Are you in need of enhancing the performance of your car by installing performance chips? Do you expect the performance chips to improve the performance of you Chevrolet?

Chevrolet performance chips are a good solution to get the best out of your modified Chevrolet. They are able to monitor the different components of your engine and give a feed back to the engine computer to perform its task better. They are more useful for cars modified with aftermarket accessories.

Chevrolet is the bestselling car of General Motors. It has a range of vehicles from subcompacts to small trucks. They are very popular in North America. Chevrolet became the main competitor of Ford in the early days of car manufacture and is still preserving its position. It is a car fitted with an engine control computer but still there is room for performance upgrades. You have the option to install an aftermarket air intake or even engine performance kits.

As it is the case with almost all internal combustion engines the super charger is one of the key engine components that decide the performance of a car. Chevrolet is no exception in this context. If you have done any modifications to your car, may be it needs a boost to the air intake. You can install aftermarket air intake tubing for better performance. Even you have the possibility to have a super charger chip installed.

When you install Chevrolet performance chips, what happens is that they will monitor the performance of the various parts of your engine and will give a feed back to the engine control computer to perform better. When you drive the car you will feel that your car is smoother in every aspect. This means it performs better and you are going to save on fuel. To enjoy this, you need to install Chevrolet performance chips.

Performance Chip Tuning contains lots of information about different upgrade options as well as Chevrolet performance chips; you may visit them for more information!

The Options for Tuning a Diesel Engine

There comes a time with many vehicles that you feel the need to improve the performance of the engine.  This may be a requirement for further performance, or just a wish to achieve better fuel economy and mileage from your car or van.

The art of diesel performance tuning is quite different from tuning a petrol car, mainly because of the requirement of the diesel fuel injection system, and the lack of an ignition system.

One of the easiest and most effective tricks is simply to change the program which determines how much fuel to inject, and when.  By injecting exactly the right amount of fuel into the combustion chamber at the right time in the cycle, the engine can produce a cleaner and more efficient burn, and end up running smoother, faster, and with better economy.  That assumes of course that the manufacturer did not optimise the engine as well as they may have done when the car came off the original production line.

It seems that few engines are that perfectly optimised in original form, so the owner is left with a choice of which system to use to achieve the desired result.  There are two options here – either to get the original “chip” in the car (the one that contains the “map”, or the programme which works out how much fuel to inject and when). This process is known as re-chipping or sometimes re-flashing.

The other option is to buy an extra box, sometimes known as a “piggy back box”, that effects the way the main chip controls the engine, without having to actually alter the fuel map in the original chip.

Of course opinions are divided as to which is the best type of system.

Re-flashing the original chip means you do not have to add in any additional parts, or make any additional wiring connections to the engine.  The prospect of re-soldering the wiring loom of a car for example would be enough to put off all but the most dedicated enthusiast.  Professional race teams usually have a variety of chips or programmes available for their engines, or out of car systems which can easily re-programme or optimise the fuel map between practice sessions.  However for most of us that kind of equipment is completely out of reach, and of course once an engine chip has been remapped, you cannot easily go back to the original system if you don’t like it!

A “Piggy back box” or “diesel tuning box” (widely available for most popular CDTi or TDi diesel models) provides a similar answer in a different way.  The better ones are very easy to fit, and require no reprogramming or fancy electronics from the user. With proper connections they can be clipped into the loom in a few minutes, providing simple basic instructions have been provided.  The smarter systems also “learn” over time, so not only do they apply a better optimised map to the car’s performance when first fitted, but they also improve that map to accommodate the idiosyncrasies of the individual engine.  And of course being a plug in unit it’s also very easy to take the thing out again, if you sell the car, want to try something else, or just think it doesn’t work.

Traditionally either type of tuning system has been accompanied by concerns as to the reliability of the engine.  After all, if an engine was designed to produce 100 Ps power, how would it respond to putting out 30% more power?  It must be said that most production engines are highly under-tuned, making them good for significant increases without damage.  However the answer seems to rest on the system you choose.   It is a well designed system that gives the engine just the right amount of fuel at all times, you should experience better performance and economy with no loss in reliability.  If the tuning system were to deliver the wrong amount at the wrong time, then it is possible that engine damage could occur.  The better systems including the German DTE Systems brand offer engine warranties as well, allowing these kinds of concerns to be overcome.

So as with most things it comes down to quality, but with the correct selection there are significant improvements to be made, and for very little real effort or cost.  A final word is that you should check your insurance policy too, as some are not in favour of after-market parts being added, so make sure first before you make an irreversible change and increase the performance of your diesel engine.

Dynamic Tuning 2in1 Performance Chips?

Has anyone had any experience with this chip? I'm looking to get one for my 2001 Ford ZX2. I found it on Ebay and are made for most vehicles. -Positive feedback, 100% guaranteed, etc. Look at it here... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2in1-PERFORMANCE-CHIP-FORD-ESCORT-ZX2-1990-2003-2003-02_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33597QQihZ015QQitemZ250248106682QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

Not worth it in the slightest.

First, you have the several hundred negative feedbacks that the seller has.

Then you have the other several hundred feedbacks that just say "Can't wait to see how it works." Which means, they haven't even tested it.

Then, you have the fact that it's basically a generic chip...as stated in several feedbacks.

Also, chips will only rearrange the performance of your car. They will NOT add to it. You may gain horsepower on the top end, but you'll lose it in the lower rpm. You may gain gas mileage, but lose horsepower. Etc.

Nevermind the fact that it says it will force your car to run at stoich levels. Not all cars are designed to do that. Some need to run rich, or a little lean.

These things have been around for a long time, and they have never been worth it.

And ultimately, you need to ask yourself: What kind of performance can I really expect from a $10 item?
