Well with just headers the car respectively makes an extra 12-14HP full exhaust and intake maybe another 5HP so with this chip you should be close to 42-44HP gains its not ridiculous and its very expensive to get there I mean headers+exhaust+intake= $1200-2000 depending on what good deals you find + VR chip $700 so a total of $1900-2700 for 40+HP thats an expensive gain but it sure beats $8k from ARMA and their 100hp gains supercharger

Mind you all that I'm a novice when it comes to cars but after 6 years of driving this I can definitely 'feel' a difference and the Dyno put to rest that it just may be a placebo effect.
It works. As vividracing mentions I've only got a week on it. Let's just say it doesn't help fuel milage as I've been punching around town constantly. It's more than throttle control, which I looked at years ago, it's as they say 'mapping' a better route than the original timing/restrictions placed on the 2GR-FSE engine. I don't hear that giving up, when it seems it could do more, at the high RPM's as I did. It's just more fun.
I plan on having it at Hot Import Nights Nov. 22nd at Phx Conv. Center. I'm lucky to have vivid in my backyard.
