Default ECU Chipping? How? What chip? and How much $$ and HP gain?

I want to know about getting my ecu chipped. Should i buy the mugen, spoon, or what chip for my B16?

How much does it cost to get an ecu chipped? Is it worth it? and what are the HP gains?

I want to hear about your cars that have been chipped and how much it cost and your experiences?

I'd suggest doing other modifications that would require a chip first.

Go to PGMFI.org and do a whole bunch of reading!

How much horsepower or torque you gain by "chipping" depends how far off you threw your configuration from what a stock chip would expect the engine to be.

What with the fact that you have a "fully buil B16 with COMPLETE bolt-ons", the fuel and timing requirements should be pretty far off from stock.
