Default Chipped?

I was wondering if anybody has a performance chip in their car. I found some online but they don't seem legit because of the price. If anyone is, what do you have and where did you get it?

As far as I know, the aftermarket never came up with one for the Saturn S series of cars and I do not know for sure whether there is even a capability of using one. My MOPAR fuel injection conversion has nothing that can be unplugged thus nothing can be "chipped" as there is not way to plug anything in. And other than cursury, I have never looked for anything for the Saturn.

Okay. I found some online but it says it does a few things like hp and mpg, for $80. That doesn't seem really legit. It says its for Saturn S-series too.

Ayup - them advertisements on the InterNet say dammed near anything. Unfortunately, here's the bottom line in performance chips for your Saturn -- THERE AIN'T ANY

All that vendor can do for you, is make your wallet lighter

The only thing those things will do is lighten you wallet. I've seen too many people try them only to realize they've been had.

Okay thanks for the advice guys. I'd rather not spend money on a piece of plastic that will do nothing for me, atleast I didn't spend money to buy my Saturn lololol

I saw that, I forgot to ask about it. It looked pretty cool. It works like a turbo doesn't it? Somewhat like a turbo atleast.
