I have a fastchip stage I....noticed better throttle response and a slight increase in HP and torque. I've heard that auto tranny's get better shift points programmed. But I can't honestly say it was worth the $$$ spent. I will find out when I get around to burning my own PROMS.

Stage II chips require a 160 T-stat, which helps performance by making the car temp stay cooler. My advice is to read the archives on this a bit more or try and find someone who sells a used chip for your car.
