I recently purchased a J3 chip for an AU skidder, request was for more RPM, speed limiter removal, safety lock removal and general tune up – inquires were responded to promptly and informativly – and the chip was posted quiet quickly after the payment was made – I would highly recommend! By far the best upgrade you can make at an affordable price, this has truely unlocked the inner beast
Jakob (verified owner) –
Finally got one of these for my EF XR6 Wagon after patiently waiting until id got all the supporting mods done. Man did it wake her up! Stronger smoother power right through the rev range, and it actually does use less gas than before!

Stoked as!! My 99 AU Futura series 1.5 (Smartshield update) had a ‘crank,no start’ issue after attempting to start with a half dead battery. After reading reviews I decided to try a stage 2 j3 chip to bypass the smartshield. After ordering the chip and a sticker,the package arrived in the deep south of New Zealand in 5 days!. The chip was easily installed in the ECU and once fitted back in the car it fired up straight away. Great customer service also,Cheers Jason and the team at T.I. Performance! I cant wait to hit the burnout pad again!!

Got one for my 98 xh longreach Ute. Has a 2.5” single muffler cat back and a kn filter. Bugger all mods but with the chip it’s made a hell of a difference. Shifting in the tranny is so much more responsive and the motor pulls like it’s a different engine. Ordered on Thursday arvo and was in letterbox Monday morning. Absolutely worth every dollar and can’t recommend it enough

Fast delivery. Very happy with purchase.

I bought a stage 2 J3 for my pre-smartlock EB falcon.
I used an EL auto ECU and had the smartlock removed, the auto shifts firmed up and and overall tune. I have fitted EL thermofans and broadband intake manifold.
the car starts, runs and drives excellent.
the chip was sent super speedy with express post.
I have used a Ti Performance J3 before in another falcon for auto to manual conversions and they work great.
I highly recommend to others.
cheers.

Ordered a Stage 2 j3 chip for my 96 Ford XG Outback ute. Gave Jason all the specs of my ute.
Chip arrived quick and was easy to install.
Has really improved throttle response and power through the entire rev range.
Also greatly improved my idle with my can and better fuel economy.
I liked it so much I bought another one for my mates XG and fitted and tuned it in under an hour.
We both love our J3 chips now, really bought the old girls to life.
Jason was super helpful and was always available for advice. Top Service and Product.
Bought a Full House Tuning Kit I was so impressed. Cheers Guys. 🙂

I have a Stage 3 cam in a fresh AU motor in my ED futura. It had rough idle and was stalling in gear constantly. It ran incredibly rich and fouled plugs quickly. With a quick and easy purchase my car is a different vehicle. Runs smoother than before the work and has much more poke than before the chip. Definitely a transformation to the car… Thank you

Awesome product, amazing customer service, super fast postage. Can’t recommend Jason and T.I. Performance enough.

I have a fairly stock EL Fairmont – pacemaker extractors, 2/12 inch system. I asked Jason his advice and bought a Stage 2 J3 Chip.
Unbelievable value and it’s a totally different car, shifts better, off the mark I can’t believe it.
Thanks Jason A+++++

Very happy with this J3 Chip.
Ordering and shipping was very quick and I received it within a few days.
Instructions were easy enough to follow, especially glad to have them as I have an AU, which required me to solder connections on the ecu.
Spent a good while cleaning out the contacts which paid off, as the car kicked over first go and has been idling perfectly ever since. I can’t believe how much smoother the car feels.
Performance and shifting is much more responsive, definitely a recommended mod for any E or A series falcon.
My car is a Series 1 AU XR6 VCT, with Di Filippo extractors and 2.5″ Redback catback exhaust.

Rob Flounders (the bloke with EF falcon race rig). Thought I would return a Thank You, and thank your company for the excellent literature available (pin outs).
After fitting chip and trying to start no go nothing not even the fuel pump. Checking a few things, going through all the engine sensors wire continuity to ecu plug all was correct, starting to wonder if T.I. Performance had removed the smart lock. Going through all power and ground connections again, found several associated with HEGOS weren’t grounded. Using your Pin Outs, looking for more info on your site, found two more wires not grounded pin 76, 77 (god knows how it ran without those).
Trying again she fired but was running like you had plug leads mixed up. Taking it for a run down the road (dirt (I live in the country farm land district)), she came on song about 3,000 rpm but still had the rough idle and at low rpm acceleration. Finally after fixing a few water leaks and concluding plugs or injector cleaner in the tank, was idling her with fans off (I never put them on ecu control – but will now), the engine suddenly changed note and started to run smooth as a bird, and revved freely with no miss, then it dawned, choke mode. Both fans going all the time she just wasn’t reaching operating temp. So there is a trick for young players, listen to the experts.
Thanks again and wow this thing is wicked, second gear down low, hit it, and it just barks up and squats side ways right out to the limiter (scary but fun).
Thank you again, T.I. Performance, I am yours through the development of this Race car.

The chip arrived within 2 days, Service so far is fantastic. Chip will be loaded in the next 3 months to my XR8 Engine & ECU in a 34 Ford hotrod.

