yes, if it's just a stock map or something it'll run like a stock ecu. if you have a tuned ecu like 88aefc3s it comes down to how good your tune is not the ecu.

it all depends on what's in that chip.
It can be fine, it can be certain death.
Yes there really is that much difference.

Tuning will produce the best results, it's also the only way to make sure that what's on the chip matches your setup.

typical ebay chip - I wouldn't wish those on my worst enemies.

Hi,
I'm running a chipped P-28 in my B16A2 with a T-3 Turbo, the ECU is tuned for the car and it works perfect, the car is set to run 8-PSI boost right now and i'm very happy.
good luck.....

Don't even bother unless you plan on getting it tuned via Crome or ECTune soon. Just a waste of gas and risky

I do not agree with you on this, If you look at alot of what people is using, you will see and learn that most are on Hondata or Chrome, I certainly do not have any problems and i have friends with Hondata locally and same type of turbo setup like mines and they prefer my car the way it is tune because i get better MPG etc.....so go figure.....
Now i'm saying Chrome is the best but its alot better than alot out there, if you want the best then go Stand Alone which is $1800.00 so there you go.....
