does anyone know where i might be able to purchase a chip for a 1998 taurus?...also would it be a good idea to purchase it and install it, or might it damage the engine?
thanks

then you have the standard V6 that came with all the other tauruses aside from the DOHC (duratecs) and the SHO's. I don't know what chips are out there for your engine, cause I never researched them. Try www.tauruscarclub.com for some information and specs of other cars like yours.

i got a standard ford blue supperchip. contact a local chip dealer. you will have to get your pcm code of the inside of the passenger door frame. they will program the "blue"ford chip with the comp number, ship it out. easy to follow instructions. 20 mins tops. the good thing about supperchip is when i bought my 92 sho they reprogramed it from my 96 gl with the vulcan sohc you got. as long as you buy a ford, you have a chip, and you just pay for shipping. www.supperchips.com. it makes a big differance to, you'll see :smokin:
