Matthew_McNally Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 Hey hkgs300! :D bunch of link about chipping an IS none of them indicate that this is a cost effective solution - the majority opinion being that this powerchip offers very little performance increase for the money. This link in particular discusses the powerchip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkgs300 Posted July 23, 2003 Author Share Posted July 23, 2003 Hi Matthew, thanks for your reply. I have seen the links, I am also registered for the UK Forum :P However, these links are merely opinions/theoretical thoughts about this subject, but nobody actually installed one of these chips. Comparable chips are also available for other brands, like BMW 323i and 328i and they does add about 10% more power and torque. Sometimes these chip tuning companies offer a money-back garantuee, so I thought that somebody would have tried Too bad there are no such chiptuners in Hong Kong. I would try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
