1998 Mustang Cobra Chip question.

the cheap ones work simply on the principal of tricking the computer into thinking it is colder than it actually is so the computer will advance the timing. I would shy away from these because if it advances timing too much it will predetonate and bad things will happen. I reccomend getting a more expensive programmer with a tune for your your car. Yes they cost more but there is a lot more development done to get you a good safe tune that will make power. They also help with future modifications, if you need less timing because you installed a supercharger/nitrous you can. I have a Diablo Predator chip for my 03 GT. It datalogs, adjusts timing/fuel, fixs speedometer if you change gears or tires among other things. Another chip to consider is a SCT excalibrator which does everything the predator does.
