I got the Superchip. Very happy with the added performance. Keep in mind that the chip advances the timing and you must use 93 or better octane gas and with the gas prices this does add to your cost of driving. Plus I have a hard time keeping my right foot out of it. The only thing I didn't care for was the fit of the chip in the computer box. I guess they make one chip to fit many box's and on mine the only thing holding the chip in place is the duct tape. The chip don't set done into the opening like I think it should. But I do LOVE it.

Definately the Superchips superchip.
SixPac- I took a piece of the scotch pad stuff used for cleaning the prong cut it to the same size as the chip and then made a slot where the chip could stick through. then I was able to install the chip, using the scotch pad as a type of gasket. The pad gives so you can insure a good mount but it also gives the chip some more support.

Panic, I had an outfit in Florida make the decals for me. On the web it's Stripeman.com and if you contact them talk with Kiven, he is the one I worked with.
Boxman3, you have a great idea for installing the Superchip. To bad I didn't keep that after I installed it.
