Default what will a chip do for a turbo integra?

Debating on installing a chip for a 2001 turbo integra. Will this damage the engine even more? Should I first install the Apexi V-AFC fuel regulator and get it tuned? I need something new.

a "chip"? if you have a turbo'd integra you should already have some sort of chip (hondata, uberdata) or at least a ecu hack. I'm not sure I understand, more specifics please?

Just use your VAFC and run the hack or something. This isn't Grand Turismo.

A "chip" is the last thing you want, most chips advance timing which will cause detonation with your setup. A VAFC will help, Hondata will really help.

a chip is good for a NA car
but for a turbo you really want to have more control
on your fuel maps and timming
so I suggest you get something that will give you more
flex than just a set program
look into
AEM
Hondata
Motech
