    Looking through the bargain section, new to the forum and these cars. These "Tuner Chip - Performance - Best Value - 75 Horse Power - Easy Install" are all over the places for like $20. Last time I checked you couldn't get 75hp from twenty bucks but was just going to see if anybody has had that kind of luck with these so called chips.

    No, just no.

    Tuning software is the only way to tune a vehicles computer. Be it HP Tuners or DHP for our cars.

    Exactly what I was thinking, but had to see.. I already have a ZZP PCM and am planning on going either HP or DHP later on.

    It's a scam. It's a 37 cent resistor.
