    Bodge it and see chips aren't the best thing in the world TBH, all engines will be different on some it could improve things, on others it could make it worse. upto you how you spend your money but it can be put to use elsewhere, do you really need to go to 8k ?

    best u can get is chip wizards.

    failing that.any that are mapped to suit ur engine will give gains. the chip thats in is a mass produced 1, as are the engines, but evry engine will be diffrent, so the effectiveness of the map will be different. if u see wot i mean.


    ideally a chip mapped to suit ur engine, and any mods on ur engine, as again, mods will create diff results on diff engines, is the best u can get....and for 350 is a fukkin bargain really, for the work thats put in. needs to be mapped on the rollers or a dyno tho to get the best out of it.

    AFAIK you can't map an EPROM, you can put maps on them, but can't map them to suit a particular car
