I LOL'd when I read the discription for that...!

Gain 60hp and save 3-4mpg and lower emissions!!! All for only $69, previously a $399.99 value...

While that particular chip seems cheesy to the max I am sure there are other chips out there that will indeed help with performance on 2.5 and 3.0 cars. I don't have much experiance looking into that catagory but this one at least uses actual software changes and the discription is something that really will increase performance.

Cars are tunned to safe values from the factory with fuel milage in mind. Altering the peak limits during diffrent modes of operation can gain you alot of improvment over stock. Now you will be trapped into High grade fuel as timing requires it and under throttle it will use more of it. But, there is no reason to shy away from performance chips if you can track down some reviews and such before you buy.

If it sounds too good to be true it is.

$1 per horsepower is crazy cheap lol
