Hey All,

Can those of you who have purchased performance chips chime in and let me know which one you chose and why and if you happy with your decision?

I just got my XA and this is the first upgrade I am looking at doing to it just because it seems so easy and simple.

Next upgrade would be exhaust I think

Thanks All

there is no performance chip for our cars other then the .40 cent resister that they sell on ebay for 15 dollars

 

I thought that preatty much every thing is the same for the XA to the XB. So the XA has a differnt harness then the XB for conecting the computer. There is a quit a few chips that are for the XB.

 

This is the one I was kinda looking at:

It claims to give a small 15-20HP boost for like $30. Is this and other like it just junk then and do they end up doing more harm than good?

Thanks Again

Too good to be true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Put it to you this way, if this chip was as great as they say, everyone would have one and would probably be raving about it.

15-20 Horses for $30? Yeah right.

A good chip will cost you a bit more. Unless you buy a copied chip, but that's a little sketchy.

It's your car, mate, but you get what you pay for.

Buy it, check it out and let us know what you think. Like he said you get what you pay for. If it is so good then why would people be buying 4-5 hundred doller chips?

 

heres what it hooks up too

"The unit will install in one of the listed existing ECU sensor buses.. Air Intake Temperature Sensor or Coolant Temperature Sensor."

 

If something sounds too good to be true, there's usually a good reason for that...

But - to try to steer things back on topic - I'd be curious to hear about folkses' experience with performance chips, whether $30 or $500.

 

my buddy had a chip in his zx2 was very happy with it...my bro had a hyper tech unit for his 2001 ss camaro and it was crap...most chips are very nice but if i were to use a chip id also get a vafc/afc unit along wiht it ...or do hondata ...
