I have a 2007 dodge charger rt and i noticed alot of people are getting these chips to so called add more power. My question is do the chips really give you horsepower and torque gains you can actually feel? If so, how much horsepower/ torque gain should you get?

Is more of how much you want to pay in order to play. Yes it will change the mapping in your engine unlocking some more extra horses. The draw back is gas mileage, emissions and driveability. When the car comes from the factory is tuned to work in a wide range of conditions that has to meet with the CAFE (Corporate Average Fuel Economy), EPA, and have enough power to please the crowd with smooth driving experience. These types of chips reset the computer to change tranny shift points, add more fuel and many other adjustments that will increase the vehicle power therefore performance is the result of it. All comes to a price, lower your gas mileage, increase emissions and drives less smooth as far tranny shift points and so on.
For the motorheads is a plus, for the average people is not that pleasant. One thing that you have to consider is the whole car is a system. Once you change some, another has to be changed to gain benefit from the previous change. So is a circle that never ends. I suggest computer mapping changes Vs changing any other components. In case that you do not like it, you can revert back in the way it was without turning a single screw. Those are the easier mods, the most convenient, with more bang for your bucks.

Most give off 10-15 horses some more or less. Have to check your vehicle and engine etc.

absolutely, in todays cars where motors are governed by a computer, the chips modify timing and fuel delivery.
each manufacturer will post its own increase statistics.
I would also look at modifying exhaust to less restrictive cats and mufflers, that alone will give a noticeable increase..

Or something better than a handheld tuner, Go to bgperformancepcm.com and get a custom flash, about 100x better than a handheld tuner piece of crap.
