What mods have you done?
CAI, headers, exhaust, not worth it. Cam and heads, hell yeah.

General opinion is they are okay for heavly modded vehichles, but for lightly/ non heads/cam /Forced Induction cars they are sorta pricey for what you get.

To be honest I didn't notice much with the addition of the Chip I have, but thats my opinion.

If you want one, a great place to go to is PCMForless. They are highly recommended and I have heard nothing but great things about them from members of this board.

Well I don't have a whole lot of mods and I've got a hypertech programmer because of my '97. It's not a replaceable chip.
It is pricey about $350, but I got mine from Ebay for$150. Definitely worth it, and I can definitely tell the difference in gain. So check out ebay!
