power programer is easier, but they are about 300 and you dont get much HP. i bought mine to recalibrate my spedo for my 32's, and adjust my shift points. im running a performance tune, and it gives me a bit better MPG.

Fix it till its broke!
I would love a tuner! But alas they don't exist for 2.3's pretty much lol! I've heard it's a mixed bag with chips but that generally they suck...

I've used SCT and DeltaForce tuners...

an SCT Hand-held can be had for $380, DeltaForce tuners can be had for similar money, and much cheaper used...

Both can load tunes over and over and over, I do not like the prospect of chips when for only a small amount more money you don't need to bother with them.
