ok so i've had my chip in for quite some time now, so heres updates as i know so far

i do seem to feel an increase in power, esp throttle response, thats made a big improvement,
i do not smell unburnt fuel anymore, i used to smell it if i sat there and reved the motor a few times,
i can actually break the tires loose in first, and chirp them into second easily,
runs real smooth too, no more skips or stumbles
tomorrow i'll get gas and check mileage, and also i'll swap my thermostat for a 180 and i need to replace my faulty coolant temp sensor

you know how much of a pita it is driving to work with little or no heat because the damn thing runs the electric fan constantly

 

Never seen a chip that the PCM doesn't over ride in time.

 

Nothing a battery disconnect cant cure
By nature the PCM will try to make it run emissions friendly, but you can always give it a kick in the ***...

 

we'll see what it does,
not a bad 10$ investment as it stands though, and if it does override the chip its not a big loss, and i'll find out if you can kick it in the *** with a battery disconnect

 

LOL......Thats one way to deal with it. I'd rather go flashed but for $10 bucks who can complain? What chip is it?

 

just the stage 1, the stage 2 requires premium fuel, plus this is the one i found lol
