performance chip?

[CTKGP09]

so i am buying a regrogrammed PCM and an intake and i was wonderin how much a performance chip would help if at all? i found a stage 1 chip from SLP performance but idk if it actually works....and if a chip does help with throttle response, adding hp, and helping gas mileage wut are some good ones???

Performance Chip? There are none. Only thing SLP sells is a IAT sensor that tells the PCM it is getting cold air all the time. Not worth it IMO. Just keep the PCM in it. BTW I hope you didn't get a ZZP PCM.

Hahahaha! Man some companies will say anything tp sell their products. 50hp!? What a joke! And for only 50 bucks! What a bargain

[blueguy]

Oh...no you get something...like a $50 piece of metal to wipe your ass with.

That does not sound like a good deal at all. Now if it was made of carbon fiber:th_drooling:

 

[CTKGP09]

haha ya i didnt believe the 50hp but the 40% throtttle response SOUNDS good but is probably aslo BS

 

[blueguy]

It is BS. Get a Tuned PCM
