Don't waste your money on these. I was thinking about getting a performance chip too, but it looks like these things don't do crap. I was reading this performance chip article about it, and it looks like these things don't work at all

those things are junk, it's nothing but a resistor to fool your engine into thinking it's still cold so it richens up the mix a little. It's a .15 cent part for $30. Almost a big a waste of money as a throttle body spacer, or vortex air swirler, but not quite.

Tell me about it dude. I bought a $40 chip from Ebay and it didn't do crap. It's crazy how companies scam people over these
