I have a set of Autothority chips that I ran since 1998...no issues whatsoever. They are version 2.7's and as long as you run them as intended..ie 15psi, stock turbo, w/o boost enhancers I feel they are totally safe. I ran my car with a boost enhancer for over 10k miles on it w/ no problems as well though...they get a bad rep when people start modifying beyond what Autothority intended. It certainly woke up the car though, and it drove perfectly with them installed. Let me know if you are interested - I have no use for them (80 bucks shipped?)

Hey sam,
Thanks for the info, I'd love to buy yours, but I was just offered a great deal on some (autothority) chips. I'm allready buying a fender from this guy so it would just be easier this way.

Do you know how much HP you where pulling w/them? 220rwhp sound about right?

Dan87951,
With all respect, i would buy the chips from sam, but i got a better deal from a great guy.

BillW if you know him Danno recommened his post on testing multiple chips a while back.

I'm sure they are real.
