Re: jet performance chip
They are ok if you are stock. They just alter the spark tables a little bit and turn on fans earlier. Might feel a little difference.

Re: jet performance chip
for what little they do, there's better things to spend your money on, especially if the car is otherwise stock

Re: jet performance chip
Check with tpichips.com. Its always best to send in your own datalog from a program like TTS Datamaster. That way the chip burner knows exactly how your car is performing and what to adjust.

Re: jet performance chip
it looks like the chip burning is for tpi and tbi cars and my '84 camaro is a carb. might be wrong but from the websites i understand that it is for non carb cars
