Heard of a Chip good for up to 30 hp,Have to find out who its made by.A chip seems like a good idea for these things.As Engine swaps (302,3.0,4.0) seem like a pain

All I have to say is do not under any circumstances buy one of those modules off of Ebay. I got ripped off by it, I figured hey.. $20 and it's mine. It messed up my B2 so bad, it made my engine idle in drive at about 1700 RPM's, then if I had it in neutral or park, it would keep going up until about 5k RPM, and when I tried to drive, it would almost hop as if I was a newbie driving a manual. And when slowing down to a stop, it would often die as a result of engine flooding, I could smell the gas in my exhaust. Remember, power costs $$$, and it is not $20.

when it comes to hp, I don't look to my BII. I just drive normal and get good gas mileage. The price of gas is too high to worry about more hp.
