Question Is there actually a chip for an LS1?

I was just wandering if anyone makes a chip for an LS1 and what they will do for you. Thanks

If you mean like a Jet chip, i think those are for older OBDI cars with PROM chips. Newer computers have the EEPROM and u just reprogram it. But, I suppose its possible someone somewhere makes one?

They do nothing. Use LS1Edit or the new software from HPTuners, everything else is placebo.

There are chips (ie Jet chip), but as mentioned above, they do absolutely nothing.

We have had them on the dyno and there was absolutely NO difference in HP between several of the runs with / without the chip.

Kind of a scam if you ask me.
