That is funny, but it was posted two days ago in this thread (http://www.newcelica.org/forums/showthread.php?threadid=3149) . :D

It makes some valid points, but some of the information in it is not right. No chip is going to add 50 HP to a Honda. The f-body guys are probably stewing about that one. It really was time for GM to redo those cars. The engine was beautiful (I'd prefer DOHC like the LT5), but the suspension and chassis were outdated and needed upgrading badly.

hmmm the most i have heard out of a chip 80hp from a chip'd 90's twin turbo 300zx. but that changes alot of things, rev limiter changed, boost changed from 12psi to 14psi, and timing.
