Same crap, pretty box. But hell, they say +20Hp or your money back. I say go for it.

I have some actual chips that I can't use anymore if anybody wants one.
Really? anything that would work for a 2000 civic?

I saw that same item and just past by it 'cause I didn't a name brand that I recognized. And even if you get your money back, they won't repay the shipping cost.

I say pass...

I've seen the big brand chips on eBay before. They don't go on too often, and when they are on eBay, they're only a bit cheaper than buying from a performance shop.
IMO, I'd rather just buy one from a performance shop since there isn't a big price difference, and at least you know you'll get it.

Yea, I hear ya. I found a performance shop but I have never stopped by. Reason being is because I feel inferior to it... ya know what I mean?

Never feel inferior to anyplace! Remember, you have the power because you have the money.

Well, I got them for a p28, but if you find that they will run in whatever ECU you have then gimme a holler.

I was dumb enough and bought that "chip" it's only a resistor that you put into your wiring under the hood. It looks like a trash bag tie really. Not worth it.
