More horsepower!
Hey guys,
I am looking to make my 06 pony package a bit more powerful. Some of my friends have been telling me about chips for the cars that would add 40-50 hp. These "miracle chips" sound like, well, miracles! I would love to get one of those but I dont know if they exist. Do any of you know of any ways to make the car faster? I already have a JBA exhaust on the car. I was leaning towards a CAI with a chip or tuner. Let me know what you guys think. How would you make your car faster (other than a supercharger) and how much hp would it add?
Thanks a lot!

RE: More horsepower!
you're right about them being "miracle chips"...wont give you 40-50 hp. however, if you get a good CAI and a good dyno tune, you could add up to around 30hp (atleast on the GT's). not sure about the v6's. if you are looking for a quick 40-50 hp, you're right, go get a S/C or even a 75 shot of nitrous.
for an idea of mods, take a look at my sig...that got me up to 330HP to the wheels...granted, it would have been a lot cheaper and easier to go buy a $6000 saleen supercharger and be pushing 420HP to the wheels

To the OP, there is no such thingas a "chip" for these cars. Get a CAI and a tune, start from there.

You're putting 330 to the wheels with an intake, headers, and a tune? I'm most likely missing somthing. Because with those mods i cant see you above 300.

Hmmm.....
No on older cars the only way to tune them was with these chips. Tuners area relatively new concept when you hear pepole talking about chips its just like us talking about our SCT or Diablo.... its a new better advanced technology

Funny, we are running the same mods yet you seemed to squeeze an extra 30 hp to the wheels then me.

330 is pretty high but then he could have had a 315 or so HP car from the factory...
