There are no performance chips. You have get the computer itself (PCM) reprogrammed. WillOverkill does PCM programming as does ZZP.

Once my scan gauge arrives I'll decide if I'm going to keep my ZZP or go to Will's.

there are NO performance "chips" that will do anything to the performance of your car besides possibly hurting it.
