Default Get a chip?

Hi I just have a question, this guy I know is always telling me 'you need a chip for that car' 'when are you going to get a chip? it would make your car alot faster' Well I have heard of people getting chips for there car and everything, but can someone explain to me, what exactly a chip does? and how does it work? I dont really know about it but I really dont think its going to make my car alot faster like he tells me, he has an Integra and hes like an idiot. Thanks

go to this site http://www.hypertech-inc.com and itll tell u all about it.....thats not the only chip available but itll give u a rough idea

the chip just hooks into your car's computer, itd be a very easy instalation i think...hardest part would be gettin to the computer as far as i know

most chips just work with the computer to retime shift points, rev limiters and can free up some restricted power.

They change the timing a little as well as adjust fuel delivery. In addition to the above mentioned.
