    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.
