Performance chip ?

Performance chip ?

Postby wayne rubel » Thu Jan 24, 2008 5:33 pm

I have been thinking about getting a performance chip along with my new performance air intake system for the 05 convertible.
Are these chips good or bad or worth it? Will I notice increase hp?
Glad to have as many opinions as possible.
Great site. Wayne

do not waste your money on a chip...

as for the intake... injen or cp-e. dont buy a cheap-o ebay no-name intake, also a waste of the green stuff.

If you are talking about ebay then hell no. and i dont even think they offer these for our cars.

search search search, please don't end up like d4008.
did you get your "new performance air intake system" out of ebay? is it an ebay "tornado" or is it an ebay "intake" either way. .. they SUCK.
get a injen intake, or a cp-e intake.

just my opinion man.

Thanks guys . I will take that advice and forget about the non existent chip.
Sorry about stupid questions.
I don't claim to be a car guy. All I know for sure is that I love my Solara. :lol:
