Default E.P.Rom chips?

I just wanted to know what chips are the best for tuning? :confused:
I just got off the phone with Fast Chip and they guy was kind of rude but he seems he knows what he is doing? So I called Hypertech and the guy was kewl as F and he was very knowledgeable and he gave me allot of information and recommendations on what they do at hypertech? So my questions what do you guys think about these 2 companies or is there a better company that burns chips.
Please let me know because i am needing a chip for my 1991 Corvette that has a D-1 procharger with 10 psi of boost and it is running like :U

Default Re: E.P.Rom chips? (krivera)

Since no one else is answering....
You have a speed density computer which will not adjust well to your modifications. If Hypertech or Fastchips will continue to burn/modify chips for you until they have it running right for 1 charge...it might be the way to go. If they are just gonna send you a chip without you doing a lot of data logging/adjusting, it will be better, but no where near perfect. You could do a better job yourself, but it will take a few hundred $ and a LOT of time learning/experimenting/asking questions. Still not the best answer since your compter can't understand boost. If you switched to a Sy/Ty 747 computer or an aftermarket one like DFI then tuned it youself you could do the best job.
