like 40-60 hp but then again tune it so you can spray a little safer and make sure it is a wet kit

You don't want to spray squat with a "skunk 2" chip in the car unless you want to see little chunks of your pistons stuck to your spark plugs. Those chips throw a lot of timing into a motor and will wreak havoc on the spray.

Get a real tune thrown in the car with nitrous in mind and you will be a lot better off.

I say just get it, if you don't like it take it off and re-sell it. I had a 75shot hooked up to my b16 and it felt pretty good. I'm guessing high 13's, but that was in an eg hatch

you can use nitrous with the chip you just have to have an electronic timing device retard the timing a couple degrees when it sprays. I used to have a chip in my p28 to run my jdm b16a, with a zex 55 shot. I bought a msd ignition setup with a retard control for when I spray. no problems in 3 years. and yes a 55 shot will be night and day difference.

$200 w/ purge, and he's gonna install it? thats a good deal. if anything pull that ecu out of there and put in a new one. that chip probably isn't helping you any anyways.
