    Chip or turner

    I want to give my car some more hp. Don't know to get a chip or self turner any suggestions on which one to get and where to get them at

    by far the preferred method and shop is a handheld tuner setup by Blue Oval Chips. Lonnie's customer service is legendary.

    85 4 door 351 Civi Crown Victoria - Summer daily driver, sleeper in the making, and wildly inappropriate autocross machine
    160KMs 600cfm holley, shorty headers, 2.5" catted exhaust, 255/295 tires, cop shocks, cop swaybars, underdrive pulley, 2.73L gears.
    waiting for install: 3.27's, Poly bushings, boxed rear arms, 2500 stall converter, ported e7's, etc

    06 Mazda 3 hatch 2.3L 5AT (winter beater that cost more than my summer car)

      Even if my car is stock it will still be helpful in gaining some hp

        Yes. You can usually expect 20hp and 25 lb/ft of torque from one of Lonnie's tune. \

          By the way, what year and make is your car? That usually helps.

                The car's onboard computer system makes a big difference with tunes. You have an obd II system which is great (and easy) for tunes.
                I run a SCT Xcal3 with a tune from Lidio in my Marauder. That made a huge difference!
