13 psi and ran high 12's. LS/vtec with pr3 pistons and a JRSC @ 7psi. 13.1@105 on drag radials. All times vary of course on the driver and track prep, but regardless ALL of the cars that had chips ordered for the setup were all daily driven and never had an issue with the tune. I still have friends running Phearable chips till this day from 2-3 years ago, daily! Most of my friends have moved on now to different cars, or fully built their motor and aimed for big numbers. Regardless, NEVER had a problem with Phearable chips; and I've ordered well over 30 of them. Name: Matt Worrell Testimonial / Comments: For the services that john provides he is second to none. to be able to take a list of mods and create a basemap for someone over 500 miles away that works as flawlesly as this one has says a lot about the experience and talent that this man posseses. You don't really realize how much simple bolt on parts affect the day to day runability of your car until you see how it was meant to run. I give everybody at phearable.net a big two thumbs up and would recommend if you're reading this now thinking about using thier services, there is no reason to think about it anymore you've come to the right place. Thanks guys :) Name: Mohammed T Testimonial / Comments: I ordered a P28 for my full Integra R hybrid civic eg here in the UK i couldnt find any good mappers, i looked long and hard and eventually found out about you guys. What can i say my car was QUICK! Sounded brilliant and pulled hard in VTEC and this was on a almost standalone engine. Just AEM full intake. Awesome, ive recommended you guys to my VTEC brothers here. (Ordered in 2007). Name: Shawn W Location: Ontario, Canada Vehicle: 1999 Integra GSR Testimonial / Comments: After finishing my B18C engine build (cams, intake manifold, overbore, milled head, JDM ITR pistons, etc.) felt the car lacked some midrange power so I sent my P28 ECU to Phearable for a little fine-tuning and they really delivered. The car pulls so much harder all the way to 9000 RPM - it's like a totally different machine and it's all thanks to John and the guys at Phearable.
