Default Performance Chips.....

So I've been thinking about chipping my car. I've got a 2002 accord ex 2.3L 4cyl VTEC. I was wondering if you guys think chipping it is really worth it? And if so, which chips are out there that you guys would suggest getting? Or should i just take my car to a programmer and have him re-program/add stuff on to my computer and do everything that way???? PROS and CONS???

Don't get ebay chips. They will make your car run much richer and kill the car. I've heard good things about unichip but other than that not sure whats other cg users use to tune their car.

ohh really? do you even know where the chip goes and what it modifies?

not saying the chip works however you can buy the same resistors at radio shack for 99cent and modify you intake sensor. "chipping" if you wanna call it that. i researched this before made a slight difference, just makes your car run like it does in the winter.
