Let's see the dyno chart. Some so called chips actually cause the engine to lose power at the low-to-mid rpm range.

dude....there are no CHIPS....the only chips you got are ruffles....

JnR are designing (designed) a ECU which will give you ~30HP/TQ....and get ready to shell out 1400-1500 for that....

so for the last time....NO CHIPS....
