Yeah, its called a tuner, plan on spending a couple hundred bucks. Superchips, Bama, Hypertech, Diablosport are the leaders in the industry, any of them will work great. The cheaper so called chips sold on eBay are nothing more than $.05 resitors in a plastic housing that messes up your intake temp readings to allegedly increase power, but in reallity it just causes carbon deposits, pinging, and other problems. Best case scenario, it does nothing other than make you think you have more power (Placebo effect) and make your wallet lighter. It also has the side effect of keeping those crooks around to sell another chip to an unsuspecting victim.
