Thanks for the info Vic....
Good information..

Its great to see that you got that much of an improvement from your 96 tbird.

Unfortunately, I have yet to personally see anywhere near that kind of performance improvement from a "mail order" chip mod in an otherwise stock manual tranny GT either on the dyno or at the track.... reguardless of the chip manufacturer.

You will see some sort of improvement on a dyno tuned setup, but on a stock car.... is it really worth the price of the chip and the tune?

I for one don't think so, and until I actually see any performance data to the contrary, I will usually recommend other mods than a "chip" on a near-stock setup.....

Once again, this is just an opinion of a crazy old man...

Once again, thanks for the info Vic.... Its good reading....
