So if I were to buy two of those chips I would gain 60whp? Awesome!! I'm also going to need a huge rear wing to go with that extra 60hp.

OP, don't waste your money. People who see the most benefit from chipping are those with cars that were factory turbo. And they don't cost $20 either.

A throttle controller is not the same as a chip. So if you're going to post links, provide an explanation for the OP.

I agree with what else has been said here with one thing to add. Did you notice what his seller rating is??? He has no feedback whatsoever. Not a good sign.
