Chip Upgrade

I'M JUST NOW STARTING TO UPGRADE MY CIVIC AND AM LOOKING FOR A CHIP TO GIVE ME BETTER PERFORMANCE. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS? OR ANY OTHER PARTS THAT WILL HELP ME OUT. I ALREADY HAVE INTAKE AND EXHAUST. SO ANYTHING ELSE WOULD BE GREAT.

RiceBuRNeR will become famous soon enough

The jet chip and the Venom piggy back are the only 2 I know of.

BTW: whats up w/ the damned caps lock?

You can't tune the chip so you don't want it to be your first modification. Decide whether you want to go N/A or FI first. If you want to boost then you can't use the JET chip. If you want to go N/A then you should do all of your bolt on's first and then get the JET chip so they can tune it based on your modifications.

I heard that the chips are one of the only things you can feel the diference in. I thought about getting one for my DX because I have the AEM V2 and engine back exhaust. Maybe it would do some good. I just don't have 250.00 or the time to leave my car sitting for a week.
