Did you know there was another option? I didn't know it was even a possibility. Performance chips. All currently made vehicles have on board computer systems that control such things as timing, and transmission shifting. These computers are programmed lower to maintain themselves for the average car owner who doesn't do routine manual checks of things like fluid levels or the person who uses lower fuel grades in their vehicle. For those of us to who maximum use of their on board computer system, we are locked out because of it being preset for these people. There is a way around this.

There are three type of performance chips available to the general consumer. We will start with the Control Module. The control Module will plug into your electrical system. It stands between the data sent from your sensors and the computer. It intercepts the signal from the computer and makes automatic adjustments and sends the signal back to your computer.

The install of the module itself should take no more than 15 minutes.

The next is the Power Programmers. The difference here between this and the Control Module is the Power Programmer is more of a plug and play device. It serves exactly the same purpose as the Control Module.
The third and last type of performance chip is the Engine Management System. The Engine Management System is a system used to customize your vehicle to your exact settings.
