no he was a grammar bug (little does he know lol, grammar doesnt exist on the internet)

OP chipping an ecu usually means you have a modded engine

and you chip your ecu on a modded engine because you need a modded basemap: fuel, spark timing, redline, vtec eng. etc

getting a chipped ecu wont do anything beneficial to a stock engine

Many people claim to have good experiences with mail order tunes on chipped ECUs... My personal experience was poor with the mail order tune running worse than the stock tune... Getting a chipped ECU when you have mods is really no substitute for a dyno tune...

If you are running a stock map on a stock motor and just want to add launch control that should be fine though...

As for what to add so your engine "doesnt mess up" I'm not quite sure what you mean...

you should be chipping your ecu because you added power to your motor, not the other way around.
