Without F/I or higher compressoin, there is absolutely no use for a chip. It won't do anything for you

^+1.... unless you have an auto and you plan on getting a venom 500 or something... from what I've heard, it reduces delay before the car downshifts.

okay, this might be a stupid question, but what the hell are you doing going fast enough that hitting the governer even crosses your mind?

Well, you can get a chip from http://www.phearable.net/usdmchipkit.html
That place makes quality chips. I'm not sure if they do autos but, you can try.
