chipping your ECU doesn't really help until you've done basic bolt ons

sorry, luchini is not an acceptable currency in Canada

We take CDN dollars as issued by the Bank Of Canada, and we often take USD as issued by the Federal Reserve of the United States of America. None of this Acme Inc money

Worldcom tried that funny money bull, and look what happened

sent us all into a depression...

I'd seriously suggest chipping the ECU as a last step...

Nice Cold Air intake system, Catback exhuast(2.25inch), cataylic(aftermarket) free-flow, Nice header (4-1), plugs and wires, FPReg, and then maybe a chipped ECU..for some decent gains...for sures you'll see a difference..but thats the step I think...
