    So here's the deal.

    They claim up to 40hp and 8mpg. I don't know much about these performance chips, but it sounds fishy. Still, for $65 if I could just get 10hp and 2 mpg that would be well worth it.

    What do you guys think? Has anyone used these or have additional info on them?

    Chips only work on diesels since Diesels can actually be tuned for more power

    I have heard of people getting some gains from those $400 superchips.

    get a URD MAF-CAL instead. actually works, and you can hook it up to a computer and tune your truck.
