    okay seriously lets put these stupid chips to rest. THEY DON'T WORK. excuse me for yelling, but it has been discussed many times before these chips are dead technology, and gains felt well be purely psychological as the ECU will simply correct the abnormal fuel levels

    Look at the post count folks. If you can't stop yourself from posting like an asshole, then don't post at all.




    OP, no. Chips don't work regardless of claims.
