You don't have a chip you have a tuner. Which one did you go with? Who did your tuning?

Those things are fake.. There is no way a chip can give you 300 HP

Check out SCT's flash tuners. hensonperformance.com is a vendor here and they sell the tuners and write custom tunes, for gas mileage, towing, performance whatever you want. He's done my tuning and I've been very happy with the results.

They are getting pretty bold with their claims aren't they, oh by the way jupiterak, it's against the rules for you to try and sell stuff on the forum, you have to be an elite member or vendor to sell things here.
