Nope no difference in performance of the engine however doing this mod will make your rpm meter almost "dead on" so you can get more accurate shifts. It also makes it much cooler since it reacts faster instead of slow drugged effect. Anyhow read those links if you decide to do it. First one is "write up" and the second one is just from a forum to give you more info. I did it and think it's worth the 20 cents. Yes 20 cents to do this mod so very cheap.
Its the rpm meter thats chipped its not a speed or engine hp increasing chip. If you remove your rpm meter from the dash you can see there is 1 blue resistor. I replaced that resistor with another one that has less of a capacity so now the smaller the capacitor the less time it takes to fill it up so the more correct reading you get. Keep in mind if you go with smaller resistor it will start bouncing/pulsing.
@Triple88a you mean a capacitor, not a resistor. A resitor just creates electrical resistance. So basicly you just swap the cap for a smaller value? Good thing i build guitar amps, i have tons laying around =)
@JD0x0 yes sir, capacitor, the original one uses a bigger one to create a smooth buffer otherwise the voltage would drop down everytime the trigger passes so you'd get a jumpy rpm mainly noticeable at idle as thats the slowest the trigger repeats.
a smaller capacitor will lessen that buffer so it would update quicker weather the trigger says 1 or 0.

Where did you buy the chip and how much? thx

Then no gains, just more accurate rpm reading uh
