Cool Prelude Computer Chip?!!!

Im trying to increase HP on my 96 prelude si, ive search through ebay and other sights looking for a RELIABLE ecu chip for my computer. ive been told by reputable sources that chipping the computer will give you a big increase in HP at a fraction of the cost, can anyone help me out? give me pointers or show me a true place to purchase such a thing? thanks a lot

Most of them have to be soldered in, void your warranty and give you around 10 hp, for the most part they simnply raise fule curves, air to fule ratios, and remove rev/ speed limiters. but its not like turbo chargin you engine.

dont buy off ebay. if u want to chip your car have it done on a dyno tube or else they are just guessing the air/ fuel mixtures and etc which inturn will make ur car worse
