175 hp from a chip...[sm=wtf.gif]

unless he swapped in a late model turbo diesel (cummins, d-max, power stroke).....

he won't get anywhere near that with any chip or tuner

i have a friend that has an older dodge stealth v6 DOHC 5 spd, all stock plus he beats the crap out of the car, he said that one of friends that owns a shop and can get parts found a chip that will put his car up to 375 horsepower, i told him that this is crap and the chip is $300. but he dont belive me, i know cars pretty deccent but this is a lil farfetched, so give me your guys opinions
So tell him to buy it, and race him for pinks! Then put the old chip in and sell it back to him!

even with those gale banks tuners, they only give like 90 HP, but around 150 ft/lbs

I think the logical explination for this assumption is the chip is for the R/T Stealth- aka a twin turbo 3000GT which has 320 HP stock I believe and AWD? The chip may be advertised for 375 HP on a turbo Stealth which is much more realistic. Chipping turbo cars can actually produce that 55hp sometimes due to increase in boost and a/f and playing with timing on cars that were mildly tuned from the factory. Clue him in that his car isn't the 320hp Stealth.

banks makes their products relatively mild so they're still safe to tow with...there are other "hot rod" programs though...

this one gives up to 150hp

He might have misread it... He might think it says "can enhance your dodge stealth by 175hp" instead of "can enhance your dodge stealth TO 175hp" If hes serious... then punch in the ***** and race him for a grand.
