There is no universal "chip" that will be good for this engine. Especially if it's stock (cold air intake or header doesn't count as being modded). And especially if it's a dpfi.

If this were a modified 1.5 ie. different pistons or cams, then you would want to get it tuned, not just a blind chip. No matter what information you can tell someone about your car, all someone can send you is a half-decent basemap.

BARELY. You need cams, raised compression, etc to even take advantage of a header. Otherwise its not going to do a damn thing but look better than a stock manifold. And a cold air intake adds like 3hp. Oooooo! And you would be lucky to even get that on a d15!

A ractive header on a dual point is quite a bit different then a custom $1000 header on a 2.0L 12:1 v-tak.
