    +1, I agree with circmand, you probably wouldn't notice a difference and it could cause ECU issues. Without the proof of a dyno graph, they can't prove what they claim. For the most part, if it was a safe/vaiable way to tune the engine, wouldn't ISUZU do it?

    I think chipping trucks works better because the engines are massive, capable of a lot of power and are tuned differently from the factory for towing/gas mileage rather than HP.

    I chipped a subaru (stock 2.5 turboed boxer engine) and it only gained 10HP and lost gas mileage. That chip cost $695

    Seems like 1 of those ones you see on ebay and other sites like that saying
    15HP INCREASE, $25, Best item you could ever buy bla bla bla

    But all it is, is a resistor sending a different signal

    Thought of getting one for my old car at one point until i did some research and all it ended up doing was giving the signal a false reading, so it would give it more fuel


    As what Vxorado said thats basicaly the same thing that happens

    Im with the others on this

    And the fact they have the page set as Isuzu Vehicross and you hit the year and these like even 1980s in there rofl if they were gonna sell it correctly theyd have it all done properly

    Yeah, it's a scam. When they ask for the year of your Vehicross, I put in 1995. It gives you the same output whatever year you put in. Scam all the way.
