Send me $150.00. I will send you nothing in return. You save on the installation labor. You will get the same out of your car, and a CF member benefits rather than a stranger.

RACE ON!!!

Im assuming that your car is stock. That being said dont expect any big changes with a chip, however there are some improvments to be had. When mine was stock I used a chip made by Ed Wright. It lowered the fan on temps, raised the TC lock up, raised the rev limiter, leaned it out a little and added some timing. It did make about 1 tenth of a sec. difference at the track which IMO is pretty good considering the cost.
The good thing about Ed Wright and www.pcmforless.com is they modify the tables (fuel and spark) whereas a lot of the other companys dont.
Also www.pcmforless.com will make further adjustments for a miminal charge if in the future you do decide to modify your car.
Long story short, IMO pcmforless offers the best service at the best price. I have delt with others and got ripped off. If you would like further details on who not to use (based on my experience) PM me and I will give you more details.
