If you guys could provide me with the top 3 chips I would greatly appreciate it! The APR gives you 45HP and 80lbs torque...do any other ones come near this?

Year might help. Also APR, GIAC, and MTM are the popular ones on this site.

GIAC and APR are the most popular here. I would go with the one that has a local distributor.

from his post i'm guessing he means increased torque/hp figures.
