HP chip! Good idea Bad idea?

[jaystang44]

So I have heard a little about these so called HP chips. I looked them up and they seem pretty cheap from what I remember. So my question is are they worth it? My stang is my DD and all I have on it is a BBk CAI and other cosmetic stuff. So should I look into buying one or should I not even waste my time and money? I will eventually buy a new car for my DD and put the stang in the grauge for nice days so I do want to eventually super up. But for now I want a decient amount of power for a DD.

HORIBLE idea.

These "HP CHIPS" are 99% of the time, resistors that go in parallel in your MAFS and send false Vdc readings and make you run lean as shit, which yes gives you a few extra hp at the expense of fuggin your shiz all up.

Do the research your self, don't take my word on it.
