You'll need a chip only if your car is an automatic. If a 5-speed manual, then it's unnecessary. I'd recommend a speed cal, since it costs less than a chip.

You still need something to correct your speedo and miles regarless if its an automatic or manual.

You can get a speedcal from dallas mustang (manual only) or a programmer like a diablo, hypertech, etc or a custom chip.

Speedcal is the easiest, and cheapest way if you have a 5spd. If you have an auto, or you plan on getting a chip burned for a manual car, they can customize it for 4.10's.
