Performance Chip

Anyone had any experience with performance chips for a 2001 Maxima? If so can you please let me know what the best buy would be.

Thanks, Derek

Chips are only worth it for cars that come with stock turbos. Case in point: Audis.

I'm considering a 1.8t as a 2nd car. I hear chipping that thing is an incredible mod.
