    Has anyone tried using one of these chip set-ups? The website gforcechips.com has some rather remarkable "customer reviews" with significant increases in mileage and power. Their claim of up to +30HP, +10%MPG,+30LB-FT and a 5 Minute installation time does have a disclaimer but I thought for only $69 bucks what the hell.

    Don't buy into the hype.
    Don't waste your money.

    Either every other manufacturer of aftermarket ecu's are doing it wrong, or this is a cheap gimmick. Which is what it is. You run a higher potential of damaging your engine, than anything else.
