I too just ordered one from them. I will have it by the end of the week. I was assured, and I even checked with Superchips, that they are a acredited dealer of the name brand "original" superchips. I checked on it myself because I was skeptical that they were gonna sell me some cheap no name chip. But everything seems legit with them. The people there are really helpful, and will answer any questions you have. Hope this helps. I too will post my review of the chip this weekend

I tried one for three days for some reason my car did not like the chip... It started to chatter on exceleration. They did offer to reprogram it because it excerarated my timeing to much so I sent it back to them. They are very nice people but I dont think the chip gave me enoght for my money. Since I plan to to do more mods to my Navajo I desided to hold off on the chip of now. SinceI ambout to spend money on kat-backs mas and trotlle bodys I might wont a custom programed one later on. Try the chip if you dont like it they have a 30 day money back return policy...

I got the chip today, and immediately installed it. Once I got it installed, the car wouldn't even turn over. It would sputter, then just die. I thought the connection was just dirty, so I cleaned them again. After I did this, the car turned over, but it was misfiring. I called to see what could be wrong, and they said that my EEC codes probably don't match the chip. They think this is because the factory set new codes for it or something. I was a very disappointing day for me. But SmartyParts is nice enough to refund my money.

I have a Hypertech chip in my 92 EB and it's never run better. The truck has 125k on it and runs like new. The one thing to try when installing a chip is disconnect the battery.
