Performance Chip?

Hi, I am I.G., I recently joined the Toyota Nation Forum a few day's ago and I've been reading some of the topics and this Forum seems pretty cool. Anyway I own a 1998 Toyota Camry V6 3.0, about 1 year ago I had a Kazuma SuperCharger installed and recently, I had a Rod Millen Air Intake, TRD Sports Muffler and the TRD Sports Suspension w/TRD Lowering springs installed and I love the way my camry rides, I'm currently looking at adding a performance chip by (JetChip) is there anything I should know about before getting one of these performance chips? Do they really work? or will I be wasting my money? Could you please advise? Thank you.

I wouldnt waste my money on JET CHIP... Their a bunch of scam artist... They basically, fool the computer to think its getting alot more air than it normally it should. This creates alot of problems.

The only company that actually reprograms ecus are TECH TOM Japan ( G-Force is their US sister company). But, it sad to say that because of the new OBDII ecus and chips used. They cannot flash or retrive the information from the ecu. It requires the code to pull the information from the chip. But the only company that has that information is Denso. And turst me they wont give up the information because they wouldnt want to soil their relationship with their number one custom ( Toyota ).

I suggest just getting a Apexi S-AFC and have it tune properly. But, this way is just another band aid but its better than the JET CHIP. Good luck
