What is a performance chip? Why buy one?
Most modern vehicles use computer controlled engine management systems that actively adjust things like ignition timing and fuel delivery to keep your vehicle running efficiently. However many factory systems are tuned conservatively for normal road driving and to keep a high margin of safety for the engine. Performance chips can be added to your vehicle to give a more aggressive state of tune for improved power and performance. With more aggressive ignition advance curves and leaner air/fuel ratios it is possible to see large gains in horse power and torque. The best part is you do not have to make any internal engine modifications to see these gains. Simply add your performance chip and you are ready to go. And if you wish to sell your vehicle you can easily return your vehicle’s ecu to its original programming.
