Performance Chip

Has anyone installed a power chip and if so how does it affect performance? Does it affect warranty? Who is the Mfg and product part number?

Thanks

Thanks

The best chips you can find at those prices come in bags and generally have too much salt on them.

Put the words 'power chip' in search and you will get your answers.

However, you can get your "ECU tuned" for improved performance.

Has anyone tried the "Old Vienna" Red Hot Riplets with original St.Louis style hot sauce? They are really good.

The simple answer to that question is ........ yes.
More and more people believe what they are told and then actually claim perceived improvements.
