Does anyone have any experience with power chips? I have a N/A VL commodore, with no modifications. Would a chip such as this http://www.powerchipgroup.com/chips/chip.asp?c=1&cid=Hol0043 be beneficial? Or is it just a waste of money?

I was thinking of doing that to my N/A but instead im using the $$$ it would have cost me towards building up an RB30ET....

Hmmmm i thought a lot more people would have been putting powerchips in their N/A's. Seeing as though exhaust and extractors can cost up to 1,000, the powerchip is sounding good.

powerchips are pretty good. even if ya car is a manual, you use the auto chipped computer(doesn't work the other way though). The auto computers deliver a bit more fuel, and run a higher idle speed, this means MORE POWER 8) 8) 8)
