All his feedback is from hon-duh owners! The hp gain was probably in their head. For $20 I doubt it is safe or even does anything for that matter! Beware if you do buy.

I wouldn't trust it. I'm sure it screws with your timing or something. Fucked timing + boost = new engine.

The fact that it says 88-91 is a clue that it's crap. There are two different computers in that year range, and if this chip worked with both of them, it would be for 87-91.
