Chip? As in one of those resistors that plug into you intake air temp sensor plug and trick the computer into thinking the air coming in is -40°F. The computer then in turn dumps a ton of fuel into the engine fouling out the plugs destroying gas mileage and ruining the catalytic converter all for an extra 2 HP. Or is it a proper chip that goes into the ecm.
