What about a super chip?
I posted an earlier question a couple of days ago, asking about recommended performance boosters. No one mentioned anything about a super chip. Are they good / bad idea? I'm looking at trying to get the cheaper horsepower as early in the budget game as possible. What are the pros / cons of a super chip?

No 'chip' redo on the C5 
More HP - tune. Take it over to LPE (Indiana), they will fix you up.
Get a new friend - one that knows something about Vettes, especially the C5's
