Description
Our Stage 1 J3 Chip is suitable for engine conversions or manual conversions on standard engines, with a standard tune. Suitable for all EEC vehicles including EA-AU (all series). Applications could include:
- Convert an Auto ECU into a Manual ECU
- Convert a standard ECU into a Tickford/XR6 or LPG
- Disable / Bypass Smartlock or Smartshield such as when doing an engine conversion, running a minimal loom in a speedway car or bypassing a P1260 DTC even when Smartshield is showing the hand on the dash. Please read our free Smartlock Guide before purchase.
On supply of details of your car, we load a stock tune to your specifications onto a chip ready to for you to plug in within 2 business days – no long delays waiting for a tuner. Installation is simple, and takes less than 15 minutes – see Installing a J3 Chip for instructions.
Use the Order Notes field in the Checkout to supply us with the details of why you are ordering the chip. In your note, please include the make, model, engine and transmission type. You must provide this information, or we cannot process your order!
For any modifications to your tune such as raised limiters, fuel and ignition advance, pops etc see the Stage 2 J3 Chip. The Stage 1 will come with a stock tune.
See related items for a Clip In J3 Chip Cover that can be used to secure the chip in place.
If you have any questions about which chip you need or what you could modify to suit your setup, please read the FAQ or Contact us before ordering.
We strongly recommend fitting this chip with the BMC High Flow Panel Air Filter to suit EF-AU Falcon 6 Cylinder and EB-AU V8.

ED Falcon with a few light mods , but issue was with original ECU no matter what I did I was always getting a 22 code ( MAP unable to be read ) fitted a EL ECU and a J3 to suit what I have done mod wise and now the car runs nicely.

Ford ef falcon with well over 350,000km (odo backlight died) had a smartlock issue where it had a crank no start condition. Was going to call it quits but bought this chip as a last ditch attempt. Followed the instructions and had no problem. Car runs well no with no further issues. Recommend cleaning the points as stated in the instructions for a good connection as these ECU’s are old nowadays. Would recommend this to anyone having this issue.

I have had x3 J3 chips from Jason now. These have been for AU Falcons. XR6 that the smart lock died, VCT that we are racing and needed rev limiter raised and delete smart lock, and a V8 (302W) that had no key (Cheaper than a new chipped key) and is going into a 62 Fairlane. The V8 had been sitting for 3 years with no running put the chip up the ECU and away it went. If your AU has died for no obvious reason then try an J3 chip after checking the sender at the auto. We have had AU’s that didn’t do the gear change properly and swapped with one of the chipped ECU’s and has fixed the problem. Jason sends these to me in NZ. Talk to Jason before you spend $$ at a garage with someone scratching their nose trying to work out the fault @$100 per hr. Thanks for the great advice Jason.

Great product! Does what others promise but don’t deliver. Excellent work T.I. performance, 10/10!

Great performance mod! I had trouble with smartlock and didn’t know that this chip can fix it. Got at a guess 20 to 30 KW of power.

Had one fitted to my XH ute about 10 years ago and it performed excellent. I now have a AU Havoc so I ordered another one to cancel the Smartshield and give it a better tune. T.I. Performance is highly recommended.
Also just let a mate know who is building an A model ute with a AU XR8 motor, and he was also pleased with the service from Jason.
Cheers,
Wayne’s XH and now AU Havoc

The stage 1 Chip I got off you guys was by far the best mod I’ve done to the car by far… truly a great product!
Johan (verified owner) –
Amazing experience!! The product was perfect. The delivery time was lighting fast. The staff were infinitely helpful and friendly.
The chip I purchased solved my problem immediately, after 2 mechanics and an auto electrician tried hard but were unable to figure it out. Overall I give T.I. Performance a 5 star rating only because that’s the highest number the ratings go to (otherwise I would give them 100!). Highly recommended.

Bought this for my EF Falcon to fix my random smartlock starting issue and well so far so good. Postage was fast. Thanks Jason
Brad (verified owner) –
Top notch service. Doing an engine conversion from AU series 2 to F100 and needed the chip to unlock Smartshield. Works perfectly, top service with very helpful staff. Thanks guys!
Ivan Warden (verified owner) –
Great start, followed all instructions and car started first time – no smartshield. Now the thing runs again, great stuff.

What a revelation this is. Get an ECU follow the instructions plug it in, and Bingo! cars starts “smart lock” is no longer an issue and on an economy run 630klms on 64 litres. Not bad considering the ED has a 3.45 diff. Cant thank you guys enough. Great product and helpful advice.
