    Are there any performance chips for my 07 base GP that are legit? Most of the ones i have looked up have reviews on them about being scams. does anyone know of any chips that actually DO what the description says?

    NO! get an 04/05 PCM and get a tune, the end.

    Right. A tune doesn't always mean on a dyno.

    everythings better dynoed, so they can monitor the real world performance of the car...although that also costs more money and a lot more time...also involves much more in depth tuning and without a ton of mods and bottom end work not really worth the money and time invested for what you get out

    I'd rather tune on the street...you get way better results that way then just romping on a car and then backing off pull after pull...you can tune for stopping, stop/go traffic, highway cruising...get what I'm saying? That's just me though.

    i like street tuning as well. that way the car shifts when/where you want it when youre actually driving it. you can change enough from a dyno to a street tune that youd be surprised how different they can be.

    huh, well i'm pretty new to electronic tuning as far as that goes. My idea of tuning is adjusting timing and changing your jets on the carb lol. So i still have much to learn as far as that goes...that and next summer i would like to get a tune on my GP instead of just buyin a intense pcm or equalivalent
