Just finally got an email back from Impul after an email I sent them several months ago............

USDM VH41DE Performance ECU, scheduled for development quarter 4 of 2009!

They said they have had many inquires about the US version of the VH41DE, and so they have now decided to go ahead with developing some performance parts for street use.

Hope everyone is as excited as I am!

my guess is it wont do ANYTHING compared to what the ECU's for the early Qs do.

Compare the 30HP that 90-95 Q guys get from their ECUs to anyone after 96 (any make/model). you may see 10HP at most, which is hardly feelable.. No way you're gonna get 30HP thats for sure!

Reason is that the OBDII ECU's are more robust and they dont have that extra safety built in that the early ECU's do, because they can process data more efficiently.... really my guess is it would just raise the redline and change a few other things.

Not trying to shoot the idea down, but i bet overall it will be a $700 waste of money.. Anything that says IMPUL on it has to be more than $500!!

Well actually I found an IMPUL bumper for $300, But again I agree with others there are cheaper ways to get more HP.
