I am in the process of getting money together and getting one of these to unleash some hidden HP, but I have my doubts. Is the main reason for these chips to cure driveability problems? I have read previous posts and most people have ordered these chips to cure certain problems (idle surge, overheating, pinging etc) and I just want some extra power. My driveability problems arent as bad as others, so now I am thinking that a JMS chip may not be for me. Also, since my car is a 94 it is equipped with this terrible computer and I was wondering that if I did, in fact, get one of these and experienced some improvement in power, is it going to temporary? Is my great computer going to learn from the changes and return to its normal routine? Also, one person, only one person has said he has gotten a full 1/2 second off his quarter time from one of these, but what about everyone else? I need some real track times here. I am picky about what I buy. I do not like spending money on mods unless I will be able to "feel" the difference. Thanx.
