I, and many people, don't recommend getting a Jet chip. Others have dynoed and gained 0 hps.

People have actually lost hp (not sure about torque).

Why don't you buy it and tell me how much you gain?


Jet works on other cars, but just not the Max.

I think a CHROME PLATED ECU COVER would give you more HP.

I read a big articale in I believe Car & Driver a few years back. It tested all the plug in chips like Jet and many others, the results were horrible, most cars gained or lost 1-2 hp and some cars begain to knock. Jet chips suck.
