Anyone Ever try a JET chip or SURGE Performance Chip on their 8's ??

Ok First off...I know all the chips sold on Ebay are BS...Second I know there a few threads on here about performance chips but none of them talk about the chips I'm mentioning....Third..I know most of you would recommend the Accessport but I figure since these chips/upgrades I'am mentioning are rather pricey...I figure they should work ?

With that said..Have any of you guys tried using a SURGE performance chip or JET Chip/ECU upgrade on their RX8's ?? If so, What were the results ?

Here are the JET and SURGE products I'am referring to:

Did you look at the links ?? LoL....I've had some people tell me they've had results with Jet Products. Although they have piston engines...I figure the company would develop something to work with our cars since they seem to know what they are doing when developing these other chips.

It is weird that JET makes stuff though. They have some stuff on the site. I wonder what JET makes in terms of claims. Cvale127, you buy it and let us know.
