yes if you chip it and tune it. Dont waste your time or money with the generic chips on ebay. Dont expect large gains either if it is stock you probably wont even notice a difference except on a dyno

u dont need to chip it unless u modify the engine dynamics for eg raised compression/boost new intake manifold ported head bigger valves valve job cams cam gears etc etc ur stock ecu is there to handle the fuel and timing so no need to chip unless u want some extra features like Launch control rev/rev limit change etcetc
btw wat are ur mods?

Skip it. It's not cost effective for the tiny amount of power you'll pick up.
