that's not too bad of a price,i have seen them cheaper though,usually around 80-90 bucks for a good one,but the 6% gain your talking about is going to be hard to feel,thats not much of a gain for the money,id look at some other places before i bought that one,theres more on the market,good luck.try this site they might have some. http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/

No Way!! Don't do it, especially if you own a later model auto. The six percent isn't enough to make a difference and if all it does is modify your fuel/timing curve your cars ECM will see it and correct it back after a week or so. You'd be better off spending it on a cold air kit or a set of headers to help the motor breathe better.

If you think a chip is the answer its not.When you change the base factory specs you will open a can of worms.These chips cause more harm than good.I see this harm all the time in my shop.Please spend your money on something better.
