Question Chip your corolla? 2005 s

Does anyone have a chip in their corolla?
I have a 05 s model and was thinking about putting a chip in it, to gain a little more HP and better gas milage, so they say...........?
Does anyone have expierence with this, or is there a certain brand that anyone would recommend over another, that's best for a 05 rolla S

Thanks!!

intake

I live in Nor cal area where the weather is crazy, Maybe I'll just go with K&N filter for starters instead of the whole cold air setup ..

Thanks!

if you want to get some more power out of your car, and acutally feel the difference, a "chip" or "filter" won't get you those results. An engineered cold air intake design with a header and full exhaust will give a good power increase without breaking your wallet.

A good way to get some extra ponies is an air intake change and a catback exhaust. First step in getting more power is a better breathing engine. You will get some extra low end grunt and a little be gas mileage. Don't go with a chip!!