I’ve bought a stage 2 j3 chip for a manual conversion in my au xr6 and the car behaves like it’s a factory manual. Also I can notice a fair bit more go, especially high up in the revs.
Jason is very quick to respond, very helpful, I’m 100% satisfied with all of his gear and I would say everyone that deals with Jason and his products would be, it’s a big thumbs up from me 👍👍
Adam (verified owner) –
This chip is a must have. Running smoother, more torque, leaner idle, good power through the rev rang. Got rid of that bloody smart lock, and speed limiter.
Dylan (verified owner) –
Bought this chip for my manual converted EL Falcon and it is great as expected. No rev hang, and the custom tune applied is pretty good from what I’ve noticed so far. Had the same chip for my auto EL and it done wonders to the old girl.
Pat Beck (verified owner) –
Chip does exactly what it says. ’nuff said.
NC Fairlane, locked diff, hacked exhaust, EL ECU and J3 chip. Totally destroying tires on the burnout pad in second no problem. Thanks very much 5 stars.
Jason Cleghorn (verified owner) –
Hi I first would like to thank Jason for his very helpful advice with purchasing a T.I. Performance chip.
With buying a Stage 2 J3 chip for my 98 XR8 I found the idle was better, better throttle response was noticeable too. The car is more fun to drive.
Gavin Kane (verified owner) –
Thank you for your outstanding customer service Jason. I recently purchased a Stage 2 J3 Chip and I am 100% satisfied with your product as it has delivered as promised. Improved throttle response and noticeable increase in torque/power overall but especially in the lower to mid rev range. It just gets there faster!! 🙂
Easy plug and play installation with no problems at all. Thanks heaps.
Ron –
My Stage 2 J3 Chip arrived very smartly. I have an EA falcon race car to which I have fitted an AU engine and a 5 speed gearbox, using an auto EL ecu. The chip converts it to manual, and cuts out the smartlock perfectly. Jason also made it run better on 98 fuel, has more grunt out of corners. Many Thanks, Ron

Amazing! Jason was very prompt and friendly throughout the whole process, and the chip didn’t take long to arrive here in NZ with the perfect tune loaded on it.
Car idles better than ever, has incredible acceleration, and fuel economy has gone from 14L/100km to 10L/100, even with my lead foot.
I highly recommend this to all owners of modified Falcons.
Callum (verified owner) –
My order was processed very quick and the Stage 2 J3 chip was delivered very fast.
After installing the fuel consumption dropped by 2L /per 100km which was fantastic, and it seemed to have more go as well!!
Very pleased with my J3!!!
Josh –
Not only was the chip and custom tune great, I am blown away by the customer service provided with the chip. 2 years after I originally installed the chip, T.I. Performance were great offering and assisting me with advice, and really fast at doing so.
Thank You!
Brenton Fox (verified owner) –
I now realise that whoever said the phrase “get in, sit down, shut up and hold on” must have had a T.I. Performance chip in their car. Made a big difference to my XR8 ute. The first thing I noticed when I first started the car was how smooth the idle was. Then I took it for a spin, a lot more torque and smoother acceleration. Very happy with my purchase, highly recommended!
Nicholas Ferfoglia –
This chip is one of the most easy and best bang for buck mods I have done. All questions answered very quickly, and best advice going. So happy with the chip, kicks ass! Now for better tyres!
Dylan (verified owner) –
Item was received very quickly and was just as quick to install. Good noticeable difference with even basic mods, definitely worth getting and will recommend to all my Ford E series mates
Darren (verified owner) –
Much nicer throttle response, seems smoother and better midrange is vastly better. The smartlock bypass stuff also worked a treat, the smartlock still locks the doors and unlocks great too.
Prior to installing this chip we could not even recode a new smartlock button
Cheers

Fitted chip about 1 month ago to my modified ED. Found increase in torque and power, also running smoother and not as rich at idle. Have done long trips and local driving with very good fuel consumption. Very happy with chip and your service, thanks.
Jaan –
Just received chip today.
A very big difference in torque and is exactly the tune I was after.
Very happy with it and the service, Jason putting up with my countless emails!
The only problem now is I want more power!!
sheridan (verified owner) –
Had to put up another as I filled my tank for the first time with the chip installed and I have gotten 200km out of quarter of a tank. I used to get 100km out a quarter.

Bought the chip a couple days ago and it’s already here! Very fast delivery. It has been fitted in my NA2 Fairlane and now I can spin the wheels, before I could only do it in the wet and even then it wasn’t easy.

Bought the J3 from Jason about a year ago now. It has performed flawlessly. Having only mild mods the my car it most definantly has helped the car achieve more power, the tune that Jason put on it was pretty much spot on, the car has a very flat torque curve and was Dyno’d at 180 rwhp.

Used this chip for an auto to manual conversion. Has made my Falcon run like a dream again and runs better than when it was auto (more fun too) Jason from T.I Performance talked me through the whole process and was more than happy to answer the questions I had. 5 stars
Tim Steadman (verified owner) –
I’m very happy to say that my fuel consumption averages 9.9L/100km in traffic, and on the open road it will lean out to 8.6!
Torque has been dramatically increased and it makes nice smooth curves on the dyno. It makes roughly 180-190rwhp depending on the day. This is from a very conservative dyno – other guys I know making the same power on this dyno are showing 210-230rwhp on other dyno’s.
