I would buy one of these tuners tomorrow if it was available. Myself and a few other Vue members have been trying to do ECU swaps to try and find an earlier ECU that isn't limited in 1st gear (these things really are beasts when they hit 2nd). Even without a tune, the K&N air intake adds nearly 12HP.
As stated previously, these engines aren't just used in the Saturn Vue, They're also in the Honda Odyssey, Ridgeline, Pilot, Inspire, Accord, and the Accura RSX, TSX, RL, and the engine has been on Ward's 10 Best Engines list for 3 years.

K&N may claim 12hp, but in reality, you can cut that in half.
It doesn't matter what the engine was used in, it matters what the PCM was used in. Nothing. Vue and thats it. If it was the same as the Hondas you'd be able to use Hondata to tune.
Also, the RSX never came with a V6, you're missing the TL, and the version in the TSX is a newer generation. AND WTF is an Inspire?

One more...for what it's worth
2004 Saturn Vue with Honda 3.5 J35 engine. (that's what used to be called a Hybrid
)
Still plugging away at this forum hoping the Diablo
guys will do us the honor of opening up the capabilities of our engines.
TO: whom it may concern.
IF the engine were unlocked (so to speak) it would be a cheap and logical mod for Honda owners looking for engine swaps and could be used on off road/racing/drifting vehicles too.
LOTS of Possibilities and Vue engines sell cheaper than Honda engines when buying from salvage or folks parting out their wrecks.
Come on guys. I made my case.

Re: 04-07 Vue Redline & V6
Please to god make a tuner for the vue redline! It's so weak in first gear because of the governer. Getting killed by lots of lesser bs... these things rip when they hit second especially when it's like mine and has 230k miles. It slips into 2nd and tricks vtec to kick in eairly. Frekin sweet. I bought a d. Sport tuner for my 300 srt. Amazing stuff guys. Please make one for the honda 3.5 vue. Crappy gm ecu is holding back that motor like no tomorrow
