RDTiburon username Stauf is part of BSE, we did a brake line/clutch line GB through him some time ago, and it was actually VERY nice.
Contact him, I'm not sure if they are doing everything still.
I'm almost positive though that it's just the "powerchip" setup.

He posted here a month or so ago.
The powerchip has been around for quite some time for us, but, $400 for 20 HP at the most? No thanks. The only users I remember having them wree very very dissapointed.

20hp, that's a 15% increase over the current 136 I make now. Plus, IF they have the ability, they can turn off the rear O2 sensor, allosing us to run headers without the CCEL, bumping up the power a little more. Personally, I think this car with 160hp at the crank would be more than potent enough for a DD.

Well, here's the actual info.
http://www.powerchipgroup.com/interact/dat...asp?pid=Hyu0035
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Datasheets
Your Hyundai Coupe FX 2.0 utilizes a plug-in plug-out chip (EPROM). Fitting is simple and the Powerchip can be installed in about 30 minutes with basic skills and equipment. To install the upgrade software, simply locate the computer and un-plug the standard chip. Place the Powerchip performance chip into the socket and insert fully. Then, close the computer, re-install into the vehicle and start the engine to fully complete the installation process.
In standard form, the Coupe FX 2.0 produces 140 hp and 133 lb.-ft.
Powerchip has a range of chips to suit your car, which can increase it's power to between 152 hp and 156 hp, and it's torque to between 146 lb.-ft and 148 lb.-ft.
The price of the Powerchip is USD $490.00.
In order for us to give you specific power improvements and pricing information, please continue on to the next page. By providing your email address, we will email you a comprehensive ten page datasheet specific to your car.</div>
So, $490, plus shipping, for approximately 15 HP and 32 TQ.
Not worth it to me.
The folks that got it back on HA, if I remember correctly, had some serious issues, and had to send the chips back several times (at their own shipping cost), to get it fixed. Still had CEL's.
Bob, I'm running Maintec GT headers, with no CEL.
What CEL do you have? What's the placement of your O2 sensors?
Here's BSE's stuff.

Looks like the same to me, with the numbers corrected for the ACTUAL HP from the OEM engine.

THis will show you all the links to it at HA.
