G Force Performance Chip

Has anyone installed the GForce Performance Chip on their 2.4L. I know what the web site says but I want to know what real people say. I need to do something to make this thing better.

Use the dedicated Search function at the top middle of the page. Many comments on this topic. Not much sense on repeating them.

And regarding performance chips and HHR's, save your money.

If you feel like trying one just make it yourself with a 4.7ohm 1/2 watt resister. If my memory has not failed me that is the correct value of the resister used to make the so-called chip. But they don't do much, just make your ecm think the air coming in is colder than it really is.

Cold air and cat back is a waste of money unless you plan to pair them with a tune. Save your money. I'm running a resonator delete with a Magnaflow muffler mainly for sound...I've tried the CGS intake and K&N...besides some noise I really didn't see much difference if any in power. Like I said though...pairing these options with a tune can wake up these wagons.

What all do you mean by "a tune"?
