GAIN UP TO 25% MORE HORSEPOWER AND TORQUE FROM YOUR VEHICLE THROUGHOUT THE MIDRANGE!!! The VENOM 400 Performance control Module is an add-on control unit that features its own micro-controller. This module is connected to the vehicle’s sensors and increases engine performance by monitoring the sensors output characteristics and modifying the input to vehicle’s existing computer. The Venom 400 activates at about 25-30% throttle angle. Upon activation it modifies the input signals going into your computer, in particular the Manifold Absolute Pressure and Throttle Position Sensor Signals. When the computer sees these “modified” signals it will provide a different set of fuel and ignition maps than it would normally provide. The Venom 400 makes the computer use maps that are more aggressive and provide better engine performance. Installation is easy and an be completed in 30 minutes in most cases.


Does it really make that big of a difference?

1 more mile per gallon. here is all the info from a site.

VENOM 400™ Performance Control Module
The VENOM 400™ Performance Control Module is an add-on control unit that features its own micro-controller. This module is connected to the vehicle's sensors and increase engine performance by monitoring the sensors output characteristics and modifying the input to the existing vehicles computer.

VENOM 400™ Advantages
The VENOM 400™ improves horsepower by as much as 25% through the range of approximately 1,000 to 5,000 RPM. The VENOM 400™ is OBD II compatible. Besides a substantial increase of torque, the VENOM 400™ reduces flat spots or delay time during sudden acceleration.

The VENOM 400™ incorporates an 8-bit micro-controller that is capable of monitoring the various sensor inputs and modifying their output at more than 40 times per second.

If you have already installed a performance prom, the VENOM 400™ will enhance the vehicle's performance beyond the parameters set by the performance prom.

The VENOM 400™ is only active when peak performance is required. During normal driving, the VENOM 400™ remains passive until the microcomputer determines that engine airflow and throttle position warrants increased performance. Normal fuel economy prevails while under normal load.

The VENOM 400™ enhances the performance gains achieved by installing an upgraded chip. Whatever the gains are as specified within the chip, they will be magnified through the use of the VENOM 400™.

The VENOM 400™ has an off switch so smog certification is achieved when not racing.

The VENOM 400™ will not trigger the emission safeguards of today's vehicles.

Easy installation in 20-30 minutes with basic hand tools requiring only four electrical connections.

Red cockpit LED indicating VENOM 400™ activation.

Up to 25% more increase in horsepower throughout the power range of 1,000 to 5,000 RPM (where the vehicles red line is 6,000 RPM).

The flat spot or delay found with automatic transmission downshifts, which can be as much as three seconds, is eliminated (when equipped with auto instead of manual).

is this a direct connection through some kind of harness or do you need to splice wires like the vafc's? i read what some people said on the site through the search button, and they mentioned something about MAP and TPS, and i dunno what either are lol, so anymore information would help me out, thanks

It's 2 splices. A splice into your fuel map sensor, and a splice into your throttle body (sensor) in other words it's to know what % to activate.

Basically when you push down the gas 40% or more, it activates and I am sure does nothing more then put a little bit more fuel into your car. It's great though because fuel is what's needed for more HP most of the time.

You can drive under regular conditions, or you can drive it hard, like I do. Check the link down the page to my kamikaze header pics. I have a pic of the venom in it.

easily reconnected, and a wire extension isn't that hard, just find someone who knows their stuff.

YEs yes yes, go to the other products and parts forum and see al the stuff. Then ask them how many people have it on their car. The 3 people that do, like it.

How would it mess up your computer? And it does do something for your ride, power. With more gas being dumped in at a higher throttle body % how would it do nothing?

I was going to get the AEM pulleys next, but I'll think I'll go with the Venom 400. So it only improves power from 1,000-5,000rpm? Or does did it also help you out on your top end? Because that is what I think our cars need. And it makes a pretty big diffrence?
