94 Expl. chip upgrade?
Anyone done an aftermarket chip upgrade? I am considering doing this to my 94 manual, and was wondering if it's even worth it. I've already done the intake and exhaust. What's your input?

I removed the factory intake/filter box, and installed a 3in cone-type hi flow filter. Similar to K&N, but a hell of a lot cheaper. On the exhaust side, I removed the original muffler, and welded up a free-flow turbo, with larger outlet diameter. With these mods, I picked up a little bit more acceleration, with better tonality (it actually sounds like a man's 4x4)

I have a '93 that I added a K&N type filter, magnaflow cat-back exhaust, 66mm throttle body and 70mm MAS and noticed quite a bit of difference. I would definately recommend the larger TB and MAS. I then added an ***** chip and noticed another slight increase. IMHO I thought it was worth the $$$.
