Do these work? Are they worth it? (100HP +30mpg)

It is not even a mod chip. Most of those have a 15 cents resistor in them and it can potentially damage your car.
You know that old saying about if something sounds too good to be true...
And if you think about it, if all car owners could add 50hp and better gas mileage but adding a $20 chip (or whatever the price is), dont you think there would be a HUGE market and it would be sold at every wally world and autozone on earth?

Hey guys, take it easy on the new people. With the low end on this thing everyone searches for ways to beef it up at first, then come to realize that unless you go with a turbo or supercharger there is no easy fix. Noob's you do need to search for more info before throwing out a question, as you can tell alot of people will not be very helpful to things that can be easily found by looking around.

Also, chips are tasty.
