is this chip better than getting a hypertech programmer? will a jet chip stage 2 for a 2000 3.8 5 speed work on a 2001? thanks! [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

I had one for a 92 camaro, and i paid 200 for it, I noticed more power from a drop in K&N. I don't know if is better than hyperchip, but I would recomend you get another performance mod and save the chips for after you have everything else. It definantly not worth what they are selling it for.

The Hypertech is clearly better more power and options. I had a jet stage 2 for the 3.8 man and yes it would have worked for a 2001 look at jets site and make sure the product numbers match. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Oddly enough, on JetChips's site they list the same part number for the 2000 and the 2001, I was always under the impression that every year had it's own. I emailed Jet about this, hope to hear back soon.

Differences in the Hypertech and Jet. Hypertech($300) gives you the option to run premium or regular gas, it can set the temp that the fan comes on, it can correct your speedo for gear changes, removes the top speed governer, advances the timing, tweeks the air/fuel ratios and adjust shift firmness(auto).

The Jet Chip($130 from me) will advances the timing, tweeks the air/fuel ratios and adjust shift firmness(auto).

Virtually the same power increase by altering the same things. Unless you really start sinking some money into your V6, Jet Chip would probably be all you need. All of these things can be found on Hypertech's site or JetChips site, www.hypertech.com and www.jetchip.com. Or you could go with the MAFT($250) to advance the timing and alter fuel mix but you have to know a lot about it and use AutoTap($300) with a Laptop(??) to tune it.
