Default Performance chip

I'm new here, and have only owned my car for a few months. I wondered if anyone had any experience with aftermarket chips, are they any good? What kind?
Thanks.

Steve Wong at 911chips.com. I have had mine for a year now. The car drives better with more even throttle response. Check out the web sight and do a search here and at Pelican Parts on the SteveW chip. What year do you have and we all like to see pictures. Welcome aboard.

87 3.2. (the most exhilarating car to drive I have ever driven). I.'m not sure how to post pictures. It's probably not hard, but I can't seem to figure it out.

Steve Wong @ 911chips.com
Go to his website and do some reading. Also do a search on
www.pelicanparts.com 911bbs. If you go with a new chip other mods
are recommended.
Good Luck,
Chuck

Check out this Pelican thread for potential performance chip problems:

http://forums.pelicanparts.com/showt...hreadid=221772

Also, check out these web site pages ( www.systemsc.com/tests.htm ) to see what
performance chips really do, & what other problems ( www.systemsc.com/problems.htm ) occur.

Like the saying goes; "There're no free rides in life.".
