No because pretty much all of them are complete BS and do nothing at all. Especially for $40 And anytime someone is pitching 20 hp gain AND a gain in fuel efficiency from a chip, even more reason to say it is complete bs.

To put in in perspective, with a really good tune, high flow cat, etc on this car you are going to barely see that gain.

Sorry, I couldn't help it. But buy one and let us know the performance increase and then open it and show us what's inside.
