performance chip?
hey guys
im looking to BOOST my hp on my 2001 5.3l silverado, im putting intake, headers, and maybe a chip into it.
ive been looking around and it seems custom tune and chips are somewhat similiar? which would you say is better?
i've been looking for chips online and it seems the web is populated with "50 hp, 50 lb/torque, 5 mpg plug-and-play" chips for $70-$100. that can't be right. i know there are chips that do work, i just cant seem to find them.
any help?
thanks!

We aren't saying this cuz we are butt huggers of Wheatly, Black Bear, Nelson, etc... We are saying it because some of us have gone down the road of hand-held tuners and we can honestly say it's a waste of money.
Go with a Mail-Order tune from one of the sponsors or get your truck tuned locally by a professional and credible tuner.
If you really want a hand-held, PM me and I'll sell you my POS from 5 years ago for half of what a new one costs!
