All those "chips" are is simply a resistor that changes the air intake temperature reading to the ECM, so it richens up the fuel mixture all the time. Its NOT a chip by any stretch of the imagination, and keeps your car in "warm-up" mode all the time, hurting gas mileage and emissions. Jeff O. http://www.dsmchips.com Quote:
