SLR Motorsports performance chip?

Talk about modifications, or anything else associated with performance enhancements. Have a new idea for performance/reliability? Post it here. No idea is stupid! (please use Detailing and Appearance for cosmetic ideas)

SLR Motorsports performance chip?

Post by Gaskintg »

Hey, I have a 2000 SSEi, and I came across this performance chip that said to give up to 50 hp and such, is this honestly worth my time and money. Can 69.99 really buy this much horsepower? Or is it a scam. Thanks for the input guys. =]

After 1995 cars no longer have 'chips'.

It's more than likely a 10 cent resistor replacing your air intake temperature sensor.

Get an Intense programmed PCM or just have yours tuned.
