Default Jet Chip For NA Supra

I was looking at a jet chip they offer for a na supra (turbo also). I have to send some part in to get it recalibrated, it suppose to increase my hp 20-25%. I was wondering if anybody knew about this part, is it worth it? will it harm my car? Its about 340 bucks, what do u think guyz?

spend your money on exhaust, intake, headers etc

not chips

plus they're too salty and smell funny when they start rotting

nah...i wouldnt get a chip...haha i just had mine reflashed...but...i dont recommend getting one at all....just get an ecu...piggyback for starters and when you are on your way go snag a standalone...start with the basics...intake, exhaust, headers...work your way up... a lot of people think just slapping a big turbo on with nothing else will give them what they want... its not teh way to start and its not the only thing that will give you power...you gotta have everything work together.....just getting a big turbo on its own will leave you with a bunch of problems to start off with... address the problems one by one...but take smaller steps

Question was...has anyone tried it??? I don't think so. I do know that on many vehicles, a chip, or moded ecu can give you 10-25% more power. These are usually done to V8s. I've ridden in many stock ones (I sold cars at Dodge and Toyota for 3 years), and customers have come back in and let me test their 'new found' Horses.

I believe the racing engineers have not spent any time on our older MKIIIs due to the lack of 'recouping' of their $$$ investment. (lack of a volume sales)

im still against dejvid gettin the jet chip...i knwo u have the basic upgrades... but im still against it...but u might say im hypocritical since i had mine reflashed...i had my ecu reflashed because i had a 1jz motor installed... and i had a jdm ecu...so all my readings were wrong and i needed them to convert kph to mph...and all that nonsense...so technically i had mine reflashed so it would be applicable and practical...right now im running a standalone, as for teh jet chip...dont get it..its a waste...in my opinion
