Getting a chip is one of the best prefromance upgrades for your car. You get a huge boot in HP for cheap. You get slightly better gas millage assuming you won't be getting crazy all the time with your new HP and torque. It is a piece of cake to install, just like adding a new video card to your computer. And you now can use 92 octane and get the most out of it. Chip is mandatory for a Bimmer enthusiast. Get a TMS chip at www.turnermotersport.com

I was wondering if these performance chips harm your engine in any way. It seem to me that this new stress added would shorten the life of my engine. If anyone could give me an answer I would greatly appreciate it.
