BEST PERFORMANCE CHIP FOR 01 GT

[creilly84]

Hi, I have a low mileage, stock 01 gt, 5-speed. What is the best performance chip on the market? How much do they cost and what kind of power can I expect if any from them?

Car is stock
Future mods: Bassani x-pipe w/ cats and Bassani catback

10-15rwhp if you're lucky. don't chip the car until you've finished with all the bolt on mods. that way you don't have reburn the chip. anyway, i recommend SCT tune.

I have heard they don't do anything for a stock car. Usually people put them on after they have finished modding.

IMHO spend the money on something more worth while and proven like gears or get your x-pipe first. That's the best way to go. I just think most of those chips are a waste unless you are tuning a heavily modded car.

I got a superchip with a custom mail order tune. I told the guy to go as far as he could, and he went too far imo. It bucks a little and pings on 93 unless I use octane booster in every tank. It gave me .25 off my quarter though-I'd say thats as far as you'll get with a tune and mild mods

so you have the t/a with your custom tuned chip? lower the timing to 12 or 13 see if that helps.
