Default Chip Performance???

Does anyone have a chip installed? I was wanting to know if there was any performance gains and if it was worth the money? Who is a recommended chip seller and how much do they run...any help is greatly appreciated.

Don't bother if you plan on doing further stuff. If I was you I would do an air intake and maybe some other small stuff, then go get ls1 edit tuned to your application. :cheers:

As far as I know there is no "chip" for the C5. I assume you are talking about the type where you open the computer and insert an actual chip. However, there are programers lke Hypertech, Predator and LS1 Edit which plug into your diagnostic port under the dash and enable you to make adjustments.
