i think if you get a chip and a remap from some one like super chips it will make a diffference... I read in max power about 13 bhp!!

Read up on how "chips" work then come back and answer your question yourself

Thats how you know its bs.

I wouldnt bother with a chip, a remap would be the way to go but not until you have done everything you want to, to the engine. Go for an enclosed induction kit, manifold, decat and cams.

i know ppl slate chips
my friend had his Corsa 1.8 SRi chipped.
it went from 125bhp to 140bhp and gave him both print outs

sounds like a reasonable gain?
