i almost chipped my tooth today, that was no good.

as stated before, chips are usually crap, you would get better performance by doing some small performance changes, if you can do it yourself, cams is easy and cheep or a new exhaust or just add another supercharger

Yep, I am starting to think that chips are good for eating, not good for motors, but new intakes and underdrives (real improvements) will do much better.
I am curious though, my car is speed limited by the computer to 130mph, I wonder if I couldnt get a ecm from germany for my model and swap it out to get more. not that i can exactly go over 130 every day

Chips or programmers can be good but only from a reputable company.
