Hey,
You can easily find tons of different kinds on ebay for all makes. Everyone says they dont work and are garbage. I dont know though because many offer guarantee's and there are some sellers with good feedback regarding these chips.

Be funny for some odd reason, that they actually worked, but because no one tried them, because they sound f**king stupid as hell, we dont really know.....wait what am i talking about, go fill your tank with chevron, that'll help better than a performance chip haha

Yeah not the greatest advice, I'd go with Hondata.

so for only $8.96, ill have a 60hp increase with a total of 20 more mpg?

157whp + 62mpg = $8.95

I'd look at this one guys feedback, quote"Just a resistor tells the ECM that the outside air temperature is 32 degrees" False reading are going to screw something up. Don't do it. Go k-pro or E-manage.

 

[jimlo5990]

will the kpro work if i have an automatic though?? i don't have a maunal

the spark plug non fouler gives a false reading so you can run a straight pipe without throwin a cel

Damn, I think k-pro won't work on a/t. Either swap to a manual or use a piggyback system is your opions.
