  • Performance Chips.20-25hp plus?

    Will a performance chip hurt my engine? :?:
    GOT GAS?

    Probably.

    Don't buy one - they're a huge scam. All the "chip" is is a 2 cent resistor.

        Don't do it... Save the money and put it towards something worthwhile... Like a Mazda 323 engine swap where you WILL see a 20hp increase...

          if you were talking about a REAL reflashed computer or different EPROM for a turbo car, yes, 25 hp is a realistic gain. On the festiva's original B3? Won't do a damn thing.
