i didnt know you could chip a near stock 94 LT1? but i found this on ebay..

how hard is this to put on?

 

That is not a chip, that is either a programmer that has to remain plugged in into the diagnostic port, or a microprocessor that is inserted between the PCM and harness to change input from the sensors. And, yes, they do work, but don't expect miracles.

This is what chips looks like:

 

Look at the numbers the guy is giving. JET claims a gain of 25 h.p.? That's a little more than a 9% increase over stock, which is huge if it's real. But his performance doesn't show a large gain...13.76 to 13.63 in the quarter, and from 100 to 101 mph? Woop-de-doo!! You can gain more than that by simply removing a little weight from the car. If thisguy noticed a difference, a good portion of it was probablyin his head. Unless you're racing for money and need every last tenth of a second, I would saveyour money for something more beneficial.

 

ok thanks.. mine is a b4c, and im kinda already putting down better times than a stock or lightly modded LT1.. i just saw that and it made me wonder.. i thought the chips were souldered to the pcm.. thanks for the info

 

uh oh... i feel more "You cant chip 4th gens" arguements starting..

 

lets hope not. i didnt mean to start that up.. there could be casualties

 

lol, word is that you cant chip a 4th gen.. but there are arguements you can. I think they make some chip that you plug in and they have another plug for a programmer but idk. My opinion is its just better to get a programmer and tune it all to your specs over a set chip.
