Default PCD Chips

Has anyone used these chips? If these suck, is there another affordable chip out there that works well?

So, when I order the chip are the tunes built in to the chip, or do they have to be put on the chip via an update? How difficult is an install on one of those chips? Was it a noticeable difference?

I am not sure what all it has done to it, I know it has the following:

Cold air intake
Flowmaster exhaust
3.73 gears
Possibly GT-40 heads

I would have to check the heads, upper, lower and injectors. It may have had those done, but I am not sure. It sounds pretty healthy. I am goinf over today to get the new 245.50/16's on it, all the tires are flat. I am replacing the radiator, hatchback shocks/struts and wiper arms (it doesn't have any. I thought I was doing the headlights too, but they USPS didn't get them here on time. Then Wednesday it's off for an oil change, a tank full of premium and a smog check...hopefully it passes.
