Hey, I don't know HOW it works, I just know that it does! I have never driven a
chipped car either, but when you can get 20-60 hp out of an given engine just by
replacing the chip, it must work somehow. I have also seen a chip for my Digijet
injected 112 hp 2.1, which will bump it to 125 hp. I have been wanting to buy it,
but never taken the big step.
