anybody out there familiar with these performance chips that they advertise on e-bay claiming up to 20hp gain ... ( Pro Choice Performance, Racing-X, Must-C and the like) ... for 30 bucks it sounds like cheap hp ... if they do what they claim to do. Regards ... Irv

I heard of this company as well -- only compliments
However, be aware that most performance chips
require that you switch premium fuel.

... eBay chips were always a scam. Heck, I don't believe in the
legitimate chips either -- most of them require an upgrade to
premium fuel. I would only recommend a performance chip/
ecu reflash if you owned a vehicle that already called for
premium fuel, or if you had no regard for your ROI (is the extra
money you spend on premium fuel over the life of your vehicle
worth the 5hp gain)

Stick with the I/E/H formula (intake/ exhaust/ headers) on ALL
vehicles for the best gas mileage and performance results.
Of course, every vehicle will have its fine-tuning options, but
I'm not a car expert -- I like to stick to the basics.
