are performance power chips worth the money. if so what is a good brand. currently i have a E303 cam with twisted wedge heads, longtube headers, xpipe, typhoon intake, 70mm throttle body......

i have heard they are a waste of money but its hard to believe they would stay in business for so long if they were i guess if people don't really know.... anyways any help is appreciated

stupid people are a wsate of money....generic chips are what gets bad reviews.....dune tuned chips are the best way to go...........they can see how and where you A/F ratio needs adjusted on the dyno useing a wideband o2 sensor so you get max power.

Yeah - generic chips MAY get you some gains, may not, but probably are not being to nice to your engine.

Get a custom tuned chip to match your setup and remember to get them retuned when you make any major (or even some minor) mods.
