How does a Performance Chip work?
Our Performance Chips work by sending a constant signal through your factory data sensor in your engine that your engine control module (ECM) monitors. This signal triggers the factory ECM to optimize the fuel mixture and timing curve to a more efficient balance. This piggy-back system is one of the safest and easiest performance enhancers available, leaving no trace of footprint behind. Time-tested and proven, our performance chips are guaranteed to provide results.
The performance chip is a dyno tuned fuel map tuned for your specific model vehicle changing air/fuel mixtures, timing and spark. If the vehicle is turbo or supercharged, your performance chip will also increase boost pressure.
“Tuning Chips” that charge only a few dollars do not include the necessary programing: Those are NOT Chip Your Car Performance Chips.
Does the Chip Grade have to match the Fuel Grade?

All Performance Chip Grades will work with any fuel grade. While you will experience the greatest return by pairing the Premium Performance Chip with Premium or Higher Octane Fuel, and it is highly recommended to get the most out of your vehicle, it is not required to make the chip work. All chip grades work with all fuel grades.
How do you install the Performance Chip?
Our performance chip simply plugs into the obd2 diagnostic port typically located under the dashboard on the drivers side. Total installation time is typically 60 seconds or less! After driving the initial 150 miles to allow total programming, your vehicle will be running with optimal performance and power.
No mechanical experience or special tools are required. Technical support is available at 763-370-2746
Watch for imposters! Other performance chip products claim easy installation, but require tools and wire cutting: Those are NOT Chip Your Car Performance Chips.

Will the performance chip work with other modifications or tuners?
Yes, our performance chip technology is a “piggy-back system”, which works with any and all modifications.
